My friend recommended this homestay on Chongming Island ✅Pet-friendly ✅Private hot spring in each room ✅Japanese-style courtyard It's really beautiful and relaxing, and my pet had a great time ♨️The private hot spring is great, the pool is really big, it fills up quickly, and it's easy to use. The drinks in the fridge are free, so you can drink while you soak. The toiletries are complete, the mattress is soft and bouncy, and the duvet is just right ♨️Next to the hotel is the Qianshaowan Art Center, which has a walking path next to a river. If you like jogging in the morning, you can go for a run. The forest oxygen bar is very comfortable. There's also a doll ice cream check-in point, and it's close to the river. The hotel has bicycles, so you can take one for a ride 🥰 ♨️The service is very attentive, and everyone is warm and friendly. The front desk staff will contact you in advance to arrange check-in, and will prepare fruit and lunch for you after you check in.

This is my fourth time in Shanghai, and this time I decided to skip the Bund, the Oriental Pearl Tower, the City God Temple, the Huangpu River cruise, and the bustling shopping streets. Instead, I chose Chongming Island. Located in the southwest of Chongming Island, Xisha Wetland is bordered by Mingzhu Lake to the east and Lushua Town's 10,000-mu orange orchard scenic area to the north. It is the only natural wetland in Shanghai with natural tidal phenomena and large tracts of tidal flat woodland. It boasts a unique wetland landscape, with winding tidal creeks and scattered reed marshes. It is an important habitat for birds and a paradise for fish, shrimp, crabs, and other animal groups.  The beautiful scenery here really made me understand the meaning of "breathtakingly beautiful"! Blue sky, green water, metasequoia forest... It felt like I was in a painting. As I drifted in a small boat through the reed marshes and metasequoia forest, I saw all kinds of beautiful, unknown water birds, some perched in the forest, some flying over the water, and others floating and playing on the surface... Taking photos here requires no editing; any random shot with a mobile phone is a work of art!

To wait for a blue sunset And to find a real-life "Monument Valley" I went to the northeasternmost part of Shanghai - Chongming Island Chongming Island enters the off-season in winter But it is full of natural tranquility I have been to Changxing Island several times before So I arranged this two-day trip Mainly on 🌊Chongming Island➕Hengsha Island ⛵️Sunset It should be one of the most classic sunset spots in Shanghai If you are lucky, you can take a photo of the bridge➕sunset Although we didn't wait for the sunset that day We saw 🌈rainbow clouds and orange-pink sunset The dike and ❤️red and white lighthouse here are also very cartoonish! 📍Marine Surveillance Wharf, near 📍Sunrise Viewing Point, you can also come to take pictures of the sunrise if you get up early in the morning! 🏯Santorini✖️Monument Valley Two small western-style buildings hidden in a single villa area White arches, blue swimming pool, coconut trees and green plants... It's like traveling to the Mediterranean in 🤍Santorini In fact, it is the 📍Lanhai Zhuang Resort Hotel where I stayed this time It is very close to the Marine Surveillance Wharf and the sunrise point 🏡When I walked into these two small white buildings The staggered stairs are like entering a real-life Monument Valley Like a maze game coming to life, it is like a dream There are several types of rooms, each with its own characteristics Especially the room with a hot tub, it is perfect for a relaxing vacation! There is also a sunroom with a grill and an underground bar It is also very warm for friends gatherings or company team building here! 🌊Hengsha Island The most primitive place among the three islands, only accessible by boat It seems desolate, but the oxygen content is extremely high, and it is very comfortable to drive You will encounter various shapes of 💡lighthouses along the way And the most mysterious little white tower has no exact location so far But it is easy to find, just drive along the coastal road on the north side On sunny days, the river surface glows blue like the sea 🚗If time permits, you can also visit Dongtan and Xisha Wetland on the main island Or go to the seaside of Qianwei Road in Changxing Island Country Park

Location: Chongming Island : 1.5-hour drive from Shanghai. P: Compared to other homestays, there are more parking spaces at the entrance, about 5 or 6. All with new energy charging piles. The homestay has only 9 rooms. From garden design and house structure to room layout, everything blends well with the natural environment. You can tell that every corner has been carefully designed. No more words, just look at the pictures. In addition to regular fruits, the welcome gift also includes hot and fragrant osmanthus cakes. The room has drip coffee, tea bags, and a fridge full of free drinks. There is an overnight bag on the bedside table, which contains a sleep spray. I know it's all-natural, but why does it smell like stinky feet when you first spray it? Only rooms with king beds have bathtubs, and only the first floor has a small courtyard. So, you can have both a courtyard and a bathtub in a king room on the first floor. Nearby: Dongping National Forest Park, popular Jujuan Muyi (with alpacas you can feed), popular restaurant: Yao Yao Chi (really delicious, in summer, you can take a piece of fat meat and a rope to string on a branch picked up by the roadside by the dam and river nearby to catch crabs, watch the sunrise and sunset, pet-friendly, suitable for family trips or couple trips, if you also like to go to places far away from the city to relax like me. The homestay has adopted two stray cats, which are released every morning and locked back in their own house at night. They have different personalities, but they are all friendly and well-behaved. It's really enviable to have a cat life that is independent and well cared for!

The designer of the B&B is really good at designing. The garden layout is so exquisite that it feels like walking through the world of Totoro, and it feels like Kyoto in seconds. The room facilities are not inferior to five-star hotels! A combination of Japanese style and American style lawn, it is very suitable for a family or a group of sisters to stay! . ✔Enjoy lying in the room There are courtyards outside the room and outside the bathroom, and the garden is very exquisite.
