1. Location as Scenery: Step Outside to Pan Mountain, Nestled in Nature’s Embrace
Zhiyuan·Nature’s location is truly “textbook perfect,” tucked right in the heart of Pan Mountain Scenic Area in Jizhou, Tianjin. Just a 10-minute walk brings you to the verdant silhouette of Pan Mountain. Here, you avoid the noisy crowds of the tourist spots, yet embrace the mountain views, forest hues, and birdsong. In the morning, open your window to see mist winding around the mountain waist; at night, lie in bed and hear the rustling whispers of wind through the leaves. No need to seek out the scenery—it’s part of the beautiful stay itself.
2. Private Hot Spring Moments: Soak in Healing Warmth Amid the Wilderness
As the “soul highlight” of this beautiful stay, Zhiyuan’s hot springs are definitely worth a special trip. The spring water is drawn from natural underground mineral springs, rich in minerals beneficial to the body. Whether it’s the private soaking pool in your courtyard room or the scenic hot spring pool in the public area, lush greenery cleverly surrounds them, maximizing privacy and ambiance. Imagine stepping into the warm spring water on a cool mountain night, wrapped in a bathrobe, looking up at a sky full of stars, with the sounds of insects and frogs nearby—every bit of fatigue gently dissolved by the soothing water.
3. Immersive Experience: Living a Poetic Slow Life in the Mountains
At Zhiyuan, “vacation” is no longer a rushed tour but an immersive slow-life enjoyment. During the day, you can hike the mountain trails with the housekeeper, picking seasonal wild fruits and vegetables; in the afternoon, curl up on the sofa by the panoramic floor-to-ceiling window with a book and a cup of coffee to while away the time; in the evening, gather with family and friends in the courtyard, roasting charcoal and enjoying authentic farmhouse dishes, or watch an open-air movie with a full atmosphere. There’s no hurried itinerary here, only moments to quietly savor the small joys of life.
4. Thoughtful Details Everywhere: Warm Care from Check-in to Departure
Zhiyuan’s thoughtfulness is hidden in every detail you can think of and even those you wouldn’t expect. Upon arrival, the housekeeper offers warm ginger tea and Pan Mountain specialty snacks, helps with your luggage, and thoroughly introduces every facility of the stay; the rooms are equipped with high-quality bedding and toiletries, and even thoughtfully provide children’s slippers and toys; if you plan to visit Pan Mountain Scenic Area, the housekeeper can also offer exclusive travel route planning to avoid peak crowds, making your trip smoother. Here, you experience not just a stay, but the warmth and comfort of being at home.
