Family Trip to Guizhou: Stay in Dreamy B&Bs and Explore Stunning Attractions

Guizhou is truly perfect for family trips! Our recent visit to Xingyi with the kids felt like a magical journey—our friends even thought we were vacationing abroad! Our stay at Bookhouse B&B was absolutely fantastic. Nestled in a Miao village against the mountains, it sits at nearly the highest point, offering breathtaking views. The outdoor hot spring pool at the summit overlooks the entire village. At night, the twinkling lights scattered across the hills had our kids jumping with joy, and we were utterly enchanted too.
