A Fairy Tale Castle Hidden in the Bamboo Forest

When the morning mist drifts over the bamboo sea of Mogan Mountain, the spires of Naked Castle emerge faintly through the clouds. This century-old castle perched at an altitude of 600 meters is no longer just a simple residence but a living work of art refined by time, waiting for every heart longing to escape to find rest here.

Push open the carved iron gate, where medieval knight sculptures harmonize with the verdant bamboo of the mountains. The castle’s stone walls are covered with vines, each line engraved with stories of the years — this was once the century-old home of Scottish missionaries. Today, while preserving its vintage charm, it incorporates a naturalistic design philosophy. Inside the guest rooms, solid wood furniture emits a warm fragrance, and oversized floor-to-ceiling windows frame the mountain scenery like a flowing painting. Brew a pot of local Anji white tea, watch sunlight filter through bamboo leaves casting dappled shadows, and the clamor of the world is instantly left behind beyond the mountains.

There’s no need to plan your itinerary meticulously; time at Naked Castle is meant to be lazy and free. Jog along the bamboo forest trails in the morning, listening to birdsong and the wind weaving a natural symphony; swim in the infinity pool on the cliffside in the afternoon, watching clouds roll across the horizon; gather around the fireplace at dusk, savoring creative dishes made with local ingredients paired with a glass of red wine, letting the twilight bathe the castle in a gentle orange glow. For adventure lovers, horseback riding through the bamboo sea, mountain biking on rugged trails, or an outdoor spa infused with the scent of herbal essential oils await.

Here, luxury has never been separated from nature. Naked Castle reconnects people with the land and sky in the purest way. When night falls, look up to see the Milky Way stretching across the sky, stars twinkling alongside the castle’s lights. In this moment, you understand what it means to “be trapped in a cage for long, yet return to nature again.”

Mogan Mountain Naked Castle is not the end of a journey but the beginning of a dialogue with yourself. Here, time slows down, the heart quiets, and you rediscover the truest beauty of the naked heart in nature’s embrace.
