Nestled in the core of Nuodeng Ancient Village, Dali, Yunnan, lies a high-end guesthouse that blends traditional charm with modern comfort —— Gujing Jianshan (Ancient Well & Viewing Mountains). Its five themed guest rooms, named "Ancient," "Well," "View," "Mountain," and "Viewing Mountains," each hide distinct landscapes and embody every facet of a slow-paced life. Here, you can lean against the courtyard’s光影 (dappled sunlight), soak up the sun, brew a pot of tea, listen to the wind rustling the leaves, and watch clouds drift leisurely... Or wander through the ancient alleys, savoring the tranquility and warmth of this millennium-old village.
Gujing Jianshan is more than just a stopover; it’s an invitation to slow down and embrace life as it should be. May this journey leave you with peaceful, fulfilling, and unforgettable memories.
"I am a heavy fan of treasure hotels (homestays). I usually search Xiaohongshu first to learn about excellent hotels in unknown destinations. Of course, I will also use my favorite hotels as travel destinations when I am bored. Then search for more information on the booking platform. Even so, you have to go to the hotel to see the room before confirming whether to stay, even if it is only for one day (I don’t have such trouble with other things). In Nuodeng, braving the high temperature of 32 degrees, climbing to a height where luggage usually needs to be transported by Rome, I saw Gujing Banshan. After looking at a few rooms under the guidance of the gentle manager, I immediately decided to stay. In fact, when I saw the first room, I decided to stay. I am not saying that other homestays are not good, but Gujing Jianshan’s design concept and detail handling are extremely attentive. The two days of staying have repeatedly confirmed my initial feelings, serious. Sincere. Professional. The window screens, curtains, linen bedding and slippers are all-Malaysian and soft without losing texture. The carefully selected drinks and snacks in the mini bar make people happy. The water supply is large and sufficient, and the air-conditioning can quickly adjust the cold and hot air, so you can rest assured. The breakfast is also scientifically nutritious, with rice noodles made of nuts and dairy products. Although it is not luxurious, it is healthy and green. There are many details, so you can slowly experience it... I hope that friends who go to Nuodeng will be lucky enough to stay in this inn like me."
