Living in the Light and Shadow Poetry of the Metasequoia Forest | This Homestay in Liangzhu is So Healing!

Hey everyone! Recently discovered a magical homestay—Wutaxinshe·Liangzhu Branch—that literally "rescued" me from the concrete jungle and dropped me into a poetic metasequoia forest! I must rave about this place! Upon arriving at the northern part of Liangzhu, I was speechless—vast metasequoia forests stretched like green clouds, rustling in the wind. The homestay is nestled in this greenery, with its soft, earthy-toned exterior that feels nothing like the stiff decor of traditional lodgings. Instead, it seems like a house that "grew" naturally from the land, radiating comfort at first sight. The Courtyard King Room (50㎡) is absolutely divine! Step out into a private courtyard where mornings begin with birdsong, and the shadows of metasequoia trees dance on the walls, glowing emerald. In the afternoon, just sit back in a chair and watch clouds drift past the treetops—time slows to half-speed here. The mattress is perfectly firm, lulling even a light sleeper like me into deep slumber! The communal spaces are a highlight! The bamboo-lit dining area is stunning—rough stone walls paired with floor-to-ceiling windows, topped with a woven bamboo ceiling. Sunlight filters through, casting golden speckles on the table, making every meal taste better! The Wushe Tea Space is even more enchanting, with wooden tables and vintage tea jars. Sip tea and daydream as the blend of incense and tea aromas softens your soul. For the active souls, try pickleball in the woods, where every step is fragrant with greenery. Families with kids will love the Loft Family Room—kids can play downstairs while adults relax with tea upstairs, creating a lively yet harmonious vibe. Two days here taught me what "boundless relaxation" truly means—no KPIs, no traffic, just breaths filled with the scent of metasequoias. Mornings begin with nature’s wake-up call, nights end with cricket lullabies, and even dreams turn green. If you need a place to "catch your breath," trust me—head straight to Wutaxinshe·Liangzhu Branch and surrender your time to the wind, the trees, and yourself. (P.S. The rooms are incredibly photogenic! Wear light-colored dresses for magazine-worthy shots~)
