Explore the hidden gem of southern Zhejiang and stay at 'Taishun Nichibori'.

Red Rock Twin Waterfalls
Discover the Red Rock Twin Waterfalls in southern Zhejiang: a summer retreat hidden amidst crimson cliffs

When the city is engulfed by heatwaves, the Red Rock Twin Waterfalls in Taishun, nestled in the mountains of southern Zhejiang, offer a refreshing escape gifted by nature. No need for a long trek—follow the roaring sound through the forest and turn a mountain bend to find the crimson cliffs suddenly in view. Layers of red rocks resemble armor scorched by time, while two white waterfalls cascade down like rushing galaxies, side by side. At times, they shatter into pearl-like mist, refracting delicate rainbows; at others, they meander along the rocks, sketching a poetic interplay of strength and softness.

Step into the cool stream, and the summer heat instantly dissipates. Children chase splashes of water, while adults sit quietly, watching the mist drift over the red rocks. Sunlight filters through the leaves, casting dappled shadows, and even the air carries the sweet freshness of greenery. Visit in the early morning or after rain, and the red rocks become even more vivid, soaked in moisture, while the waterfalls bring a fragrant breeze. The entire world feels damp, cool, and alive, as if you've stepped into a living landscape painting.

Nichibori Boutique Stay: Bringing sunsets and starlight into your window with the gentle embrace of the mountains

Taishun Nichibori Boutique Stay (Jiaoyang Tulou Inn)

While the city brews its hustle and bustle, 'Nichibori' in the mountains of Zhejiang quietly holds onto the romance of twilight. Wooden lodges are built along the hillside, with green tiles reflecting the setting sun. Open the door to the scent of nature. The living room glows warmly, spilling light over the sofa and old books, filling the air with a relaxed and cozy ambiance.

Choose a scenic room, where the window opens to layered mountain views, rice fields, and bamboo groves, all softened into gentle greens by the twilight. The best time is at dusk, when the sunset paints the sky in shades of orange and pink. The afterglow streams through the window frames, and as the light dances, even your breathing slows down.

As night falls, lanterns light up the courtyard. On the terrace, feel the breeze and listen to the chirping insects, while the hostess serves fragrant silver ear soup. Summer nights reveal a low-hanging galaxy of stars, while autumn nights bring moonlight and the soft rustle of falling leaves. Wake up to the sound of birds in the morning, and enjoy a breakfast of fresh vegetables from the garden and freshly ground soy milk—simple yet heartwarming.

Here, there are no hurried alarms, only the natural rhythm of time and just the right amount of warmth. Mountain breezes flow through the windows, sunsets fill your bowls, and starlight spills onto your bed. 'Nichibori' turns everyday life into poetry. Come and let Zhejiang's twilight embrace your fatigue, and wait for a rendezvous with the sunrise and the stars.
