[2025 Jing County Hotels] Travel Guide for Bamboo Grove Hermitage · Zen Residence (Updated Jul)

I used to think Hongcun's ink-wash painting scenery was stunning, but staying here made me realize—"The mountains gather like brows, the waters spread like eyes." Ancient poets were writing pure realism! 🌿 Open the door to a fairyland, live inside a landscape painting The guesthouse is nestled halfway up the mountain, just a 10-minute drive to Taohua Pond Scenic Area. The room features floor-to-ceiling windows like a giant movie screen, bringing the mountain views and sea of clouds directly into your sight! From the bed, you can watch bamboo forests swaying, morning mist filling the valleys, and hear the soothing white noise of the stream—truly "open the window to see the mountains, sleep by the stream." 🛏 Floor-to-ceiling windows + mountain-view bathtub, pure relaxation The room is all about "immersive scenery." Floor-to-ceiling windows: Wake up kissed by sunlight in the morning, watch the sunset dye the clouds red in the evening, and fall asleep under a starry sky at night. Mountain-view bathtub: Soak in the tub while facing the lush valley, instantly washing away fatigue. 📸 Zen-inspired design style, every photo comes with a natural high-end filter. ☕ Tea Research Club at the foot of the mountain: Sip tea, enjoy coffee, and steal a moment of leisure Just a 3-minute walk downhill is the guesthouse's own "Tea Research Club." Bamboo Forest Tea Room: Brew a pot of fragrant tea by hand, paired with Huizhou-style crispy sweets, letting the tea aroma soothe your soul. Mountain Spring Coffee Bar: With mountain spring water and breezes added, the coffee seems to have a unique flavor. Spend the afternoon on the creekside terrace, reading or daydreaming in the mountain breeze—this is the slow life summer should be about. Escape the 40°C heat this summer and hide away by Taohua Pond for a few days as a "mountain dweller" 🍃~

Tired of the city's hustle and bustle? This Dragon Boat Festival, retreat to the serene mountains and waters of Peach Blossom Pool and spend a few days as a "carefree immortal." Itinerary (2 Days, 1 Night Relaxation Plan) Day 1: Boating on Peach Blossom Pool → Zen Tea Experience at Bamboo Grove Lodge → Sunset in the Mountains ▪ Morning: Head straight to Peach Blossom Pool Scenic Area. With abundant water levels in June, bamboo rafting is a refreshing experience (don’t forget to wear traditional Hanfu! The ink-painting-like backdrop makes for stunning photos). ▪ Afternoon: Check into Bamboo Grove Lodge, just a 10-minute drive away. Open your window to a sea of bamboo. The Zen-inspired design of the lodge instantly soothes the soul. ▪ Evening: Enjoy tea at the lodge’s "Tea Research Society" while sitting in the courtyard, waiting for a pink-hued sunset. Day 2: Stroll through Chaji Ancient Town → Return Trip ▪ Early Morning: Wake up to birdsong and practice a session of Baduanjin (a traditional Chinese exercise) on the lodge’s terrace for ultimate relaxation. ▪ Morning: Drive 30 minutes to Chaji Ancient Town. With fewer visitors in June, the tranquil stone-paved streets and Ming-Qing era houses are perfect for exploring. Pick up handmade mugwort sachets as Dragon Boat Festival souvenirs. ✨ Highlights of the Lodge → Prime Location: Close to the scenic area but away from the tourist crowds, offering exclusive views of cloud seas and bamboo forests from its hillside perch. → Immersive Zen Aesthetics: From room decor to the tea house at the foot of the mountain, every detail reflects Oriental beauty. 📌 Practical Tips ✔ Book tickets for Peach Blossom Pool Scenic Area online at least 2 hours in advance for better deals. ✔ Outfit Suggestions: New Chinese-style or linen dresses.

This Dragon Boat Festival, escape into the picturesque landscapes of southern Anhui, where even the air carries the fragrance of nature.

I love the secluded Zen B&B by Taohuatan💦‼ ️ I recently found a treasure! There is an amazing homestay hidden next to Taohuatan 💦, Zhulin Jingshe 🎋 is simply a paradise on earth! 🌿Once you get here, it feels like you have walked into a paradise. It is hidden in the mountains and forests, very quiet. There is a stream at the door. Listening to the sound of running water, all worries disappear. 🛏The room is in simple Chinese style, fresh and upscale, and cleaned very well🍃. Some rooms have a hillside terrace and floor heating throughout the house. The mattresses and quilts are of high quality, and a smart toilet 🚽 is also provided. Moreover, many rooms have floor-to-ceiling windows. You can see the beautiful scenery by opening the curtains. It is so comfortable to live in! ☀ 💁‍♀️The owner of the B&B is very nice, as friendly as family, and the various services are also very considerate, including luggage storage and pick-up, and all needs are met as much as possible. 🌈There are many fun experiences here. Being able to grind tea by yourself is a blessing for tea lovers. The vegetarian restaurant is also very unique. Even if you are not a practitioner, you can go and try it. 🚗The location is also very convenient, very close to attractions such as Taohuatan and Wang Lun's Tomb, making it easy to go out and play. My dears, you must come and live here and experience this kind of fairy-like life!
