It is worthy of being the ancient cliff village recommended by National Geographic

I have always liked the ancient villages in Songyang, Lishui. Each one has its own characteristics.
Especially before April, there are few tourists, so it is suitable to take a leisurely stroll.
So this time I gave up my previous special forces trip.
I only chose Chenjiapu Village to spend two days and one night.
This is the highest ancient village in Songyang.
It was once rated as "the last secret place in Jiangnan" by National Geographic.
It has a history of more than 600 years
With an altitude of more than 800 meters, it is known as the "Little Potala Palace in Southwest Zhejiang".
The village is surrounded by mountains on three sides and is also called the ancient village on the cliff.
My favorite 📖 Pioneer Bookstore is also located here
Although the village has been developed for a long time
But it still retains the original flavor of the ancient village
Walking inside, you won't feel too much of a commercial atmosphere.
This time I stayed at the highest point of the village 🏨 Shanye Yunye B&B
You can enjoy the entire mountaintop view alone, just like living above the clouds
You can see the sea of clouds from your room in the morning
When we checked out and went down the mountain, we heard someone next to us say:
The weather was bad this time, it was all foggy outside and I couldn't see anything...
Our hearts are secretly happy:
This morning, the view of the sea of clouds from the top of the mountain was simply stunning❗️
🛏️Although it is a homestay, its quality is comparable to that of a five-star hotel
Starting from 50 square meters, each room has a different view
There is air conditioning and floor heating, and the bathroom has a heater with a clothes dryer function.
The quality of toiletries is also very good, and they also gave away souvenirs and snacks.
The service was also very friendly, and sweet soup was delivered to the room in the evening
In addition to the rooms, the public areas are also beautiful❗️
I especially like the panoramic glass house restaurant on the second floor.
It’s so healing to enjoy the sea of clouds while having breakfast!
The coffee shop in the lobby is also very nice.
Both places are open to the public, and you can come and eat even if you don't stay.
I have personally tested that the main meals here are delicious! No blind spots
The homestay also has a teahouse, billiards, KTV, and intangible cultural heritage activities...
Suitable for family outings or team building activities
