Compared to Dali, my kids love this 25°C summer retreat in Guizhou even more!
Who doesn't know how stunning Guizhou is in summer? With average temperatures of 24-26°C, it's perfect for family outings~
It's like stepping into the scenes from Jay Chou's "Rice Fragrance" MV 🌾
Sitting quietly by the rice fields, letting go of all worries – pure bliss
Chilled sweet watermelon🍉 and the crisp chorus of frogs🐸
Instantly lifts your mood
Check out the infinity pool and countryside afternoon tea by the rice fields at Huasheng Villa in Wanfenglin
Stay at a cliffside waterfall hotel, listening to gentle breezes and insect chirps under the stars💫
Ride a mountain train🚂, go fish catching and mud playing, or hop on a mini motorcycle
Explore caves in costumes, try Miao ethnic dress-up, go canyon rafting, or ride sidecar bikes with your kids
Experiencing joys so different from city life~
