My bestie and I came to Guizhou, and the cliffside cloud-sea hotel we stayed at was absolutely breathtaking
Opening the window ⛅️, we could see the sea of clouds flowing right by our fingertips, as if we could scoop up a handful of mist with a single reach. This is Puyu Yeshe Luxury Hotel in Guizhou, a hidden paradise nestled atop the mountains 🍃.
After an hour of bumpy mountain roads, the view suddenly opened up—the entire hotel seemed to float above the clouds, like a forgotten fairyland. Our room had floor-to-ceiling windows on three sides, and at dawn, we were gently awakened by the first rays of sunlight 🌅 as clouds drifted leisurely past the window. The bathtub faced the valley, and while soaking, we gazed at the distant mist-shrouded mountains, feeling time itself soften.
Everything here was so relaxing—the rustling of wind through the trees 🌿, the occasional passing birds, fresh fruits and snacks... If you also want a temporary escape from the city, come to this secret haven in the clouds and let the mountain breeze carry away all your fatigue~
