Shui Yun Xiang Forest Healing Resort cleverly dissolves the boundary between artificial and natural. The whole building adopts the "localized" design language, based on the unique rocks of Limutai, with wood and glass materials, making the building seem to grow naturally from the mountains and forests.
The room has 270° panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows and a cantilevered terrace. In the morning, you can see the sea of clouds passing over the distant mountains. It is equipped with a customized aromatherapy system and a natural latex mattress. The ecological intelligent system, floor heating, and fresh air are powered by solar energy. The toiletries are a customized series of plant essential oils, and even the pajamas are made of organic cotton and linen. Details include hand-made pottery tea sets, mountain wild dried flower arrangements, and daily changes of seasonal fresh fruits.
The restaurant's breakfast offers a combination of freshly ground walnut dew + Jizhou shortbread with sesame + wild raspberry jam. For dinner, the chef recommends local dishes such as wild jujube sprouts fried with local eggs and Limutai spring water stewed reservoir fish.
What truly distinguishes Shui Yun Xiang from traditional B&Bs is its complete healing system. The forest SPA pavilion uses dogwood essential oil to comb the meridians; morning Tai Chi and evening singing bowl courses; the 2 km circular path of the natural healing trail has 7 energy stations.
The B&B is located in the core area of the national Limutai Scenic Area, within walking distance of: Rhododendron Flower Sea (April) / Wild Pear Flower Valley (May), Emerald Pool Diving / Primitive Secondary Forest Exploration, Thousand-acre Chestnut Picking / Red Leaf Canyon Photography, Ice Waterfall Spectacle / Forest Snowfield Hiking.
