Just a 5-minute drive away, you can savor dishes prepared by local chefs and enjoy the gifts of the countryside. Shao Jian is a chain of popular homestays. Though Under the Phoenix Tree is relatively small, its perks are just as generous. Guests are welcomed with fresh fruit, snacks, and a special Shao Jian afternoon tea. Handmade dumplings and noodles are served as late-night snacks, and a farewell gift is provided upon departure. The rooms are equipped with star-rated bedding, goose-down comforters, memory foam mattresses, and both soft and firm pillows.
