Homestay Design| Shu Ji Mountain House
In Yunnan's Ailao Mountain, the boundary mountain of the ancient Ailao country, the forests are dyed in layers, and the trees are lush
In the midst of the overlapping greens in the hinterland of the Hengduan Mountains
Six hundred-year-old trees stand tall, and the story of 'Shu Ji' begins here
The project is both bounded by ancient trees and based on ancient trees to create the most harmonious architectural form based on humanistic and physical spatial logic
In terms of materials, modern techniques and building materials are used in a restrained manner to pursue the preservation of the original appearance
Let contemporary architecture and nearly a hundred years of stone, earth base, old wood reflect each other
It is both a dialogue between new and old and a marriage between ancient and modern
The first floor's check-in front desk and sunshine breakfast restaurant, souvenir area, open shared kitchen, sunken study are organically combined in the same space. The dialogue between the stone wall and the original wood
Brings the rough touch of natural texture using rich color layers
Add a warm texture to the space, an impromptu multi-play of scenery The waterway leading to the guest room area is narrow and long, stepping lightly on the bluestone slab
It's like entering a quiet time tunnel The glass skylight of the old wood steel structure inside the space pours in natural light
So that wherever the eye goes, it is all metaphor
The earth base wall extends to the three-story roof frame with a quiet and pure expression The steel and wood roof frame projects a wonderful light and shadow scroll on the wall more than ten meters high
On the other hand, it starts the play of light on the old house's wooden flower pieces The simple local culture and unique design aesthetics fill every corner of the interior
The fusion of ethnic objects and modern decorations deeply moves people

Witness a sea of clouds sunrise at Ailao Mountain in Xinping
Experience a sea of clouds sunrise at Ailao Mountain in Xinping this winter (Guide)
In Yunnan, winter is the best season to watch the sea of clouds and sunrise. From November to March of the following year is the prime time to appreciate the sea of clouds at Ailao Mountain in Xinping County, Yuxi, Yunnan. Many tourists flock there to experience the magical spectacle of nature in the winter.
The sunrise is an absolutely unmissable viewing time at Ailao Mountain. The magic of the Ailao sea of clouds is that it doesn't dissipate quickly; it can last the entire morning or even until noon, allowing the sun to color it at will, changing into different hues at different times, delighting the heart and refreshing the mind.
❤️For those who want to see the sunrise and sea of clouds, be sure to read the entire guide:
💛Tips:
💟【Accommodation】
👉To watch the sea of clouds, you can choose to stay in Jiasa Town, Xinping County. The average annual temperature in Jiasa is between 17-23 degrees Celsius, which is quite warm in winter, and it's also convenient for dining.
✔️Recommended in Jiasa Town:
📍Yuxi City·Xinping Jiasa Bund Haosheng Hotel
The hotel is moderately priced, not expensive, with decent facilities and environment. The only downside is that you have to get up early and drive up the mountain to see the sunrise.
👉You can also choose to stay in a homestay on Ailao Mountain. The homestay is just a 10-minute walk from the sunrise viewing platform, so you don't need to get up too early.
✔️Recommended on the mountain:
📍Yuxi City·Shuji Mountain Lodge
This place is considered the price ceiling among the homestays on Ailao Mountain. It's a designer hotel, but the downside is that it's quite expensive, costing over a thousand yuan per night in winter. You have to order meals from the homestay and pay separately. Other than the convenience for watching the sunrise, everything else is inconvenient.
💟【Sunrise Watching Guide】
Check the sunrise time; recently it's around 7:50 am. Leave at 7:00 am and drive directly to the sea of clouds sunrise viewing platform. People will signal you to park along the way, and parking costs 10💰. Actually, there is a parking lot at the platform, and you can drive further in.
Choose a good spot to watch the sunrise and sea of clouds. The lower positions at the sunrise viewing platform charge an extra fee. There are breakfast stalls around the parking lot, and if you haven't had breakfast, you can grab a bowl of rice noodles.

The mountain does not see me, I go to see the mountain
It's hard not to love the mountains if you stay in the city for a long time
Drive 270km from Kunming to reach the Yuxi section of the Ailao Mountain Range
(Must, must, must take the national road)
Arrive at Gasai Town, Xinping County in the afternoon, after a pot of soup
Choose to go directly to the homestay on Ailao Mountain to wait for the sunset
There are many farmhouses on Ailao Mountain, but Shu Ji Mountain House is quite romantic
The tatami guest room on the third floor can see the distant mountain range layer

Yunnan's most beautiful mid-mountain hotel
"Yunnan Travel"
Beautiful hotel
Travel likes to hide in the mountains to see the mountains, clouds, and trees. The mysterious Ailao Mountain
The "Shu Ji Mountain House" hidden in it
Is a work of ingenuity worth driving to feel
◎Shu Ji Mountain House Resort Hotel
(No. 3 Zhujiacun, Yaonan Village, Jiasa Town, Xinping County, Yuxi City)
As soon as you enter the door
The big green walnut tree comes into view and instantly heals the fatigue and heat of the journey. Seeing such a beautiful tree
Always can't help but want to run and dance under the tree......
One wall of the hotel still retains the details of the old house's adobe bricks. The layout uses many items used by local villagers. It is a more aesthetic Chinese-style design. The entire yard is full of small flowers of various colors. It is full of vitality.
I like the color matching and light and shadow of the entire hotel. The light unintentionally sprinkled from the roof adds icing to the cake.
【Travel Suggestions]
Two days and one night: day1 check in at the hotel at 12 noon→Rest and rest→Go to Shimenxia in the afternoon→Return to the hotel for dinner in the evening. Day2 get up early to watch the sea of clouds on the viewing platform→Have breakfast at the hotel and go to Jinshan Forest Park→Return.
(The itinerary is relatively compact, a bit rushed, suitable for a two-day weekend) Three days and two nights: day1 check in at the hotel, daze at the hotel. Day2 Jinshan Forest Park in the morning, Shimenxia in the afternoon. Day3 get up early in the morning to watch the sea of clouds on the viewing platform, and return after lunch.
Families with children are recommended for 3 days and 2 nights, the itinerary is relatively loose, and it will not be too tired. If you take your children out to play, you must prepare fun things, which will make the journey more meaningful. This time I brought a small camera and a hand box from Baisi Childhood. When going out, mom uses a big camera, baby uses a small camera, and records the beauty together. The hand box is mainly used to pass the time in the hotel, and the independent packaging is particularly convenient!
PS
Be sure to choose above the third floor, the scenery is more beautiful
The view from the bathtub of the 12th house on the third floor is too beautiful, right? There was still a misty cloud when I just arrived, and I felt like I was living in a fairyland. There are Western and Chinese breakfasts, you need to confirm when you check in, I recommend Chinese food, it is local beef soup pot rice noodles.
Nearby attractions include: Jinshan Primitive Forest, Tea Horse Ancient Road, Shimenxia and other small attractions, viewing platforms to watch the sea of clouds, etc., mainly natural landscapes, not far from the hotel

Mopanshan (Mopan Mountain) National Forest Park Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
Moon Lake is like its name. The curved lake is like a bright moon. So everyone calls it Moon Lake. On the way to Moon Lake, there is a road full of cherry blossoms. The cherry blossoms in the mountains reflect the road. Color, like a shuttle in the sea of flowers.
When I arrived at Moon Lake, I happened to meet a group of uncles and aunts who were singing and dancing at the lake. The unique musical instruments, melodious melody, unique national costumes, and the joyful atmosphere drove the tourists and friends to dance with them.
After a long day of play, I ate a bowl of rice noodles at the specialty snack bar next to Moon Lake. The rice noodles have been eaten many times, but this kind of authentic rice noodles made with rice grind is strong, and the halogen is used. The local specialties are made with secret sauces, which are beautiful, delicious and delicious.
Shanhai.
Looking at the cherry blossoms in Yunnan, Yunnan, see the cherry blossoms in the Xinping Mopanshan National Forest Park, where there is a cherry blossom avenue full of cherry blossoms, lingering in the pink ocean. There is also a moon lake that bends on the lake. The afternoon sun shines on the water and sparkles. The brothers and sisters of the Yi people sang and danced by the lake. Air rich in negative oxygen ions, large area of forest vegetation, passionate Yi people.
In order to catch up with the noon sunshine, I rushed to the Mopanshan Forest Park from the county town in the morning (about 70 yuan by taxi). When you come to Mopanshan Forest Park, you will first pass through a cherry blossom avenue. This is followed by a parking lot filled with cherry blossoms. This is the most beautiful parking lot I have ever seen. On the left side of the parking lot is another cherry blossom avenue and a rape blossom sea.
Shanhai.
For two days, I stayed in the Mopan Mountain Scenic Area. There are many kinds of accommodation here, there are inns, camping, and RV. We chose Leshanyuan Inn, the inn is hidden behind a bamboo forest. If you want to go to the inn, you need to go through a bamboo forest path first. There is a kind of winding path.
In front of the inn is a small square where you can get up early in the morning. The roof of the inn is covered by transparent glass. When you look up, you can see the blue sky. We drink tea and chat in the sun-filled atrium. In an instant, there is an illusion that we can't distinguish between indoor and outdoor.
In addition to the inn, the most exciting thing to try is to set up a tent. In the morning, go to the inn to have breakfast. On the road, you can see the lawns on both sides of the road filled with tents of various colors and forms. I want to live in the tent. The first thing that wakes you up is the bird song from the tree, the shimmer through the cracks in the tent, and the fragrance of the dirt and grass.
Shanhai.
The Mopanshan Forest Park is very large. In order to see more of its style, we came to the commanding height of the entire park, the Holy Fire. The Holy Fire Tower made of natural stone is more like a European castle. Everyone can't wait to come to the top of the flame table. The wind at the top is very big, but the scenery is infinitely good. There is a beautiful view of the mountains.
Mopan Mountain is not only a scenic mountain, but also a place where the heroes of the Yi nationality heroes lived in Hebai, and also the source of fire for the local Yi people's torch festival. Since ancient times, they have been worshipped by local Yi people and are the Yi people. Seeking for money, praying for the spiritual mountain. Various major festivals of the local Yi people are held in Mopan Mountain. At present, the festival activities that have been formed in Mopan Mountain include: Flower Festival Thousand Table Million Milling Banquet held on March 8th each year. The 16th Yi People's Song Festival in the first month of the month is also the largest and most grand festival in Xinping. The 10,000-mu cherry blossom viewing festival held in Mopanshan National Forest Park every year from February to March.

✨Shimen Gorge is located in Jiasa Town, Xinping County, Yuxi City, hidden in the middle of the eastern slope of Ailao Mountain, named 'Shimen Gorge' because there are five natural stone gates in the gorge.
💦A stream runs through the entire gorge, clear and cool all year round, with the significant characteristics of 'four seasons in one mountain, different skies within miles' of the high-altitude climate. The outside of the gorge is warm and humid, while the inside is cold.
🌲The original forests and mountain streams make here and the sultry Jiasa Town like two seasons.
🌊Enter along the stream and return the same way, a total of 4km, with many mountain roads, cliffs, original forests, waterfall pools and streams naturally combined, the stream is clear to the bottom.

💡Super Guide💡
1⃣️It is strongly recommended to go in summer for a walk, you can go to the end to play in the water, the water is clear and cool, the children's favorite, not in winter.
2️⃣Some treasures may say that you can see the sea of clouds in winter, those who have not seen it can also go in winter, but I have seen the sea of clouds on the golden top of Emei Mountain (on the homepage, you can flip through if you need a guide), I have a feeling that except for Wushan is not a cloud, I still think it is better to go in summer.
3️⃣The whole journey is a mountain road with water, be sure to wear non-slip and comfortable shoes. It takes about 3 hours to return the same way to the end, but actually the scenery in the second half is average, if you don't take the children to the end to play in the water, you can turn back when you reach 'Peak Water Show'.
4️⃣There are no vendors or shops along the way, be sure to bring food and drink. There are also few toilets along the way, you can solve personal problems when you see a toilet.
5️⃣On the way from Jiasa Town to Shimen Gorge, you will pass Nannen Waterfall, you can get off the car to check in. The whole process takes about 5 hours if you are not in a hurry to play, it is recommended to stay in Jiasa Town, and then set off in the morning, there is no need to stay on Ailao Mountain.
6️⃣There is a big temperature difference between the top and bottom of the mountain, you can bring a jacket for backup.
7️⃣It is recommended to spray mosquito repellent before going up the mountain.
8️⃣I have written about the food, accommodation and play in Xinping Jiasa, you can flip through the homepage if you need it.

Surrounding Kunming~ Stay in the most beautiful homestay in Ailao Mountain - Shu Ji Mountain House!
Homestay: Shu Ji Mountain House
Shu Ji is located in the belly of Ailao Mountain, with an altitude of 1900 meters, surrounded by mountains and forests, with a quiet environment and a high concentration of negative oxygen ions, which is very suitable for 'oxygen intoxication'
The homestay is based on the original site, as much as possible using natural materials, making the color tone integrate with the surrounding environment. Inside the homestay, there are various decorations of the Huayao Dai, full of design sense, and there are also sweet mountain spring water with five-layer filtration and handmade yogurt prepared in advance in the room.
The homestay customer service sister kindly contacted us one day in advance to inform us of the traffic route, climate, and precautions during the stay. There is also a seemingly fat but actually strong cute pet Corgi 'Chou Chou' in the store, who is very well-behaved and will send guests away with the owner every day!
Note: There are also attractions such as Toast Mansion, Primitive Forest, and Chu Orange Manor nearby. Because we want to relax a little bit, we didn't go. The attractions are not far away, and everyone can go and play if they have enough time
