Benxi Guanshan Lake Xikang Yunshe Health Resort Hotel

Autumn in Benxi is just stunningly beautiful! 🍁 This time I stayed at Benxi Guanshan Lake Xikang Yunshe Health Resort Hotel, where the building surrounded by colorful maple leaves looks like a scene from a fairy tale. Every snapshot is a masterpiece~

📍Perfect Location
The hotel is tucked away in Hubao Village, Caohezhuang Town, just a 5-minute walk from the Azalea Geological Wonder Park! It takes only 1.5 hours by car from Shenyang city center to reach this hidden gem, and the red leaf tunnel along the way is already worth the fuel 🛣️

💯 Top 3 Heavenly Experiences
1️⃣ Bamboo Forest Hot Springs Are Stunning
There are 18 outdoor soaking pools hidden in the bamboo forest. At night, you can soak while counting stars ✨ The water temperature is adjustable. Be sure to choose a pool near the maple forest, where you can look up to see a sky full of red leaves (super private, no worries about being disturbed).

2️⃣ Rooms with Direct Mountain Views
We stayed in a lake view suite with a scenic terrace. Every morning we woke up to a forest dyed in autumn colors. The room features floor heating and a smart toilet, free minibar drinks with refills, and a thoughtful welcome fruit basket 🍇

3️⃣ The Cliffside Infinity Pool Is Legendary
The pool hangs on the edge of a cliff, and during the red leaf season, the water reflects the entire mountain’s colors! It’s best to visit at sunrise or sunset when the light is soft and perfect for photos 📸 (Don’t forget to bring a white swimsuit!)

📸 Photo Tips
• Mirror water feature in the hotel courtyard + red maples (wear apricot/tan colors)
• Bamboo path in the hot spring area (great for overhead shots with depth)
• Floor-to-ceiling windows in the room + morning mist (backlit shots are dreamy)

🚗 Nearby Activities
• 10-minute drive to Guanmenshan (Northeast’s Little Yellow Mountain)
• Hotel offers free shuttle to Xiaoshi Yizhuang (must-try lamb soup!)
• For deep explorers, recommended combined trip to Laobiangou and Dashihu

💡 Practical Tips
• Book rooms at least 1 month in advance during peak maple season in October
• The hotel offers Hanfu rental service (perfect for ancient-style photos)
• For elders, private hot spring rooms are recommended
• Families with kids can request children’s bathrobes and slippers

You’ll truly be moved by the gentle warmth of autumn here~ This hotel perfectly blends Chinese Zen and modern aesthetics, making you understand what it means to "park and sit, loving the maple forest at dusk" 🍂
