3h from Shanghai to Hangzhou|Soak in a Cliffside Bathtub with Pioneer Bookstore!

Nestled in an 800-meter-high ancient cliff village, this retreat is embraced by green mountains and faces terraced valleys, shrouded in mist year-round like a fairyland. Certified by National Geographic as "Jiangnan's Last Hidden Gem," the homestay neighbors the iconic Pioneer Bookstore. Wake up to rolling clouds and fall asleep under a starry sky. A 40-minute taxi ride from Songyang Station (accessible by car or high-speed rail) rewards you with breathtaking mountain views en route. ▪️ Fei Niao Ji (Songyang) ▪️ STRAY BIRDS SONGYANG ▪️ No. 37, Chenjiapu Village, Sidu Township, Songyang County, Lishui 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻 Transformed from 600-year-old rammed-earth houses, the homestay blends traditional walls and wooden beams with modern aesthetics. Rough stone surfaces meet concrete textures, while wooden lattices intertwine with glass facades—preserving the village’s rustic charm while adding contemporary flair. Its 15 rooms across two phases cling to the mountainside, ensuring "every seat is a front-row view." 𝗥𝗼𝗼𝗺𝘀 Phase I offers four spacious rammed-earth rooms; Phase II adds 11 suites with valley terraces and lofts. Each room prioritizes vistas—whether from the bathtub, tatami, or floor-to-ceiling windows, the terraced valleys and sea of clouds dominate the view. Starting at 60-70㎡, rooms feature smart systems, AC, underfloor heating, air purifiers, B&O speakers, high-thread-count linens, and plant-based bath amenities. 𝗗𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 Cloud-top breakfast: Bamboo baskets deliver purple yam, rice cakes, red bean porridge, and seasonal fruits to your room—plated like art against the cloudscape. "Mountain Harvest" restaurant serves local specialties: winter bamboo shoots with pickled cabbage, stream fish, free-range chicken… Ingredients sourced from village gardens encapsulate Songyang’s terroir. 𝗔𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀 Sync with nature’s rhythm—hike ancient trails through bamboo forests and terraces, discover century-old trees and crystal streams. A 5-minute walk leads to "Pioneer Bookstore Chenjiapu Branch" for cliffside reading or "Niao Café" for valley-view coffee. Seasonal activities: tea-picking (spring), stargazing (summer), chestnut-foraging (fall), fireside gatherings (winter), plus workshops and outdoor movies for immersive cultural exchanges.
