Morning mist drifts over the blue-tiled roofs, mountain breezes carry the fragrance of tea, and Hegu Mountain Retreat is like a poetic line favored by time, concealing an undisturbed tenderness ✨ Push open the carved wooden door to find bamboo shadows dancing a waltz on white walls, while a rustic tea table holds the clear spring water from the mountain streams—even the bay windows in the guest rooms frame the scenery: layers of emerald peaks in the distance, and delicate flower shadows nearby. In the afternoon, lounge on the terrace in a rattan chair, letting sunlight flow over your skirt. The moment you press the shutter, the birdsong in the wind and the warmth of tea at your fingertips become living snapshots in your lens. True vacation elegance lies in distilling the poetry of the wilderness into an album of never-fading romance.
