Winter in the Qinling Mountains! A healing ritual | Around Xi'an

| Around Xi'an. "White stones emerge from the Jingxi River, and red leaves are scarce in the cold weather."
🍂 The grand autumn colors are gradually fading away.
The first snow of this winter has fallen on Zibai Mountain❄️
Winter has quietly arrived.
Autumn harvest and winter storage, everything is silent.
The warmth of fireworks🔥 is also hidden deep in the mountains.
Escape from the desolate and busy city.
3 hours' drive from Xi'an🚗
A warm gathering moment.

1️⃣ Tea by the stove: 🍵
☀️ Winter is inseparable from the stove. The ritual of entering winter begins with tea by the stove. A touch of warm color in the cold wind, moving the tea room to the countryside, creating a full Chinese aesthetic atmosphere!

☀️ In addition to slow-cooked tea, there is also a good view to accompany the taste. The leisure and comfort of life flow in the boiling tea. Roast some chestnuts🌰, peanuts🥜, a few seasonal persimmons🍅 and oranges🍊, and warm your whole body in the rising steam.

2️⃣ Authentic hot pot: 🍲
☀️ After the autumn harvest, save the harvest of the year for the winter. In addition to a pot of good tea, the winter-limited fire pot returns, using local ingredients to pick up the deliciousness of the land.

☀️ Stew a local chicken with locally grown gastrodia and ginseng. The burning charcoal roasts the clay pot, bringing out the original flavor of the ingredients. Sit around and taste the authentic specialties of Liuba and the long-lost village flavor 🥘

3️⃣ Handmade experience: 🎨
☀️ Woodblock prints are a traditional folk art in Hanzhong and an intangible cultural heritage of Shaanxi Province. The characters come to life in the smooth and dynamic lines, showcasing the enduring cultural charm.
In the rustic countryside courtyard, personally color a woodblock print. In the healing handmade process, the body and mind slow down unconsciously, immersing in the traditional winter memory 🖌️

4️⃣ Healing courtyard: 🏡
☀️ At the end of autumn, discover the different scenery of the Qinling Mountains in winter. Experience the leisure of the mountains and villages during the off-peak season. Stay in the Loufanggou courtyard, transformed from old houses scattered in the mountains, to heal your tired body and mind 🍃

☀️ Or encounter a mountain snow, as if falling into a misty ink painting. The warm yellow lights of the courtyard dispel the cold. Drink a cup of freshly ground coffee, lazily enjoying the winter scenery outside the window, stealing a moment of leisure ☕

☀️ Invite a few friends or bring your furry kids. Click the bottom left corner to embrace the same warm winter in the mountains 🐶👭
