Help! I discovered a hidden gem homestay nestled in the landscapes of southern Anhui!

Surrounded by tea mountains + Hui-style courtyard + instant return after rafting! The ultimate summer waterplay base! 🔥 📍 Location so perfect it'll make you cry! Water lovers rejoice! Right next to the Qinglongtan Rafting drop-off point! Soaked from head to toe after the rubber boat ride? No worries! Just walk two steps back to the homestay for a shower! 🛁 Hot water washes away fatigue, change into dry clothes while others are still waiting for shuttle buses (you know what I mean!). Only 5km from Shui Mo Tingxi Scenic Area - just a quick drive away! 👌 🏡 Environment: Stay in a historic Huizhou residence amid tea mountains Wake up to tea mountain views! 🌱 The entire tea plantation on the back mountain belongs to the owner! The air is filled with fresh tea fragrance, even your hair will smell amazing! Mornings begin with birdsong and tea aroma - pure therapy! A thousand-year-old soapberry tree guards the courtyard! 🌳 The owner says the towering tree at the center has millennium-old history (we didn't dare ask, but its presence is undeniable!). Drinking tea or playing chess under it feels like time travel! White walls with black tiles, meticulously renovated! The revived old residence preserves charming wooden lofts and traditional mortise-tenon structures. New additions maintain authentic Hui-style architecture - 📸 every shot looks like an ink painting! The tea room comes with guzheng and chess sets - artsy vibes perfected! 🍵 Soul-stirring experience: The owner's premium private tea collection! Here's the highlight! The owner is a tea merchant! 🃏 Unlimited supply of Jing County's famous "Ti Kui" tea! Free tasting upon check-in! Clear liquor, high fragrance, and incredible aftertaste! Couldn't resist buying two boxes as souvenirs before leaving! (Heard you can experience tea picking in spring!) 🚣‍♀️ Nearby water activities guide (personally tested super close!) 1️⃣ 【Qinglongtan Scenic Area】🚣‍♂️ Rafting drop-off point is right at the homestay entrance! Off-road beach vehicles are thrilling - getting splashed with mud will have you laughing hysterically! (Just shower immediately hhh) 2️⃣ 【Shui Mo Tingxi Scenic Area】🌉 Must-try stream trekking! Crystal-clear water flows over rocks - refreshing to the core! Also features the "Southern Anhui Plank Road" glass walkway - daredevils go for it! The rafting is fantastic too! 3️⃣ 【Moon Bay】🌙 Leisurely bamboo rafting or exciting rubber boat options! The viral fish-scale dam is Instagram gold 📸, with blue skies and gurgling water - guaranteed center stage on social media! ✨ Staying here is pure bliss! Got soaked from waterplay? 5-minute recovery unlocked! Tea mountain courtyard offers perfect seclusion without isolation! Super friendly owner provides tea knowledge + complete travel tips! New and spotless facilities with ample hot water (crucial after water activities!) 🏡 Homestay: Flower Villa·Jing County One Tree Tea Garden Boutique Homestay 📍 Location: Jing County, next to Qinglongtan Rafting drop-off point (pinpoint accuracy!) 💡 Tips: Day 1: Visit Qinglongtan + Shui Mo Tingxi (close!), stay at One Tree Tea Garden; Day 2: Explore Moon Bay. Pack swimsuits, water shoes, and SUNSCREEN! SUNSCREEN! SUNSCREEN! The owner's tea is absolutely worth bringing home!
