Hidden in Wenjiang, the treasure courtyard "Yang Muzi Courtyard"

Wenjiang harbors a gem reminiscent of "Little Lijiang"—Yang Muzi Courtyard, which is nothing short of an urban oasis for stress relief. Enclosed by blue-tiled roofs and wooden railings, this secluded space features babbling streams winding around stone steps and vines climbing over a weathered wooden building. By day, sit in the open-air booth with a hand-brewed coffee, watching sunlight filter through bougainvillea leaves to dance on the table—it’s easy to feel transported to Lijiang’s alleyways, where even the air carries a leisurely vibe. As night falls, warm yellow lanterns flicker to life, and with the first strum of the band’s guitar, the courtyard awakens. Sip chilled craft beer to the mellow tunes of folk singers, or raise a glass to fiery hotpot skewers when rock rhythms kick in. The mingling of lively atmosphere and evening breeze effortlessly blows away the week’s fatigue. Whether gathering friends on weekends or sneaking away for solitude on weekdays, this spot delivers—comforting food, healing music, and poetic moments without the long journey. Calling it the ultimate recharge destination? Not an exaggeration.
