Only 2.5 hours direct from Chengdu! This "Cloud Tea Inn" in Mianyang really lets you step on clouds and see the sea of clouds~



The guesthouse is called "Shangshan Shang - Yarisā Yǔquán Tea Inn," hidden in Shiyi Village, Qushan Town, Beichuan Qiang Autonomous County—on the mid-slope of Yuhuang Mountain, nearly 1,000 meters above sea level. On certain weather days, opening the window reveals a sea of clouds wrapping the mountains, as if your feet are stepping on cotton clouds, and every casual photo looks like a "fairyland masterpiece"~

🌿 Tea-themed rustic poetry
It’s a tea-themed guesthouse surrounded by forests and alpine meadows, with a faint tea fragrance in the air. The 10 rooms are all named after tea, each with its own little surprises:

Comes with a private hot spring bath🛁! Soaking in the pool at night, looking up at twinkling stars and nebulae, brewing clear tea by your side, with B&O Bluetooth speakers playing soft music— all the day’s fatigue just melts away~ The best scenic spot in the rooms is equipped with tea sets and wooden mats, where you can curl up during the day to sip tea and watch the green mountains and clouds, with time passing as slowly as softened cotton~

🏘️ The public area hides Qiang ethnic life
The architecture features Qiang characteristics: stone-built houses, the stone-walled "Tianya Courtyard" basking in the sun, and the "Fireplace Leisure" area where you can gather around the stove and warm up—like stepping into the daily life of the Qiang people.

If you want to explore: try moss tea at the "Tea Food Life Hall," touch Qiang tea utensils at the "Qiang Tea Culture Museum," or enjoy a latte while gazing at the mountains in the "Coffee Shop"; dining at the restaurant in the evening is even better: official village chief’s stew, jiaotuan (a local dish), potato glutinous rice cakes… raising a glass to toasting songs, the lively atmosphere mixed with mountain wilderness warms your heart~

There’s also a "Lover’s Tree" hidden in a corner, said to be where Qiang mountain people make vows—very romantic~

📍 Convenient nearby activities
1 hour by car to "Beichuan Qiang City Tourist Area" for cultural sightseeing, 1 hour to "Yaowang Valley" to see flower seas, 25 minutes to "Xunlong Mountain" for scenic exploration; if you don’t want to go far, just pick tea in the tea garden or bask in the sun at Tianya Courtyard—the days here are wonderfully relaxed~
