[2025 Yi County Hotels] Travel Guide for Yunyuzhu Shanju (Hongcun Branch) (Updated Oct)

||Mukeng Bamboo Sea hidden deep in Huizhou||. Mukeng Village, also known as Dicui Valley, has a valley shaped like a golden bowl, which gathers wealth without leaking out. It has very good feng shui. The village with white walls and black tiles is built along the slope and hidden halfway up the mountain. There are more than 20 households in the village, and the villagers have lived here for generations. Not disturbed by external affairs, it is better than the Peach Blossom Spring. At the entrance, there is a clear green pool, named Xiunü Lake. As the word "xiu" in its name, it is like a green jade embedded in this mountain. The temperature here remains at 21℃ all year round. It is midsummer, but there is no feeling of dryness and heat. The greenery grows wantonly in front of you, and the summer breeze in the mountains gently blows over the treetops, which is very pleasant. Mukeng Bamboo Sea is famous at home and abroad thanks to the work "Green Bamboo" created by Mr. Chen Fuli, a famous Hong Kong photographer, which won the international gold medal and was collected by the Royal Museum of the United Kingdom. The Chinese blockbuster "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" directed by Ang Lee won the Oscar. Among them, the "bamboo forest sword fight" between Chow Yun-fat and Zhang Ziyi in the movie was also filmed here. It has to be said that this is also a must-visit place here. ❀Mukeng Bamboo Sea Information ⏳Scenic spot tickets: Mukeng Bamboo Sea Ticket 40 yuan/person High-altitude zipline ticket 40 yuan/person Opening hours: 07:30-17:30 Detailed address: Huangshan City, Anhui Province, Yi County, Hongcun Town, Mukeng Village Suggested tour duration: 1.5-2 hours ❀How to get to Mukeng Village? ① Self-driving tourists: You can directly open the navigation, locate " Yixian ", and search for the name of the "Mukeng Bamboo Sea" scenic spot; ② High-speed rail tourists: You can take the high-speed rail bus in the Huangshan North Station Tourist Passenger Transport Center: High-speed Rail North Station-Xidi-Hongcun, the time is 08:05-17:30, basically every 30 minutes, get off at the destination Hongcun, take bus No. 1 or taxi to the scenic spot, the bus fare is 25/30 yuan/ ③ Tourists who have arrived in Yixian County: You can take the tourist bus in the county to Mukeng Scenic Area. ❀Where to stay in the village?

Let's end the class here. I'm going to stay in the mountains for a couple of days to rejuvenate. It's a bit chilly in the winter mountains, but calm in the depths of the bamboo forest. Blending with the wilderness, the breeze, and the birdsong. From Huangshan City, it's a 1h drive to effortlessly switch to a fairy tale in the green wilderness, owning thousands of acres of bamboo sea. The homestay, with its natural aura, seems to grow out of the bamboo forest itself. Time here slows down, long enough to experience a romantic and poetic mountain life. 🏡Homestay: Mukeng Bamboo Sea/Yunyu Bamboo·Mountain Residence 📍Location: No. 5, Mukeng Group, Xingguang Village, Hongcun Town, Yi County, Huangshan City (The homestay provides free tickets to Mukeng Bamboo Sea Scenic Area🎫) The homestay is located within the Mukeng Bamboo Sea Scenic Area. The mid-mountain homestay is surrounded by lush bamboo, with bamboo seas rolling across the hills, visible everywhere. The homestay is enveloped by the bamboo sea, and the air is truly fresh. It's also the filming location for the movie 'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon'. It's a very pet-friendly homestay. A tentative inquiry received an unexpectedly warm welcome. It feels like there's no need to think about anything here, just relax. The spacious public area has places perfect for zoning out without leaving the homestay. The lobby has large bookshelves for reading, and the private card room is secluded and quiet. The open tea room on the second floor allows you to enjoy tea while admiring the beautiful scenery, which is refreshing and peaceful. My favorite is brewing tea around the stove in the small garden, watching the tea boil over the fire, smelling the fragrance, feeling incredibly comfortable and relaxed. Chatting with close friends, letting time pass slowly with the crackling of the charcoal fire. Sheep graze leisurely in the small garden, their figures extra soft in the sunlight. Meanwhile, I sip tea and read, enjoying this secluded tranquility. This time, I stayed in the 180°C Bamboo Sea Terrace Deluxe Suite on the third floor. The room is equipped with underfloor heating, and the housekeeper will turn it on in advance, which is super heartwarming☺️. Once we entered the room, we didn't want to leave. The room is spacious, with floor-to-ceiling windows and a large terrace, offering an unobstructed view. The room is fully equipped, so there's no need to worry about the hardware. Marshall speakers, a large bathtub🛁, and the full view of green is too comfortable. The homestay has a swimming pool and is very quiet at night. The natural white noise helps you fall asleep peacefully. It's quite suitable for summer retreats, spring and autumn hiking, and winter snow viewing. The meals at Yunyu Bamboo will not disappoint you. A meal for two with four dishes and one soup, each dish is delicious, very authentic Hui cuisine. Highly recommend the hairy tofu and Hui-style stir-fried pork, which really can make you eat two bowls of rice. The flavors are original and fresh, not losing to any must-try restaurants outside. I wonder where they found such great chefs (remember to make a reservation with the housekeeper in advance). The breakfast is also very rich and satisfying. If you wake up early the next day to see the sunrise and the cooking smoke, it's another serene experience. Breathing in the first rays of sunlight and air from nature is a healing gift. Reluctantly leaving, but still have to return to the noisy city. However, with such weekends, workdays are also full of anticipation. See you next time~

Huangshan B&B/Healed by nature in the deep mountains at Yunyu Bamboo Mountain Residence The B&B is located in the Mukeng Scenic Area of Yi County, Huangshan We stayed in a 270-degree mountain view room, through the window you can see the lush bamboo forest outside, beautiful and healing Includes breakfast, afternoon tea, and the option to brew tea or cook red wine by the stove. If you want to take photos, you can do it in the room, there is a very large terrace~ Got up early at six in the morning to see the morning mist of Huangshan and the curling smoke from the village stoves. It took about three and a half hours to drive from Hefei, the B&B is on the mountain, and driving on mountain roads is quite nerve-wracking But if you take the high-speed train, the housekeeper will pick you up at the train station A ten-minute drive from Hongcun, stayed in Hongcun the next day, ate local dishes and drank rice wine. Suggest a weekend trip, the timing is just right, left when it started to snow, the snow-covered southern Anhui is really extra beautiful
