Weekend 24-Hour Escape to a Mountain Retreat

Wake up to the sound of wind and admire the clouds in the wilderness.

The city's heatwave automatically quiets down here.
Hidden within the folds of Moganshan lies a secluded paradise.
Just a 15-minute drive from Yucun, yet it feels like stepping into another world.
The bamboo forest filters the early summer heat into scattered light spots.
Wild raspberries ripen to a deep purple along the path in front of the house.
Pick one, and the sweet and tangy juice instantly quenches the summer heat.

Secluded, but not isolated from the world.
▫️ Deeply hidden: Qingli is nestled at the foot of Moganshan in a private location, surrounded 360° by red maples and bamboo. Even GPS navigation hesitates for a moment.
▫️ Easy to reach: A 2-hour drive from Shanghai or Hangzhou, with the last stretch of mountain road feeling like opening a blind box—turn a corner and suddenly encounter a light Japanese-style house.
▫️ Away from the hustle, yet close to convenience: A 10-minute walk to a wild waterfall, and a 15-minute drive to Yucun for trendy coffee spots—offering both seclusion and accessibility.

Romantic mountain living, spending time on delightful little things.
▫️ Morning berry picking:
Carry a bamboo basket and follow the housekeeper to the back mountain. Brambles, blackberries, and raspberries hide among the thorns. Pick a handful and toss them into a bowl of yogurt for a forest-exclusive dessert.
▫️ Evening stroll at Yucun Slow Market:
Drive down the mountain to the Republic-era style street, browse handmade tie-dye crafts, and sip on iced Americano while listening to the nostalgic tunes of an old record player.
▫️ Nighttime stargazing:
As night falls, the Milky Way gradually appears. Just lie back on a deck chair and wait for fireflies to greet you with their glowing lanterns.

🛏️ Sleep amidst the breath of the mountains.
All 8 rooms feature mountain-facing windows 🪟.
Cotton and linen bedding carry the scent of sunlight.
In the morning, pull open the curtains to see mist rising from the valley.
This is the perfect moment to start a healing early summer day.
