🏠 Guoyun Mountain Residence·Xingxiu Gaotian in Quzhou As a pioneer in the homestay industry, Guoyun Mountain Residence has uncovered one after another secluded getaway in Zhejiang. From the breathtaking sea of clouds over terraced fields to the shimmering shores of Taihu Lake, it now brings us to this hidden paradise nestled deep in an ancient mountain village. Here lies a Jiangnan ancient village more secluded than Songyang, with skies as clear as the Tibetan Plateau and stargazing conditions to match... This is Gaotiankeng, located in the heart of Changhong Township, Kaihua County, Quzhou. Perched on a mountain nearly 700 meters high, surrounded by pristine landscapes and home to just over a dozen households, it’s a natural escape from the world. The sky here is as crystal-clear as the Tibetan Plateau, earning it the title of "China’s Most Beautiful Ancient Starry Sky Village." With thin clouds, encircling mountains, and almost zero light pollution (Bortle Scale Class 2), Gaotiankeng is the best stargazing sanctuary in East China and one of only six designated "Chinese Dark Sky Reserves" nationwide. Rarely disturbed by urban noise, the villagers grow vegetables and raise clear-water fish, living almost entirely self-sufficiently—a real-life Peach Blossom Spring as described by Tao Yuanming. Stay at Guoyun Mountain Residence, live among the villagers, wake up to breathe in the mountain air, and experience a fairy-tale life~ Kaihua is now accessible by high-speed rail: just 0.5h from Quzhou and about 3h from Hangzhou. A weekend getaway to this secluded paradise is all you need. ✔️ The quality of Guoyun Mountain Residence speaks for itself—regulars know its homestays meet hotel-star standards. This new location is ultra-secluded with pristine surroundings, dubbed a "natural oxygen bar" and "China’s most beautiful ancient starry sky village," perfect for those seeking an urban escape.
