Yungu Shanfang Hostel

I really love Baiyin Valley, and the two guardians of Yunhe Yunguo B&B. I love that ray of light when I open the door in the morning, and the unexpected sound of the coffee shop's nut-shell chimes accompanied by the sound of water. I'm looking forward to the sixteen rooms. At Yunhe Yunguo, life truly slows down a beat.

An incredibly healing and hidden gem of a guesthouse, the experience was absolutely amazing! ✨ Choosing the right guesthouse for this trip was such a blessing! Even before checking in, the guesthouse staff meticulously explained the place and shared travel tips, helping me book a ride to see the sunrise – so convenient! Walking along the stone paths of the ancient village was difficult, but the staff at the coffee shop even came to help with my luggage and kindly upgraded my room for free. Opening the window revealed a serene and tranquil view, like stepping into a paradise. The food was absolutely amazing! The field carp and bamboo shoot with egg dish at the Yunnan restaurant were incredibly fresh and flavorful, leaving a lasting impression. The breakfast prepared by the guesthouse auntie was exceptionally appetizing, featuring freshly stir-fried seasonal wild vegetables, and she even shared her homemade plum wine and plums – a truly heartwarming and welcoming experience. On my birthday, I asked the guesthouse staff to order a cake, and their thoughtful arrangement was a delightful surprise. The overall experience far exceeded my expectations! The scenery here is truly healing, and every staff member at the guesthouse is warm and helpful – people and scenery alike are lovely. Next time I want to come here again, slow down, stroll around, listen to the babbling brook, and savor the mountain air.

Very nice, large bathroom with shower and bathtub 🛁, and the water pressure was great. The guesthouse has two buildings, one in front of the other, each with its own common area. I really liked the second building where we stayed. Tea was provided in the room. The soundproofing was generally okay, but you could still hear loud conversations late at night; it depends on the other guests' behavior. Besides the breakfast included in the booking, other coffee and food options are at your own expense and are sold by various vendors scattered throughout the village.

The room was very clean, and the surrounding environment was natural and comfortable. The breakfast was also very pleasant; not particularly elaborate or expensive, but very good and all-natural. Most importantly, the staff were very welcoming. On rainy days, they not only brought umbrellas but also accompanied us for a walk around the area and then escorted us to our cars.

After staying in two mountain villages in Lishui, I returned to Kenggen Village. Compared to the previous popular tourist spots, this place is more rustic, tranquil, and understated. A stream flows through the village, making it perfect for a few days of mountain living. In the morning, I strolled along the stream and stumbled upon an unexpected coffee shop. A latte warmed my heart. Then, I visited the library; the guesthouse owner had a rich collection of books, and I was sure to find something I could enjoy. Before I knew it, it was lunchtime, and the delicious food at the Yunwei Restaurant satisfied my appetite. The village, though small, is rich in content, including a small pub and a silver mine museum. If you have the energy, you can hike along the stream all the way to Qixingdun. The village is ancient, but the guesthouses are stylish. The two beautiful owners, adhering to their ideals, have preserved the original charm of this ancient village while maintaining well-maintained village roads and bridges. Seemingly simple, it is actually comfortable and peaceful, making it a place you could easily stay for several days.

The boss is very nice, friendly and enthusiastic. The second time I came to Silver Valley was like coming back to see an old friend. I really like the quiet feeling of this ancient village, which retains the original residents. The room is clean and the food is delicious. I look forward to coming next time. It is also quite close to the Yunhe Terraces.
