I unearthed a hidden gem of a luxury homestay nestled within the Yuanyang Rice Terraces!

❗️The weather during my trip to Yuanyang wasn't ideal. The sun only peeked out for a bit on the first day when I arrived at the homestay. Thankfully, the homestay itself made up for it, bringing my rice terrace experience back into positive territory! 💗Shengtian Manshanlai consists of three yellow houses located in the valley of the Duoyishu scenic area. 👉Figure 2 shows a view from the parking lot looking down. The scenery is beautiful with the sunlight around 5 or 6 o'clock. 👉Figures 3-7 capture the view from the balcony of my room right after check in. Who needs Aichunlan when you have a sky mirror right here? You can go down to the rice terraces and capture photos of the Hani people working. There's a dedicated shuttle service between the homestay and the parking lot, making it very convenient to come and go. 👉Figures 10-12 showcase the room's decor, which I absolutely adored. The simple yet elegant design, with attention to detail in every corner, creates a wonderful ambiance. The room is equipped with a 4K projector, a smart toilet, and a huge window-side bathtub. You can also watch the sunrise over the Duoyishu Rice Terraces from the rooftop. 🌧️The fog and rain on the second day revealed another side of this ancient village, a truly calming experience. I loved sitting by the window, enjoying a leisurely breakfast, especially with the peach blossom tree outside. After breakfast, I strolled around the village, taking some atmospheric photos. The tranquil Duoyishu exuded a gentle yet pure power.
