Chengdu People's Weekend｜Found a Great Place to Escape the Heat at Qingcheng Mountain～
📍A Natural Homestay in Chengdu Super City
A homestay that can be reached in just over an hour by car
The owner is a designer turned innkeeper~ so the design is very good, the environment is elegant, the service is great, and it's very photogenic📷
I initially saw this hotel online and it looked particularly beautiful
The entire hotel covers a large area
You could say the hotel is surrounded by a forest🌳
An aerial walkway weaves through the greenery
The glass walkway observation deck allows you to see the 'blue hour' after sunset
You can leisurely stroll around here for several days and forget all your worries!
The room has a huge floor-to-ceiling window, and when you open it, it's full of greenery
This is the reason I was determined to stay here!
All the layouts are meticulously designed
The butler is also available 24 hours a day
They even helped us cut fruit🍉 in the middle of the night
The quality of the homestay is evident in the details
Hermès toiletries add a touch of luxury!
We also had dinner at the homestay
I didn't expect the exquisite presentation and taste
It's no different from a star-rated hotel! Even better!
ADALINE ACOSTA
A peaceful retreat in the heart of nature.
🌲Step into the Qingcheng Mountain Suxi Qing Mountain Forest Homestay and be embraced by the forest. The air is so fresh you can't help but take a deep breath! 🍃💨
🛌The room design is super cool, with wooden furniture and warm lighting. Lying in bed, it's like being gently lulled to sleep by nature, and every night is a beautiful dream about the forest! 💤🌙 And, the room has great natural light. When the first rays of morning sun come in, you'll instantly feel great! ☀️🌞

Why are people still asking me for a guide to Qingcheng Mountain!!
How many people come to Qingcheng Mountain, just take a trip to Qingcheng Mountain and Dujiangyan, and leave in a hurry after checking in?
Some people don't even know whether they went to the front mountain or the back mountain of Qingcheng Mountain, and it seems that they didn't really experience the true 'Qingcheng's world of tranquility'!
As someone who visits Qingcheng Mountain several times a year in different seasons, today I will share with you a deep/relaxing way to experience Qingcheng Mountain!
.
🚄Transportation: Qingcheng Mountain is easily accessible. There are many high-speed train services from Chengdu to Qingcheng Mountain, with direct trains from East Station, West Station, and Xipu to Qingcheng Mountain Station. Qingcheng Mountain is not large, and you can easily get a ride to any 'scenic spot' you want to visit after getting off the train.
.
⛰️Front Mountain: Taoist culture, the hiking trail is easy to walk, and there is also a cable car. It is a typical check-in style scenic spot.
.
⛰️Back Mountain: The environment is better, with more natural vegetation and waterfalls. The hiking is more challenging, and there is also a cable car. The back mountain is a popular summer resort for many people in Sichuan.
.
⛰️Other Mountains: Besides the front and back mountains, there are also outer mountains. Around there are places like Zhaogong Mountain and Fengqi Mountain for hiking, which are more niche and less crowded.
.
🛕Puzhao Temple: Located in the outer mountains, it is a temple favored by a Hong Kong celebrity, known for its efficacy in wealth prayers. I also visit it often. 🙏
.
🐼Panda Garden: Qingcheng Mountain also has a panda base called 'China Panda Garden', which has fewer people than the panda base in Chengdu. If interested, you can visit in the morning.
.
🍴Food: I have compiled a list of food in Chengdu & Qingcheng Mountain.
.
☕️Cafes: My two favorite cafes with great environments are Kongshan and Shuzaoshe.
.
🏨Hotels: I have shared many hotels and guesthouses in Qingcheng Mountain. This time I chose to stay at 'Qingcheng Mountain Suxi Qingshan Forest Guesthouse' for two nights. Staying here is like living in a forest, a natural oxygen bar, watching the sunrise and sunset, which completely cured my work fatigue...
.
📈If you have to plan an itinerary:
D1: Arrive at Qingcheng Mountain, enjoy the food first, then check into a comfortable resort hotel (those in a hurry can first arrange to visit Qingcheng Mountain scenic area, choosing either the front or back mountain);
D2: Go to Puzhao Temple in the morning to pray (it's more sincere to pray in the morning), you can have a cup of tea at the temple before going down the mountain. After having a meal at a restaurant, you can go to a cafe to relax and escape the heat. If the weather is cool, you can arrange other activities, such as visiting Dujiangyan scenic area, then return to the hotel to rest;
D3: In the morning, you can go to the Panda Garden before ending the trip, or just enjoy the tranquility of the forest at the hotel.

Everyone heads to the bustling city, but I retreat to the mountains
Pause the troubles of the mundane world, give myself a vacation.
Continuous green mountains, smooth streams, breathing fresh air and escaping the summer heat on Fengqi Mountain, the long summer days.
This is a hotel designed by a couple with a shared vision.
Secluded and beautiful.
Hidden in the mountains, with a view of the distant mountains, watching the sunset, soaking in a private hot spring.
There are tea fields on the mountain, where you can pick tea in the spring.
There is also a sea of ginkgo trees, I can't imagine how beautiful the autumn scenery here will be.
Walking on the aerial walkway through the forest, so relaxing.
It leads all the way to the observation deck, looking at the bustling city below the mountain from afar.
It's a completely different world.
The afternoon tea and dinner at the homestay satisfied my taste buds.
Soaking in the private hot spring at night washed away all my fatigue.
The next morning, it was drizzling.
The air was filled with the fresh scent of rain.
Chengdu and Altay also have a unique charm at this time.

Qingcheng Mountain | I found the forest homestay from the movie
I stayed in the mountains for two days over the weekend and now I want to retire even more✨
Away from the hustle and bustle of the city, seeking a tranquil mountain stream
Hiking through the wild, afternoon tea in the woods, falling asleep to the sound of cicadas
Everything is relaxed and peaceful, calm and healing❤️🩹
Thanks to the vast green forests of Qingcheng Mountain
This place is truly a natural oxygen bar🍃
Every view is like a scene from a movie🎬
🎈Qingcheng Mountain is known for its love of green mountains and forest homestays
It's only a 1h drive from Chengdu🚗 and Shangli ancient town is right next door

Spring is in full bloom as I explore the ancient temple village: a symphony of blossoming flowers and tranquility
In the season of spring breezes and the revival of all things, I had the fortune to embark on a journey to the ancient temple village in Chengdu. Nestled in a corner of the bustling city, this ancient village enjoys a peace and timelessness that seems like a dazzling pearl set in the modern tapestry of life.
Following the winding country roads, the flora on either side awakens with the caress of the spring wind. The roadside flowers are shyly budding, their heads bowed in a whisper, and the tender green leaves are adorned with crystal dewdrops, as if telling the story of spring. The pink cherry blossoms, golden wintersweets, and fiery red camellias, all vie to bloom, creating a vivid and splendid spring tableau.
Venturing deeper into the ancient temple village, a mountain-backed boutique hotel comes into view. This hotel skillfully blends traditional and modern elements, retaining the rustic charm of Western Sichuan dwellings while providing comfortable modern amenities. Each window frames a painting; a casual glance offers a view of lush greenery and distant, faintly visible mountains. Here, whether opening the windows in the early morning to welcome the first rays of sunlight or leaning by the window at night to listen to the insects and birds, one can always enjoy the gifts of nature and feel the vibrant life of spring.
Around the hotel, the pristine landscape of the ancient temple village is captivating. Cobblestone paths lead us to explore the mysteries of ancient temples in the deep mountains; the murmuring streams are like flowing poems; and around each bend, tea gardens reveal fresh greenery, with a faint tea fragrance in the air, refreshing the mind and spirit.
In this poetic ancient temple village, spring takes on a deeper meaning—it is the awakening of life, the sprouting of hope, and the yearning and pursuit for a beautiful life deep in people's hearts. Here, spring is not only in the budding flowers but also in every hill, every stream, every blade of grass, every brick, and every tile, quietly waiting for every traveler who loves life and cherishes nature to discover, experience, and comprehend.
