Taicang 72 Jiacun Shufrog Tribe

The unique shape of the house is a selling point. The round room has a good view, and there are floor-to-ceiling windows in front of the bed. It is very comfortable to watch the wind blowing the wheat waves. There are few furniture in the house, no decent table, and no suitable storage area for luggage. The bathroom door opens to the corridor, and there is no suitable place to hang towels and put clothes. There is no TV in the room. Entertainment and dining are concentrated on the riverside about 400 meters away, which is not very playable. The guest room area is separated from the external public road by a small wooden door that is not closed. During the day, outsiders are very noisy, and from time to time someone goes up the stairs directly to take pictures on the small platform at the door of the room, which is very annoying. The breakfast is simple, and 90% of the content is basically captured in one photo, and one-third of it is fruit. There is no butter knife, no stirring stick, and although the coffee sugar is not expired, it has been a long time, and the coffee machine is still equipped with a disposable cup... There is no parking lot of its own, and parking can only be on the roadside. Fortunately, it didn't rain, otherwise it would be dragging luggage on the public road. I hope that the homestay can also improve its soft service level, otherwise it will be difficult to support such a price purely by gimmicks.

The room is quite big, surrounded by rice fields and not far from the river. It is the best choice for a two-day and one-night stay in Ideal Village. The only thing is that there are not many places to eat outside. It is recommended to book lunch and dinner at the hotel in advance!

Choose a weekday. Stay in the lotus leaf house. The room is very clean and bright, with large floor-to-ceiling windows. Outside the window is an endless wheat field. Basking in the sun 🌞 and drinking a pot of tea is refreshing. The room is a parent-child room. There is a child's bed in the middle of the house, in addition to building blocks and giraffe chairs. When checking in, I added the housekeeper's WeChat. If you need anything, you can send a message directly to the housekeeper. You can buy tickets for the small train at the front desk, 40 per person, and there are fixed times every day. It takes less than seven minutes to walk to the beach. You can also rent a cute little electric car to tour the whole village.

It is only a little over an hour's drive from Shanghai, so we set off right after school. The lotus leaf house is large and has a great view. In the evening, we can sit on the terrace inside the house and watch the wind blowing the wheat waves. At night, we can look up and count the stars. The children are very happy.

🏡 Accommodation options: Tree Frog Tribe Immersive Experience This time, our two families chose two room types, and the experience is as follows: 1. 🏠Triangular Tree House: The design of the suspended wooden house is like a fairy tale scene. The attic climbing ladder allows children to become "jungle explorers". The viewing window can enjoy the wheat field. It is suitable for families over 4 years old, but it should be noted that the gap between the attic stairs is large, and it is recommended that young babies sleep on the lower floor. 2. ♨️Private Bath Room: The attic bathing pool is matched with the starry sky ceiling, and the bubble bath gel is given away. Children love to play. The bed is facing the balcony and the small train track. In the early morning, watching the "Jianghai" crossing the rapeseed field, the romance value is full. The hotel's infinity pool was not open when we went there. It is said that it will be open soon. If it is open, it should be very good. --- 🌊Must-play baby activities 1. 🦀River Beach Crab Digging - Equipment: small shovel + small bucket, wear non-slip gloves, wear one-piece shoes or river tracing shoes, and walk painlessly on the river beach. - Golden time: 2 hours after low tide (the housekeeper will remind you), ⚠️Dig in the place where there are holes 🕳️ on the muddy river beach, and you will most likely get a small crab! - Hidden Easter Egg: There is a giant "Liuhe" landmark at the end of the Rainbow Road at the entrance of the river bank, which is super beautiful for taking photos📷 2. 🚞Small train "Jianghaihao" - Route: Crossing the countryside, orchards, and riverbanks, one-way 30 minutes, homestay residents buy tickets at the front desk for 35r (RMB 45). - Time: The last train is at 17:30, it is recommended to take it before 16:00. 3. 🚲Natural cycling and outdoor sports - Parent-child cycling: Borrow a bicycle to ride along the river bank and feel the pastoral scenery of river breeze and wheat waves. - Tiger car and panda car (electric parent-child car): 120r per hour, I think it's a bit high, so I didn't rent it😂 --- 💡 Practical tips for walking kids 1. Transportation: 1 hour direct drive from Shanghai, 15 minutes taxi from Taicang Station by high-speed rail. 2. Equipment: sun hat, river trekking shoes (to prevent mudflat gravel), mosquito repellent spray. 3. Safety: The stones on the river beach are sharp, and ordinary sandals are easy to scratch🪨There are no standard steps where you go down the river bank, so be careful when climbing up and down. 4. Dining: We had a meal at a newly opened barbecue restaurant by the river bank, barbecued around the stove🥩, the set meal was 400+ for six people, not bad, and it felt good outdoors. For puffer fish🐡, it is recommended to go to the farmhouse near Liuhe Ancient Town. We ate at two or three restaurants, and the pufferfish was really delicious😍 --- 🎨 Seasonal gameplay 🪁 Spring: taking photos in the rapeseed fields (March-April), flying kites in the fields. 🌞 Summer: stargazing at night (no light pollution), tracking fireflies. 🍂 Autumn: Rice Field Art Festival, citrus picking. ❄️ Winter: strawberry picking, brewing tea around the fire by the river. 📍 Taicang · Seventy-two Ideal Villages
