A Secret Lakeside Retreat in Guangzhou: So Beautiful You Won't Want to Leave


Don't waste your weekend! I spent two days and one night at a lakeside guesthouse in Conghua, experiencing an incredibly healing and slow-paced life surrounded by nature. It was like a dream come true~

🌳Waking up to the sound of birdsong, opening the window to a vista of greenery, feeling the mountain breeze on my face, hearing the rustling of bamboo leaves, and breathing in the fresh, oxygen-rich air. In the morning, I joined the villagers to dig bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest. At noon, I savored the fresh spring bamboo shoots I had dug myself. In the afternoon, I fed ducks and fished by the stream. In the evening, I barbecued in the courtyard and fell asleep to the sound of the gurgling stream. This is the rhythm of life I yearn for!

📌Two-day, one-night itinerary: Save it so you don't get lost:
