Where to go for the weekend around Guangdong, this time we came to Yewu Valley in Yingde. This homestay is located on a small island in the flow of the Beijiang River, with mountains and water, where you can fish, take a boat to tour the river, and play kayaking in summer. When entering the yard, I was delighted by the arrangement of the green plants, stone paths, and other courtyards here. The flowers and plants are well taken care of, and there are swings and tea-making around the stove. Basking in the sun, making tea around the stove in such a comfortable yard is so atmospheric! Roast sweet potatoes, make milk tea, and you can watch fireworks at night. The homestay has a lot of delicious food, The main meal recommends steamed chicken with five-finger hairy peach, black bean fish, and stir-fried meat with bamboo shoots. The ingredients are fresh and the taste is good. You can eat two bowls of rice🍚 The breakfast choices are not many but also delicious, one serving per person, and you can add one serving after eating. It is recommended to book the main meal in advance, Order with the front desk and set a good time, Go on time to have a seat.✨

Who understands! I can stay in the tatami room with a big window all day The log style + large window view is beyond the picture! Drink tea, read and meditate in the mountains Navigation: Yesugu B&B When sitting on the floor, the Zen feeling is strong Sit on the couch, sip a cup of tea and read a few pages of books Look at the distant mountains, see the lake, and embrace the comfort of the mountains The entire series of rooms are located on the second floor of the Ye Du Gu B&B courtyard and follow the triangular design of the tiled roof. Use wood elements to create a warm space, add tatami elements, and add a Zen-like panoramic floor-to-ceiling window design to give you a panoramic view of the mountain world~ Room building joins the creator (small clever idea of ​​using red cedar wood to make the pitched roof Red cedar wood always has a light woody fragrance. Compared with other woods, termites and borers do not like it. The Yunman·Couch series are named [Yunman·Singing in the Evening], [Yunman·Light Boat] and [Yunman·Fisherman Fire] respectively. From the window sill, you can see the lush greenery and the looming river, and occasionally a fishing boat will stop slowly.

I have collected it for a long time, I am very much looking forward to it, I am very satisfied and I can’t help but linger on it. This is my psychological journey this time. I haven't seen such green pine rice fields, withered lotus ponds, gurgling streams, swings under litchi trees, lazy cats under the flower beds, and playful puppies by the river for many years. I really like this feeling, it’s quiet yet full of life. At night, my ears are filled with the sounds of crickets, insects and birds, as well as the freshness after the rain. I can really stay there for several days to cleanse my restless and noisy mind. The public swimming pool has a great view of the river, and the suite has its own small hot spring pool overlooking the rice fields. It is worth mentioning that the service is warm and considerate, and the food in the B&B restaurant is really great (Figure 9). There is also a self-service afternoon tea with refreshments. The breakfast is well matched. Suitable for family, elderly, children and couples traveling. There are many seasonal activities, and you can also bring your pets.
