[2025 Huailai Stay] Travel Guide for Tsingpu Badaling Retreat (Updated May)

@Today, I checked in at Tsingpu Culture Hotel Ruiyun with my best friend. This winery, built in 1998, combines the characteristics of ancient European architecture, allowing us to easily experience the artistic leisure of Tuscany. This boutique hotel also retains the winemaking process, and you can visit the wine cellar. The self-brewed wine produced here also brings a different taste experience and Italian romance to the delicious food of this trip. Accommodation There are only 15 guest rooms in the entire manor, including regular room types, one-bedroom and two-living room suites, and family suites. They are spacious and comfortable enough. This time, we stayed in a duplex with a small courtyard. The room was spacious, comfortable, bright, and distinctive. There was also a tatami mat in the room. If you are a family with children, the children will definitely love it. We used it to do yoga, bask in the sun in the small courtyard, drink tea, watch the sunset, and talk about our childhood, laughing happily. Dining We booked lunch and dinner in advance and told the butler our meal time every day. We went directly to the restaurant at the appointed time, and the chef prepared nutritious meals according to our taste. There are Chinese and Western options. We stayed for two days. Lunch was Chinese (M5 Australian beef belly, mustard cheese shrimp balls, pigeon soup, rib soup), and dinner was Western (steak, lamb chops, pasta, salad, small cakes, cream mushroom soup), which satisfied our taste buds. Every meal was different. The butler also specially set up the table for dinner. Under the candlelight, we enjoyed the food and drank the winery's self-brewed Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon, slowing down our life. Entertainment Artistic activities have always been a major feature of Tsingpu. In busy social activities, people are busy running around for a more abundant material life, but now people are more aware of spiritual satisfaction. You might as well come here to experience artistic activities. The teacher is very professional. You can not only get your own handicrafts but also learn about culture and enrich your mind. There are many activities. This time, we chose wet plate photography and Beijing Rabbit. After making handicrafts, we went to the hotel's vineyard to watch the sunset. There is a terrace and meeting space here. In autumn, you can have a barbecue outdoors, make tea around the stove, hold weddings, and have small meetings.

Qingpu Cultural Hotel (Huailai Badaling Ruiyun Store) is located in Dongyulin Village, Donghuayuan Town, Huailai County, Zhangjiakou City. It is based on the architectural style of Tuscany, Italy, and uses natural materials such as stone, wood, and plaster to express the texture of the building, allowing the building to organically integrate with the natural environment. This style gives the hotel a kind of rural tranquility and elegance, making people feel like they are in a beautiful manor in southern Italy. Red stone wall and arched door design The exterior walls of the hotel are made of red stone as the main material. These red stones are all sourced from the winery’s grape plantations, giving the building a simple and heavy texture. At the same time, the design of arched doors is also one of the important elements of the Tuscan style. They can be seen everywhere in the hotel, adding a romantic and classical atmosphere to the building. Qingpu Cultural Hotel (Huailai Badaling Ruiyun Branch) is a converted winery. What attracts me most is the scenery and architecture. Just take a photo and you will see the beautiful scenery. It is so beautiful that it makes people feel calm and I am drunk without realizing it!

Experience a day at a winery in the suburbs of Beijing| The second Qingpu we checked in with teammates is located near Beijing (Huailai, Hebei), about a two-hour drive from the city area. It must be said that each Qingpu is very different, each with very distinct local characteristics, but what remains unchanged is the excellent service. The predecessor of this Qingpu was Ruiyun Winery, with over 700 acres of vineyards, experiencing the cycle of spring growth, summer maturation, autumn harvest, and winter storage, creating a very pastoral and poetic atmosphere. Such a large place has only 15 guest rooms, which are very private and quiet. We booked a one-bedroom suite with a whopping 100 square meters, which also comes with a small courtyard, perfect for sunbathing. A welcome fruit basket is included with the stay. Due to being a winery, the decor has a very European flair. Here you can fully understand wine culture, including wine tasting, visiting the cellars, and so on. Other complimentary recreational activities include making clay rabbit figurines, wet plate photography, and metalworking jewelry. You can call the hotel in advance to confirm the specific schedule after booking. For dinner, you can choose between Chinese and Western cuisine. We chose Western, and the steak was surprisingly delicious!! It's a bit cold in early spring, and the courtyard feels a bit bleak, so May to September seems like a better season. Weddings can also be held here, but when we asked about availability for the second half of 2023 for 2024, May to September were already fully booked. A very special day at the winery, adding a little bit more to the experience of life! Looking forward to checking in at the next Qingpu with my teammates~~
