Feed fish in the morning, play in the water in the afternoon, and explore the homestay at night with the owner

Bring your kids to Mafang Lanshan Homestay in Xinchang this summer vacation for a super healing mountain stream adventure! The owner personally leads water play and nighttime insect exploration, with a sky full of stars overhead✨ This magical experience is truly addictive~ 🏡 Homestay Highlights: - A forest-style secret spot hidden in Waipokeng Village, Jingling Town, with an exquisitely designed Japanese-style garden - A natural creek right in front of the door, perfect for catching fish and playing in the water anytime (remember to bring a change of clothes!) - At night, the owner organizes flashlight-led night explorations; kids are thrilled to see so many little creatures for the first time - The owner, chubby and friendly, personally teaches you how to photograph the Milky Way🌌 🐞 Special Activities: √ Stream trekking adventure: Follow the owner to find creek stones, with water only knee-deep and very safe √ Insect class: Stick insects and tree frogs in the grass serve as live teaching materials √ Starry sky class: The owner points out constellations, making it 100 times more vivid than a planetarium √ Ancient village stroll: Just 5 minutes to the very original Waipokeng Village 🍴 Culinary Surprises: - Breakfast is famously called "Baozong Porridge"! Made with mountain spring water, the porridge is fragrant and delicious, served with 8 side dishes - Dinner’s farmhouse dishes will have kids eating two bowls of rice each, a taste you definitely can’t find in the city 💡 Practical Tips: 1️⃣ It’s recommended to use Baidu Maps for self-driving directions 2️⃣ Prepare stream trekking shoes, insect observation boxes, and flashlights for the kids 3️⃣ July and August are peak season; there are very few rooms left at the end of summer vacation 4️⃣ The nearby Anshan Ancient Trail is perfect for early morning hikes; remember to ask the owner for a route map This time we discovered that mountain homestays are the ultimate choice for family trips! No need to plan anything, the owner even prepared mosquito repellent for us, truly achieving a relaxed way to travel with kids~
