Guest User: We enjoyed 2 nights family trip with two kids this summer. For the location, it takes almost 2 hours by car from Shenzhen, a big far away from the main city but I feel relaxed and good fresh air from the countryside. The hotel has facilities like water park, swimming pool, indoor playground, 62 hot springs (next to the hotel) which fully occupies our both kids during our stay. We didn’t leave our hotel and spent our breakfast and dinner buffets (both came with the hotel package with trip.com, quite a good deal), we had a 2-5 set lunch in hotel’s Chinese restaurant, the quality is quite good and not pricy. There’s an outdoor pool in our balcony, we had a family hot springs moment after back to the room after our buffet dinner, very peaceful and good time with family. It feels like we were in japan but in a very reasonable price in this hotel. Free drinks and fruits were provided around the water park and hot springs area which credits for their services. Thank you for the wonderful service and facilities during our stay.

Kuailedechushi: Having stayed at other Ramada hotels before, I chose the Ramada for my trip to Longmen. It was a truly remarkable choice. This hotel is arguably the best in Longmen County, with excellent amenities. The guest rooms were large, the bedding was comfortable, and the cleanliness was excellent. The views overlooking Zengjiang River and Fenta Mountain Forest Park were particularly stunning. The staff were warm and courteous, and deserve praise. They even provided complimentary milk and fruit every day. The buffet breakfast was excellent in both variety and quality, which I highly recommend. Parking at the hotel was convenient and free. A souvenir was also given upon departure. Having visited many county towns, I rarely find a hotel this good and this value-for-money. Highly recommended.

Thinking of taking the whole family for a quick getaway over the weekend, we chose the Nankunshan Daguan Garden Hot Spring ♨️.

After staying in the city for too long, you start to feel dull. It wasn't until the car turned into Nankun Mountain and I rolled down the window that the breeze, carrying the scent of bamboo leaves and damp earth, rushed in. Only then did I realize—breathing can actually make you "drunk" 🌿 This time, I didn't rush my itinerary; I just wanted to find a place to spend a quiet weekend. I chose the Longmen Nankunshan Yeyan Fireworks World Homestay (Nankunshan Branch), and it didn't disappoint. I stayed in a hot spring room with a private hot spring pool 🛁. It was over 50 square meters, and opening the window revealed a mountain view. In the evening, I filled the pool with hot water and soaked in it, with only the sound of insects and faint, distant music in my ears. At that moment, it felt like I had finally switched from "surviving" back to "living." But what truly made this trip special was what happened after nightfall. The night at Nankun Mountain was originally a deep, sinking ink blue. Then, fireworks burst overhead, and the entire valley was illuminated for a moment. It wasn't the kind you watch from afar; it was the kind where you sit in the courtyard, look up, and feel the light and heat right on your face. The immersive fireworks show was accompanied by songs from the evening party. Beside me, some people hummed along softly, some laughed while holding up their phones, and others just watched quietly—everyone was gently enveloped by the same glow. If the fireworks were the romantic climax, then the leisure of the daytime was the gentle prelude. There is a swimming pool in the courtyard, and the water is clean enough that you can feel at ease letting your children splash around. KTV, billiards, and barbecue facilities are all available, so no one will be bored, whether it's a family trip or a company team-building event. The afternoon tea was surprisingly thoughtful. Sitting on the lawn, eating, and zoning out, time seemed to move much slower than usual. There are also places to explore nearby. A ten-minute drive takes you to Chuanlong Waterfall and Guanyin Pool, where the refreshing mist hitting your face is a pleasure that city air conditioning can't provide. If you just want to relax, the pet-friendly policy is enough to warm the hearts of dog owners—furry friends can also come into the mountains for the weekend 🐾 When I left, the mountains in the rearview mirror grew smaller and smaller. But I know that some nights stay with you—like the lingering warmth on your skin after a hot spring soak, the faint scent of gunpowder in the air after the fireworks fade, and that sense of relaxation where "you didn't do anything, yet everything is better." If you are also looking for a place where you don't have to rush, but just feel, Nankunshan Yeyan might be the answer 🎇
At this time of day, the mountain breeze in Longmen carries a refreshing scent 🍂, and the afternoon sun shines through the bamboo forest.

Driving to Nankun Mountain, I passed through bamboo forests at an altitude of over 600 meters and discovered a hidden, secluded tea plantation manor by the shallows. I decided to stay for a night. Drinking tea 🍵, soaking in hot springs ♨️, and watching the clouds and mist ☁️—it was the perfect way to decompress. Surrounded by bamboo forests and ancient trees, the area boasts a negative ion concentration of up to 110,000/m³. Shrouded in mist year-round, it feels ethereal, and the air is crisp and cool. At the manor, I brewed a cup of organic Nankun Mountain Maocha tea using weakly alkaline spring water. Sitting in a comfortable, stylish room overlooking the lake, I felt far removed from the hustle and bustle of daily life. It was the perfect embodiment of the poem: "Passing the bamboo courtyard to chat with a monk, stealing half a day of leisure from life." The property offers various types of guest rooms and comprehensive facilities: ♨️ Spring water swimming pool ♨️ Hot spring soaking pool ♨️ Rooftop massage hot spring pool 🌿 Large lawn activity area ⛺ Large canopy 🌊 Natural lake + lakeside boardwalk It also boasts 600 acres of Nankun Mountain's unique Centenarian Tea plantation. Guests can enjoy complimentary tastings of this exclusive tea, making for a truly immersive experience ✅ Overall, it’s perfect for team building, gatherings with friends and family, or family vacations. Kids can even catch fish, so you won't be bored at all during a two-day, one-night stay. This trip to Nankun Mountain was a real gem. I’ve added another great spot to my vacation bucket list ✅

As night falls, the courtyard lights turn on one by one. At 9:30 PM, the charcoal fire is just getting started, cold drinks are beaded with condensation, and the tables are set. The stars haven't filled the sky yet, but the few on the horizon are enough to watch for a while. · The host waits by the lawn, the charcoal fire already roaring. When guests arrive, they greet them like old friends from afar—sit down and chat; everyone is friendly. · The BBQ is slow-cooked. The skewers sizzle, and as oil drips into the charcoal, small flames dance up. No one is rushing, and there's no need to hurry. You can sprawl out in your chair all night, enjoying the evening breeze and the BBQ. · Fireworks aren't common, and we never use them as a selling point, because BBQ, cold drinks, the evening breeze, and the stars are the friends that show up here every day. · 🏕️ How to enjoy the night courtyard Evening | Lawn lights turn on, charcoal fire is lit, head to the lawn to relax Night | BBQ with an evening breeze, stars come out, put your phone away If you're lucky | A fireworks show to end the night · --- [About Chenyan Secret Realm] Located in Yonghan Town, Longmen, Huizhou, next to Nankun Mountain.

We don't promise fireworks, but BBQ, cold drinks, evening breezes, and stars are always here. · 🏡 Chenyan Secret Realm Homestay Yonghan Town, Longmen, Huizhou (next to Nankun Mountain) 🚗 1.5–2h drive from Guangzhou, Foshan, or Shenzhen
With so many homestays in Nankun Mountain, how different could they really be? But when our car turned into the R&F Health Valley and I saw that stone-built French architecture, I silently pulled out my phone to start recording. Stay in a French manor, with a balcony leading straight to the pool The manor is located inside the R&F Nankun Mountain Hot Spring Health Valley in Yonghan Town, about a 90-minute drive from Guangzhou. Parking is free, and there are charging stations, which is very friendly for families with electric vehicles. The moment we opened the door to our room, my kid let out a "wow." We booked a twin room with direct access to the pool and a private hot spring. As soon as the balcony door opened, the heated pool was right at our feet. My kid changed into a swimsuit and jumped right in. I sat on the balcony chair watching, and I finally understood what "laid-back parenting" really means. The room comes with a private hot spring soaking tub. After the kids were asleep at night, I soaked in the hot spring and looked at the stars—this is what a vacation should be. Kids have their fun, and adults have their own To be honest, the thing I fear most when traveling with kids is having "nothing to do but watch TV." Pella does a great job here. The hotel has an exclusive children's playroom. The butler prepared children's slippers, small toys, and a step stool in advance, so the sink was within reach—the details were spot on. The outdoor pool and swings were enough to keep the kid busy all afternoon. The amenities for adults are not an afterthought either: KTV, a game room, a billiards room, a gym, a book bar, and a vinyl bar are all available. We went with a few other families, and at night after the kids were asleep, the adults took turns singing in the KTV or playing a few rounds of billiards. It was much better than just sitting around scrolling through our phones. Breakfast is a set menu with both Western and Chinese options. Eating while looking at the greenery outside the window was lovely, and the plating was thoughtful. Remember to save room for afternoon tea; the taste exceeded expectations. 3-day, 2-night itinerary Day 1: Arrival + stream play Depart from Guangzhou in the morning and have some local farmhouse cuisine in Yonghan Town for lunch. In the afternoon, head to the Stone River Wonder (Shihe Qiguan). The stream is shallow and crystal clear. My kid spent the whole afternoon wading and catching fish, and the entire area is shaded by trees, so it's not too sunny. Return to the manor in the evening to soak in the private hot spring, and take a walk around the manor at night. If you're lucky, you might see fireworks. Day 2: Waterfall + observation deck Sleep in, and after breakfast, head to Chuanlong Waterfall. The mist from the five-level waterfall is refreshing and much cooler than in the city. In the afternoon, go to the Jiuchong Viewpoint. You don't need to hike; just drive nearby and walk a few steps to overlook the entire bamboo forest. Return to the manor in the evening; adults can hit the KTV, and the kids can wind down in the playroom. Day 3: A slow wrap-up Spend the morning taking photos at the manor. The French stone architecture and the garden make for great pictures. Before checking out, take a stroll around the Wandong Ancient Village, which is just 150 meters away—a perfect walk to help digest breakfast. Have some farmhouse food for lunch before heading back. My kid fell asleep the second they got in the car. For food, don't just look at the hotel The manor's dining is mainly focused on breakfast and afternoon tea. For main meals, I recommend going out. The farmhouse cuisine in Yonghan Town is the real soul of the trip. Must-eat list: · Steamed free-range chicken with shallots: The skin is smooth and the meat is tender, and the aroma of the shallots is incredible. · Casserole-baked reservoir fish head: Fresh, tender, and flavorful; my kid ate half a pot. · Bamboo rice: Freshly cooked bamboo rice with cured meat; my kid thought it was fun and delicious. · Mountain spring tofu: The tofu feast in Yonghan Town is worth a special trip; it's so tender it melts in your mouth. I recommend Jiajia Farmhouse (Guanyintan Branch). It's about 65 per person. The blanched bean curd skin, stir-fried mountain snails with perilla, and bamboo tube meatballs are all signature dishes and offer great value. Also, the boiled chicken and "bawanghua" (night-blooming cereus) chicken claw soup at Qianwei Farmhouse are great—drinking a bowl after a hot spring soak makes you feel completely relaxed.

It covers it all: scenery, hot springs, Su Dongpo culture, and family-friendly vacations. 🚗 · 🗺️ [Road Trip Route] Mount Luofu Expressway Exit 0km Marker ➠ Xiangang Reservoir ➠ Lvping Stone Beach ➠ Millennium Ancient Banyan Tree ➠ Zengjiang Bamboo Bank ➠ 218 Viral Slope ➠ Mid-Mountain Sea of Clouds ➠ Xiangxi Valley ➠ Yonghan River ➠ Shisanba ➠ Xialang Creek Rest Stop · 📸 [Must-Visit Spots on the 218 Loop] ❶ Xiangang Reservoir Rest Stop Built next to the viewing platform, it offers a panoramic view of the entire reservoir. 🌊 When the mist rises over the lake in the early morning, it's so peaceful you won't want to leave. ❷ Lvping Stone Beach Rest Stop A pure white circular floating installation that looks like a UFO parked in the forest. 🛸 It creates a striking contrast with the stone beach and stream—every photo you take looks like a professional shot. 📷 ❸ Millennium Ancient Banyan Rest Stop A 1,018-year-old banyan tree. 🌳 Its canopy spreads out like an umbrella across the sky.

Continuous undulating mountain slopes + smooth curves. Few cars and beautiful scenery—the perfect spot for epic road trip photos. ✅ ❺ Mid-Mountain Sea of Clouds Rest Stop Hidden deep in the mist of Nankun Mountain. 🌫️ Come here after the rain to see the hazy mountains and clouds flowing beneath your feet.

The overall environment is elegant and pleasant, with many private hot spring pools, both indoor and outdoor. The facilities and equipment have been upgraded. The only drawback is that the hot spring lounge only has two kinds of fruit, no porridge or biscuits, and the service is slow, so you have to cut them slowly by yourself.
珊瑚海TracyVery beautiful, away from the hustle and bustle. It's nice to go out for a walk and relax. I walked up step by step with my children. There are many plants on the roadside and the air is quite fresh. There are many hiking experts, and the atmosphere of climbing is very good. It's also very beautiful to take pictures. Special experience: The Toumao Peak is generally quiet and comfortable, but there are delicious foods in Sanmao Peak, and the noodles are super delicious Transportation: Parking is super convenient, there is a parking lot at the foot of the mountain
thuyutVisiting the icefall in winter is a great experience. The scenic trails are equipped with snow chains, making it easy to walk on. The icefalls hang from the cliffs, their layers of icicles crystal clear and sparkling in the sunlight—a truly beautiful sight. At the foot of the mountain, there are vendors selling roasted sweet potatoes for ten yuan each, roasted until they're oozing with sugar. Eating one warms you up from head to toe. A stroll around takes a little over an hour, and you're not tired at all, plus you get to see amazing scenery—much more interesting than staying at home.
热议Nankunshan Wyndham Hot Spring Hotel is a recommended place for friends to visit. It is a hot spring hotel with many hot spring pools and children's play facilities both indoors and outdoors. The environment is also very good and clean. The suspended infinity pool on the tenth floor is worth recommending.

_We***81The suspended swimming pool is unique, the lifeguards are professional, and the reviews are enthusiastic
M24***88This is my third time to revisit Xiangxibao. Xiangxibao has changed a lot in recent years. There are more places decorated as old houses that can be visited, where you can learn about the living conditions of the people in the past. There is also a very classical bookstore. Recently, in order to welcome the Spring Festival of the Year of the Snake, some Spring Festival decorations have been arranged, which is very festive. The villagers nearby are still as simple as ever. I like to watch the yuba being made on the spot and then buy a bag to take home.
梦中芭蕉雨We spent a whole day at Zhuhai Chimelong Ocean Kingdom, and the venue was bigger than I expected. The sea lion theater was the first surprise. It wasn't just about the animals performing actions; it was a small theater built with colorful cartoon boats and a castle. Trainers in red uniforms guided the animals from the poolside, and the sea lions came up from the water to interact with the audience, with explanations interspersed throughout. The kids were completely engrossed. We spent the most time at the penguin exhibit. Looking through a whole glass wall, the water surface featured simulated ice and snow rock formations, and the penguins swam incredibly fast underwater, weaving in and out of the glass. We could see their black backs and white bellies as they flipped over, just like in documentaries. There were also informational panels inside explaining the penguins' habitats and habits. The underwater viewing window in the large display tank was also stunning. The water was a vibrant turquoise, and looking up, you could see the ripples reflecting the light. The curved frame encircled the area, and standing in front of it, you felt a sense of quietude. The other fish tanks were well-lit, and the schools of fish swimming by created silhouettes. There are also outdoor exhibits for tortoises and giant tortoises. A large one lies on the grass, its shell's markings as clear as tree rings, next to old tree roots—it feels more vibrant than if you were looking through glass. A day's worth of activity is just right, and the indoor exhibits offer plenty of shade. It's recommended to check the schedule at the theater first to make sure you know your showtimes. Allow ample time for the penguin exhibit and the underwater display; don't rush.
