Taking kids to explore Chongzuo! The scenery at these hotels is even more stunning than picture books

Bringing kids to Chongzuo for a vacation? Choosing the right hotel is half the battle won! The infinity pool on the mountaintop is perfect for playing with the kids. While he splashes in the water, I lie back and watch the distant mountains. The karst peaks look like they’re popping out of a painting. Sometimes the sun shines, sometimes a bit of mist drifts by. The kid points and says, “Mom, look! The mountains are doing magic!” On the day we encountered a sea of clouds, he kept snapping photos with his little camera, saying he wanted to save them to show his kindergarten teacher✨

✅ Chongzuo Dazeipo Yunding Panorama Resort
42 rooms, the smallest is 45㎡, plenty of space for kids! Most rooms have floor-to-ceiling windows. In the morning, when you open the curtains, the whole mountain and water scene bursts into view. The kid climbs to the window to count the peaks, “1, 2, 3… Mom, there are so many pointy mountains here!”

✅ Guangxi Chongzuo Secret Realm Lishi Resort
By the Ming Shi River on the China-Vietnam border, embraced by banana groves, rooms start at 80㎡. The bed faces a large floor-to-ceiling window. When the kid wakes up, the first thing he shouts is “Mountains! River!” At night, after turning off the lights, you can see stars falling from the sky. He leans on the window counting them, and soon falls asleep in my arms~

⭐ What can kids play with?

Ming Shi River bamboo raft afternoon tea: The kid holds a small cake, watching fish swim by the raft, mumbling “Fishy wants some too?”
Ming Shi countryside cycling: Rent a child trailer, he sits inside humming songs, the breeze carries the scent of rice flowers, so comfortable
Infinity starlight pool: Play in the water at dusk, watch the sunset dye the mountains golden red, he says “It looks like strawberry-flavored sunset!”
Weizhou Island electric cart tour: Rent a family cart, he stands in front holding the handle, shouting “Ocean! Here I come!” while circling the island
Starry sky cinema: Wrapped in a blanket watching cartoons at night, he leans on dad’s chest munching popcorn, life couldn’t be more peaceful~
