    Hotel is conveniently located 5-10mins walk away from back mountain bus station and surrounded by many eateries and convenience shops. Room was big, bed was extremely comfortable, and they gave quality toiletries. There was even floor heater to keep the room warm. There was free home style daily breakfast and free hotspring. Was told hotel has their own water supply from hotspring. Staffs were very friendly. They introduced a tour guide at RMB 500 for a day trip to climb the mountain with my group of 7 pax. The tour guide was knowledgeable and helped us saved a lot of time and energy to avoid climbing the most tedious trail, and brought us to the scenic trail.

    We live in Hongcun and come to Xidi today. I can't help but compare the two attractions: 1. The drone can scan the QR code at the Xidi ticket office to report (Hongcun is not allowed to fly). 2. We are foreign tourists, the staff is very enthusiastic, and thank us for coming to Xidi for sightseeing. 3. Xidi's buildings are very well preserved, commercialization is not as serious as Hongcun, and there are beautiful scenery at every corner. It has not been finished for a long time. 4. There is an observation deck at one end of Xidi's rice field, overlooking the entire Xidi. Very suitable for drone lifting. 5. Xidi is very quiet and leisurely, suitable for slowly strolling, unlike Hongcun, which is all travel photography. 6. We dine in millet coffee, the environment is beautiful, and the dishes are good. In Hongcun Village, I can't find a simple meal that I can eat / Western food.

    Qiyun Mountain in April is beautiful like a fairyland. The clouds and mist are lingering, and the mountains are full of greenery, as if they are in a picture scroll. There are many monuments, and every place is hidden with traces of history. The air is fresh and refreshing. Although climbing the mountain is tired, the scenery along the way is great value, I want to come next time! 📸 Suggestion for the first picture: A mountain view of Qiyun Mountain, which highlights the sense of a fairyland.

    The Baguamen Bagua Village in Chengkan is very interesting, the lake view is beautiful, the fish light show at night is very experience, the first Baguamen in Jiangnan is also very magnificent, but the management is a little confused: maybe because the Baguamen is some distance from the lake, there have been evading tickets before, so I have set up a lot of ID cards. The access control, and the registered homestay in the village after 7.1, there is no discount for booking tickets, but the validity period is still three days, two more days than the one-day ticket I bought online. In addition, some villagers feel too profit-making: there are grandmothers arguing with each other for the 20 yuan explanation fee, and the private hotel next to Yongxing Lake is too expensive after coming out. After saying good prices, the price will be increased. The experience is very bad. Chengkan itself is very good, the sense of view and experience are very strong, but the overall development of the villagers is not strong, I hope to have the opportunity to see a better Chengkan next time.
