The Beijing Pinggu Lishugou Youke Mountain House Homestay That Made Me Fall in Love Instantly

🌿A suburban peach blossom land, rustic charm, and healing slow life—this summer I finally stayed at the much-anticipated Youke Mountain House! The entire farmhouse courtyard is surrounded by greenery, with mountains visible through the windows, as if stepping into the idyllic world described by Tao Yuanming, and even the air carries the sweet fragrance of chestnut flowers～ - 🏡: Beijing Youke Mountain House Homestay 📍: No.16, Lishugou Village, Huangsongyu Township, Pinggu District, Beijing 🚗 Transportation: 1.5 hours drive from the city center, free parking provided by the homestay, precise navigation, and smooth mountain roads! - 🔍 Location Youke Mountain House is hidden deep in the Lishugou valley, a 10-minute walk to Lishugou Leisure Valley (2500m mountain coaster, flower sea terraced fields), a 10-minute drive to Shilinxia (UFO glass stargazing platform), and 30 minutes to Jinhai Lake. Spend the day at the homestay playing with cats and dogs, visit the nearby "Northern Zhangjiajie" Tianyun Mountain in the evening, and stay overnight listening to the insects—perfect to avoid the crowds! - 🍃 Environment The homestay has 20 guest rooms, each with a mountain surprise!
