Experience the village homestay in the landscape painting, and pursue that beam of freedom's light

Spring outing, step into the mountains and find a secluded spot in the ancient village of Songyang to taste a fresh new life. 'Shan Ye Yun Ye' homestay is located at the top of Chenjiapu village on a cliff over 800m above sea level, with a history of over 600 years. To this day, the villagers' necessities for living still need to be manually carried up the mountain, and the well-preserved local culture adds to its charm. Two of the homestay's managers are post-90s guys, who invited a renowned architect, Mr. Da Jiang, to carefully create the place, taking over two years to complete the project. To transport the renovation materials, a transport track was specially installed along the stone steps from the back mountain. The difficulties encountered could fill an entire notebook, but it was all worth it. 'Shan Ye Yun Ye' is derived from Su Shi's poem in 'The Scroll of Smoke River and Layered Peaks' collected by Wang Dingguo, which reads 'Is it a mountain or a cloud, so far away it's indistinct; when the smoke clears and the clouds disperse, the mountain remains the same.' Every visitor to Chenjiapu village looks forward to seeing the fairy-like sea of clouds, and this is the best viewpoint. To preserve the village's traces of time, the homestay adopts a rustic style that is as good as old, colliding with the aesthetic elements of the new era, creating a minimalist beauty and cultural depth that speaks to a return to simplicity. The independent entertainment building has two floors; the first floor offers experiences like billiards, board games, and video games... The second floor is a meeting room and tea art room. The panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows in the restaurant offer an unobstructed view of the distant scenery, enhancing the spatial aesthetics with the interplay of light and shadow. Besides, the 'Yun Gan Luo' is a favorite among the literati! Satisfying day coffee and night drinks, tunes at will, and a small drink at nightfall, singing a song, this is a utopia for releasing the inner self. There are 7 guest rooms, including flat, Loft, and canyon terrace view rooms. Each room has a different viewing perspective and is equipped with central air conditioning, whole-house floor heating, Marshall smart speakers, and a mini fridge. Guests will enjoy welcome fruits, good night sweet soup, and a mini bar. After a tiring journey, a hot bath is a delightful thing, and the water used in the rooms is taken from the mountain spring water behind the mountain, which is safer after filtration!
