Tired of going to Moganshan and Tonglu, Xiaojin went out last week and dug up a small holiday town with almost no raiders on the whole network, and it can be reached directly for 1 hours.

There are bamboo seas that don't lose Anji, rice fields that don't lose Dali, and tea gardens that don't lose Hangzhou, which have the characteristics of the three places. Only this small town.

It is still a hidden food paradise, with almost 1 tourists, and there is no detailed strategy for eating, living and playing on the Internet. It is precisely because of this that it has not been destroyed by commerce and remains primitive and simple.

The high-speed train is 45 minutes, and it takes only about 2 or 3 hours for Hangzhou and Shanghai to drive by car. This holiday town that has been neglected is Yixing, Jiangsu.

There is also a homestay hidden here, which was once kept by regular customers for publicity. The service and quality are not lost in the stars, but the price is more than half cheaper-Dongshe.

In 2121, when the "camping style" prevailed, wild luxury was introduced into the homestay, and camping was possible without going far in the back garden, which surprised all the editorial departments.

It is obviously operated by a team of well-known large-scale design companies, surrounded by the territory of Shan Ye, and the surrounding food is blooming everywhere, but it is extremely low-key and hidden in the city.

there is no need to travel far to move Shan Ye into the city.

This is the natural campsite.

Yixing is the last secret place in the south of the Yangtze River.

Paddy field near Dongshe

It belongs to a small county town in Wuxi, Jiangsu Province, close to Taihu Lake, with mountains and water, and the original ecological beauty that is not destroyed by commercial atmosphere.

When Moganshan is crowded with tourists, it is still a peaceful place for local residents to master the rhythm of life.

Dongshe's yard

Dongshe's location is even more magical. The manager's eyes are diabolically chosen in Zhangyang Village, the father of Taihu Lake, which is regarded as the heart of Yixing.

Dongshe Garden

And Zhangyang Village is a famous bonsai village in China. Almost every household here has its own unique small garden, and it was infected by the original and leisurely life atmosphere from the beginning of entering the village.

in the local people's words, "this is a sea of bamboo, an oasis of tea, living in the surrounding of bamboo forests and tea gardens."

When you get off the high-speed train, you can get to Dongshe in 1.5 minutes by taxi.

Being neighbors and friends with local residents, a whole white house, floor-to-ceiling windows glowing with warm light, a yard full of flowers and plants, and a glass greenhouse full of sunshine, the Dongshe that comes into view is as attractive as a fairy tale hut.

It is Dongshe's unique skill to move Shan Ye life directly into the homestay.

In this year when "camping style" prevailed, we stayed in the homestay and enjoyed a luxurious camping.

In the courtyard of Nuoda University, there are camping tents and outdoor tables and chairs, on the other side are carefully selected desserts and drinks, and there is music in the corner with a stereo.

We had a great time drinking a little wine and chatting with people, hosts and managers.

In the end, even the grandma neighbors joined our camp, holding beer in one hand, which is probably the attitude of Yixing people, cool and comfortable.

A well-known design team

It's not only a homestay, but also an "art exhibition hall"

/Medieval furniture from Europe/

Although it's a homestay, its quality is no less than that of a star-rated hotel.

To put it bluntly, the interior design is handled by a team of well-known design companies, who have designed luxury hotels and landmark buildings.

To put it mildly, everything in the B&B is well-known. For example, most of the furniture in the lobby is found in France, Britain, Italy and other countries, and you may not be able to buy it if you have money, just like the "Medieval Furniture Exhibition Hall".

The owner-manager is a complete medieval furniture controller, who previously opened a medieval furniture studio in Beijing.

How good is it?

The name "Dongshe" also comes from a medieval furniture brand in Beijing. It injects art and feelings into Shan Ye to create a quality home for every incoming guest. This is the initial intention of the manager.

/Flowers picked from the forest /

When Xiaojinjun checked in, he was also amazed by the flowers placed in different corners of the hotel. I deliberately went to consult which floral team's work this is. I didn't expect that all the seasonal flowers were picked by the housekeeper from the nearby mountains.

according to local conditions, since I am hiding in a well-known bonsai village in China, I will push the boat to introduce the beauty of nature into the room, and the exceptionally vibrant wildflowers will make the whole space look vivid.

/Zisha Tea Room &; Handmade space/

Different from commercial homestays, the first floor of Dongshe is also equipped with a purple tea room, which is also a handmade space.

Yixing is a well-known "Zisha Town" in China. The manager will combine local culture, craftsmanship and homestay, and specially invite Master Wan (a young ceramist, an artist of Zisha Art Museum, and his father is Mr. Wan Genfa, a "national arts and crafts artist") to exchange crafts with you. It is very difficult to get out of the mountain on weekdays.

Master Wan's production site

You can not only watch Master Wan make pots here, but also personally participate in the experience production. Xiaojinjun personally tried to participate in the production of teapot, which was very difficult but particularly interesting.

There are only six rooms

Each room is like a painting

In order to leave enough room, Dongshe only has six rooms.

They are scattered in two floors, and each room has enough privacy and personal space.

The guest room area is 35 square meters, and the largest room type is 54 square meters, which is really unusual in homestays.

in every room, the designer introduces the scenery into the room, which echoes and talks with the surrounding mountains and trees to the greatest extent, and is quiet and comfortable.

and each room is equipped with a tea table big enough, so you can enjoy a quiet and leisurely holiday even if you don't go out and stay in your room and enjoy the beautiful scenery outside the oversized French window while drinking tea.

In details, Dongshe is also remarkable.

Spare parts are a small direction to test the quality. The toiletries in the guest room are made of Langfan, a niche brand. Organic black tea from one's own tea mountain is placed on the tea table in the room, and the aromatherapy essential oil placed on the bedside is also specially adjusted by the host, so that you can sleep comfortably.

It's worth a special trip to eat.

1 It's commercial, original and fresh in Shan Ye.

It's delicious in Nanjing, Suzhou and Wuxi, and everyone knows it. But Yixing is delicious, and few people really know it.

Breakfast made according to the season

Yixing people near Taihu Lake are not tired of eating fine food. Not only does it perfectly inherit the "freshness and sweetness" of Jiangsu cuisine, but it also brings "Shan Ye" to the extreme. The biggest feature of the whole city is "farm food", which makes people fall in love once they eat it.

Afternoon tea made according to the season

Breakfast and afternoon tea are all made with Yixing seasonal ingredients, so you can taste Yixing characteristics without leaving home.

The dinner given by the 811 Hotel

We arranged to eat at the nearby characteristic farmhouse restaurant, which only takes 3 minutes to walk.

Dinner is usually three dishes and one soup, which is also made according to seasonal ingredients. The bamboo shoots or fresh chickens in season are much more delicious than the restaurants in the city.

Dongtian Fudi Farmhouse

If there is still time, the surrounding hotels should not be missed. This public comment can't be found, and every dish in the private restaurant found by the people's host management talents is delicious to tears.

There is no menu in the store, so the reservation system is adopted in advance, and the boss will tailor the meal for you according to the seasonal ingredients. Don't be an individual, just a box. I suggest that you must come to the group building or family gathering to try it!

Chicken soup and braised pork in the store are especially recommended. The local free-range farm chickens are boiled for several hours, and there is no monosodium glutamate, so they are naturally fresh and sweet. Braised pork melts in your mouth, it's not greasy at all, and it's invincible when you eat. In retrospect, it makes your mouth water.

tips: you can ask the housekeeper to make an appointment for Zhou Zhen wonton.

When you come to Hufu Town, Yixing, you must eat a bowl of famous Hufu wonton.

Zhou Zhen's wonton has a very high reputation in the local area. You can see the long local team at the front of the store before the meal. The bottom of the wonton soup boiled in broth is very delicious, and the thin wonton skin is wrapped in tender meat, and one bite is just enough. If you like spicy food, you can also add a spoonful of fresh spicy powder, which is the authentic local taste.

Surrounded by the scenery

You can meet surprises when you walk casually

/Tea fields in the mountains/

After eating and drinking enough, you can walk around with the host, and you will meet surprises casually.

There are no tourists, just natural scenery between Shan Ye. Picking leaves and wild flowers in the forest, you can tie a bouquet of autumn flowers at your fingertips, which is hundreds of times more beautiful than all the scenic spots in online celebrity.

/Hengshan Reservoir/

Little Red Book @ Hehe Travel Notes

In New Zealand, there is a wonderful scene called "Lonely Tree", where a dead tree stands in the middle of the lake with extraordinary artistic conception.

I didn't expect that Yixing-Hengshan Reservoir also has the same beautiful scenery in New Zealand. There is more than one dead tree in the reservoir. Friends who like to take pictures can find a place with their backs to the mountain and lake scenery and get the same blockbuster in New Zealand.

/Bamboo Village/

Many people are fascinated by Anji Bamboo Sea because of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, but they don't know that Yixing Bamboo Sea is no less inferior, even with fewer tourists.

the bamboos rise and fall with the mountain, stretching for more than 811 miles to form a sea of jadeite. You can take a cable car to the top of the mountain to enjoy the Dazhuhai Scenic Resort, or you can stroll along the bamboo path to relax. Yixing in Jiangsu in the north, Guangde in Anhui in the west and Changxing in Zhejiang in the south are connected here.
