"Yunnan Travel" Beautiful hotel Travel likes to hide in the mountains to see the mountains, clouds, and trees. The mysterious Ailao Mountain The "Shu Ji Mountain House" hidden in it Is a work of ingenuity worth driving to feel ◎Shu Ji Mountain House Resort Hotel (No. 3 Zhujiacun, Yaonan Village, Jiasa Town, Xinping County, Yuxi City) As soon as you enter the door The big green walnut tree comes into view and instantly heals the fatigue and heat of the journey. Seeing such a beautiful tree Always can't help but want to run and dance under the tree...... One wall of the hotel still retains the details of the old house's adobe bricks. The layout uses many items used by local villagers. It is a more aesthetic Chinese-style design. The entire yard is full of small flowers of various colors. It is full of vitality. I like the color matching and light and shadow of the entire hotel. The light unintentionally sprinkled from the roof adds icing to the cake. 【Travel Suggestions] Two days and one night: day1 check in at the hotel at 12 noon→Rest and rest→Go to Shimenxia in the afternoon→Return to the hotel for dinner in the evening. Day2 get up early to watch the sea of clouds on the viewing platform→Have breakfast at the hotel and go to Jinshan Forest Park→Return. (The itinerary is relatively compact, a bit rushed, suitable for a two-day weekend) Three days and two nights: day1 check in at the hotel, daze at the hotel. Day2 Jinshan Forest Park in the morning, Shimenxia in the afternoon. Day3 get up early in the morning to watch the sea of clouds on the viewing platform, and return after lunch. Families with children are recommended for 3 days and 2 nights, the itinerary is relatively loose, and it will not be too tired. If you take your children out to play, you must prepare fun things, which will make the journey more meaningful. This time I brought a small camera and a hand box from Baisi Childhood. When going out, mom uses a big camera, baby uses a small camera, and records the beauty together. The hand box is mainly used to pass the time in the hotel, and the independent packaging is particularly convenient! PS Be sure to choose above the third floor, the scenery is more beautiful The view from the bathtub of the 12th house on the third floor is too beautiful, right? There was still a misty cloud when I just arrived, and I felt like I was living in a fairyland. There are Western and Chinese breakfasts, you need to confirm when you check in, I recommend Chinese food, it is local beef soup pot rice noodles. Nearby attractions include: Jinshan Primitive Forest, Tea Horse Ancient Road, Shimenxia and other small attractions, viewing platforms to watch the sea of clouds, etc., mainly natural landscapes, not far from the hotel

| Nestled in the sea of clouds is a dreamy fairyland. It is highly recommended for Yunnan travel to set off in the off-season when there are fewer people and the scenery is more beautiful and comfortable. Moreover, Yunnan has officially entered autumn and you can start to enjoy the rare autumn scenery of red leaves, which is exclusive to this season. Entering autumn and winter, as long as the weather is good, you can almost see the spectacular spectacle of the sea of clouds every day here, experiencing the feeling of clouds flowing between your fingers, surging up and pouring down. Nestled halfway up the Ailao Mountain, the Tree House can see the spectacular sea of clouds from the room. The space design of the Tree House is very wonderful. The first-time guests have the deepest impression. We call it 'Space Magic'. Sitting in the space that has won many design awards and watching the sea of clouds surge, there are also seasonal limited organic food.

Homestay: Shu Ji Mountain House Shu Ji is located in the belly of Ailao Mountain, with an altitude of 1900 meters, surrounded by mountains and forests, with a quiet environment and a high concentration of negative oxygen ions, which is very suitable for 'oxygen intoxication' The homestay is based on the original site, as much as possible using natural materials, making the color tone integrate with the surrounding environment. Inside the homestay, there are various decorations of the Huayao Dai, full of design sense, and there are also sweet mountain spring water with five-layer filtration and handmade yogurt prepared in advance in the room. The homestay customer service sister kindly contacted us one day in advance to inform us of the traffic route, climate, and precautions during the stay. There is also a seemingly fat but actually strong cute pet Corgi 'Chou Chou' in the store, who is very well-behaved and will send guests away with the owner every day! Note: There are also attractions such as Toast Mansion, Primitive Forest, and Chu Orange Manor nearby. Because we want to relax a little bit, we didn't go. The attractions are not far away, and everyone can go and play if they have enough time
