Located within the Changtai Mayangxi Ecological Tourism Area, the Nature & Traces Homestay is nestled in the hinterland of the Xiamen-Zhangzhou-Quanzhou triangle, facing the picturesque Tianzhu Mountain National Forest Park. It is only a 40min drive from Xiamen, 1.5h from Quanzhou, and just a few dozen kilometers from Zhangzhou city center, making transportation extremely convenient.
Design
The exterior resembles a high-tech space capsule with its curved architecture, cool and undoubtedly a work by designer Zhuang Ziyu. The fourth floor houses the curved pine nut library, and the rooftop boasts an open-air swimming pool and bar. Accompanied by the sunset, the whole building is set against a backdrop of greenery and water reflections, brimming with architectural beauty.
Room
Upon entering the room, you are enveloped by the mountain's twilight glow, the language of the seasons, and the colors of the starlit moon, as if you've stepped into a fairyland. The solid-colored fabrics, Southeast Asian-style rattan weaving, and artists' works, every detail exudes tenderness and tranquility. Art pieces, tea sets, wooden tables and chairs, and rattan carpets, everything is pleasingly arranged.
Dining
Breakfast is buffet style, while dinner is a set menu, with light and non-greasy flavors, suitable for families with children.
Entertainment
The Nature Classroom on the first floor is super fun, offering pottery painting, coffee crafting, plant printing, clay molding, woodworking, and more, suitable for friends of all ages. We just came back from Jingdezhen and are still enthusiastic about pottery, so we painted a colorful pottery piece, looking forward to the finished product after firing. This space also features a children's projection and audio area, which the kids are very satisfied with.
Experience
This homestay in Fujian is exclusively equipped with the Lang Poetry Six Constant Health Fortress System, completely freeing you from the troubles of air conditioning, maintaining a comfortable temperature through radiant heat. At night, lying in bed, you can watch the clouds roll by, and waking up in the morning to a view full of greenery, both body and mind are healed.
