Since the inception of my business, my company has gradually grown in size. In this season of warm spring and blooming flowers, I thought of taking my company teammates for a team-building retreat. This time we chose the Xiangshan Yafan Resort Hotel🏨. The all-in-one team-building service really made everyone have a great time! Upon arrival, we were treated to a splendid seafood feast😋. After checking in, we were free to participate in activities. The hotel is located within the Songlan Mountain scenic area. It's just over an hour's drive from Ningbo city center🚘. There's a super long and beautiful coastline right at the hotel entrance. Catching seafood at the beach, watching the sunrise and sunset, and climbing the rocks, What a joyful and relaxing thing to do! The hotel's environment and scenery are incredibly amazing. The rooms are in villas, with comfortable, luxurious, yet cozy decorations. Real-life CS, water golf, kayaking, camping base～ We really tried all these outdoor activities. The indoor gym, mahjong room......are even essential activities after dinner! Besides these, the horse riding experience is thrilling and exciting! The seaside camping barbecue for dinner is super lovely. The bonfire party has an amazing atmosphere🔥. Everyone was laughing so hard they couldn't close their mouths👄. Is the company's first team-building event already hitting the ceiling? Hahaha Not to mention team-building, this place is also an awesome spot for hanging out with kids. The scenery is beautiful, it's a hands-free experience, and the sea-view rooms are truly refreshing! Not to mention, my teammates are already looking forward to the next team-building event😂

I just came back from Xiangshan this weekend, and here's a guide and Tips for the Songlan Mountain scenic area: 1. If you're just looking to see the sea without climbing the mountain, the parking lot is very close to Dongsha Beach, just a 100 meters walk away. From Dongsha Beach to the Asian Sailing Center, it's a 7.5-kilometer walk along the seaside plank road, which is quite comfortable when it's not raining. 2. Since it's a free scenic area, there are basically no shuttle buses, so be prepared to walk. If you really can't walk anymore, you can rent a four-person electric cart or a two-person bicycle at the parking lot and Dongsha Beach area. 3. Dining places are concentrated around Baisha Beach. If you need accommodation, it's also recommended to choose the Baisha Beach area, where there's more food, and it's closer to the temple and the Asian Sailing Center. 4. The reef coffee shop and the seaside post office are both located near the glass plank road, between Dongsha Beach and Central Beach. 5. The area is full of reefs, and the mountains are also rocky. The starting point for mountain hiking and trekking is in Zhaili Village. The ascent is quite steep, and it can be slippery when it rains. If there's fog, the coastline is not clear, so it's not recommended. There are two trekking routes available, and the paths are well-marked by banners from various outdoor clubs, so the routes are quite mature.

Different seasons, different times, and different weather conditions present varying scenes. This place has the fewest tourists, with its long coastline, rocky reefs, the ocean, blue sky, and the viewing pavilion. The sea breeze blows through your hair, your clothes flutter gracefully, and your scarf waves in the wind. It's a paradise for photography enthusiasts.
