Hidden in the green mountains of Emei, soak in a private hot spring under the starry river
If the mist of Mount Emei is nature’s poetic gift, then the Yunshang Private Hot Spring・Petrichor Mountain View Leisure Resort nestled halfway up the mountain is the gentle haven that turns this poetry into a place to dwell. This stay completely overturned my imagination of a "guesthouse" — it’s not just a place to rest, but an immersive mountain healing journey!
Open the door to see the mountains, fall into a dreamlike green wilderness
Winding up the mountain road, after the last turn, the building in pure white and natural wood tones appears faintly among the green mountain shadows. Opening the bamboo-woven door of the guesthouse, you are instantly embraced by a courtyard full of blooming flowers: spring azaleas bloom passionately, summer hydrangeas fill the branches, and even wild daisies peek through the stair cracks, as if the mountains are playing hide-and-seek with you.
Standing on the viewing terrace, the layered contours of Mount Emei unfold before your eyes. In the early morning, mist slowly rises from the valley, winding around treetops, with the temple eaves faintly visible in the distance; at dusk, the sunset dyes the entire forest honey-colored, and every snapshot feels like a cinematic masterpiece. Even more surprising is the room design, with panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows framing the mountain scenery like a giant screen, allowing you to "own" the entire wilderness while lying in bed, breathing in the fresh sweetness of the greenery.
A private hot spring pool to soak away all your fatigue
If the "soul" of the guesthouse is anything, it must be the private hot spring! Each room comes with its own independent hot spring pool, with spring water drawn from underground rock layers, rich in sulfur and minerals, kept at the perfect temperature of 38-42°C. The moment you soak in, warmth spreads from your toes to your head, pores slowly relax with the rising steam, as if even your bones are melting soft. After soaking, your skin feels silky smooth, like a natural SPA, no need for skincare products at all~
As night falls, light scented candles, pour a cup of the guesthouse’s special fruit and flower tea, listen to the insects chirping in the mountains, and look up to see the dazzling Milky Way — this kind of "heaven on earth" experience must be what a fairy’s life feels like!
Detail lovers rejoice, healing vibes hidden in every corner
Besides the beautiful scenery and private hot springs, the guesthouse’s attention to detail is truly praiseworthy. The bedding uses high-thread-count cotton, soft as if wrapped in clouds, paired with memory foam mattresses for a restful night’s sleep; toiletries are a custom plant essential oil series, and even the hairdryer is the same model as Dyson’s; breakfast is full of sincerity with freshly ground soy milk, handmade buns, local wild vegetable pancakes, seasonal fruit platters... so abundant you’ll need support to stand!
The most touching is the attentive service from the housekeeper: warm ginger tea upon check-in, a mugwort eye mask for better sleep before bed, and a handmade Mount Emei mist tea gift upon departure. This feeling of being "pampered like a child" makes you want to come back N times!
If you’re tired of the city’s noise, why not stay a few days at Yunshang Private Hot Spring, wake up to birdsong, soak under the starry sky, and let the gentleness of the mountains heal all your fatigue~ 🌟
