Hidden Gem The last stop on this trip brought us to Songtsam Stone Moon Valley Lodge, a stunningly beautiful, secluded hotel nestled atop a mountain deep in the wilderness. ⭐️Songtsam truly knows how to choose a location and understands modern aesthetics. Located in Fugong, Yunnan, Stone Moon Valley Lodge boasts a village-like layout built into the mountainside, perched above the sea of clouds and on the edge of a cliff. It's the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. Stepping onto the lobby's terrace, a breathtaking panorama unfolds before you, a scene that perfectly aligns with my aesthetic sensibilities. ⭐️The hotel comprises several buildings cascading down the mountainside. The main building, situated at the highest point, has four floors. The top floor houses the lobby and lounge, while the floor below features a spa, a multi-purpose hall, and a gym. Imagine the experience of running while facing the distant mountains and the sea of clouds. The restaurant, where breakfast and afternoon tea are served, occupies the next floor down. Finally, the ground floor houses a bar and opens onto a spacious terrace with a stunning infinity pool. The pool's surface reflects the distant mountain scenery. Each floor also offers outdoor terraces, allowing guests to fully immerse themselves in the breathtaking views. ⭐️Every guest room offers spectacular views of the vast canyon and distant mountains, and each room has a balcony. Waking up in the morning, sitting on the balcony, sipping freshly brewed coffee, and watching the ever-changing sea of clouds, I experienced true relaxation. The open-plan bathrooms are designed to ensure you can enjoy the outside scenery at all times. ⭐️Speaking of the sea of clouds, it's undoubtedly the highlight of this hotel. Perched on the mountaintop, overlooking the vast canyon and the mountains beyond, the scenery changes constantly throughout the day. On clear days, the views stretch far into the distance, while other times, the mountains are shrouded in mist and fog. You could spend an entire day here just watching the clouds drift by. The cloud formations change rapidly, and the most beautiful sight is the sea of clouds itself—when the mist settles below the mountainside, leaving you and the opposite mountains clearly visible, creating a sense of splendid isolation. ⭐️The infinity pool is another breathtaking feature. Facing the distant mountains, it reflects the colors of the sky, which shift throughout the day. The blue hour at dusk is particularly stunning. I finally understood the meaning of "Yunnan," the south of the colorful clouds.

When taking photos, I didn't realize how unforgettable some scenes were. But when I got home and looked through my phone out of boredom, I saw these moments that had become memories and realized their uniqueness and irreplaceability. There might not be another chance to visit this place again, or if I do, things might have changed. The sincere faces in these landscapes might be a once-in-a-lifetime encounter. Photos compensate for the fading of memories. Regret and helplessness are part of life. When I learned to observe calmly, I also found that they each have their own value.

From any room in the hotel looking north, you can see a perpetual bright moon hanging in the distant mountains, which is the sacred 'Stone Moon' in the hearts of the Lisu people. Songzan Stone Moon Mountain Residence is a typical mountain architecture, with a settlement-style layout that follows the mountain's shape, arranged in an orderly fashion. Staying at Songzan Stone Moon Mountain Residence is like hiding in a secluded sanctuary in the canyon, where the weariness of the journey is washed away. Songzan Stone Moon Mountain Residence has a total of 55 guest rooms, including superior rooms, deluxe rooms, two-bedroom deluxe suites, and four-bedroom deluxe suites, all facing the Nujiang Grand Canyon.

From Shiyueliang to Bingzhongluo. Fortunately, the beautiful Nujiang Highway, which is the Nujiang section of the new National Highway 219, connects Bingzhongluo with the upstream and downstream destinations of the river. The road to Bingzhongluo has never been so smooth. Starting from Baoshan, a major town in western Yunnan, and heading upstream along the Nujiang Grand Canyon, the Gaoligong Mountains that accompany you all the way become increasingly magnificent. Awakening from the amazement of the 'high mountains and deep valleys,' a moon that will never set has already risen on the horizon—Shiyueliang Viewing Platform, a marble perforation on the cliff. It stands guard at an altitude of more than 3,300 meters in the Gaoligong Mountains, looming in the mist, waxing and waning with the distance. Shiyueliang is also a sacred place for the main ethnic group of Nujiang, the Lisu people. They believe that during the ancient great flood, their ancestors drew their bows and shot the Shiyueliang from the top of the mountains, causing the flood to recede. Since then, the Lisu people have had a home to settle down, and later generations respectfully call Shiyueliang the 'Root of the Lisu.' Regardless of the truth of such a Genesis-like legend, the majestic Gaoligong Mountains are indeed a sanctuary for countless living beings. In the many days of exploring Shiyueliang, you can follow Songtsam into the hidden Yapin Nature Reserve, strolling through the primeval forests of the Gaoligong Mountains. Yapin, meaning 'cliff' in Lisu language, is rarely visited, mysterious, and serene, with 'four seasons in one mountain, different weather every ten miles.' While encountering the four seasons of Nujiang, countless rare flora and fauna await your discovery. You can also visit Laomudeng, a Nu village. Laomudeng means 'a place people like to come' in Nu language. If you happen to be there on a Sunday, you can enter the church to listen to the locals' hymns. The four-part harmony, akin to the sound of nature, drifts through the valley, and newcomers to Nujiang are invariably moved by these devout and beautiful hymns. Continuing along the beautiful highway, the Nujiang River rushes before you. After a quiet and elegant big bend, the Nujiang River is no longer 'angry.' When a vast rice field appears in front of you, you have arrived at Songtsam Bingzhongluo Lodge. You can use the lodge as a starting point to continue northward, exploring the hidden depths of Bingzhongluo.

Build roads where there are no roads, fill land where there is no land. I admire Songtsan’s attitude towards running a hotel! There were mudslides all along the way, and more than a dozen places were washed away. I really like Songtsan Hotel, which is able to build a beautiful hotel under such conditions and show beautiful scenery to customers. transportation! ️Except the rainy season, other seasons are very suitable. It is recommended that friends who drive themselves park their car at the foot of the mountain and ask the hotel to pick them up. Only the road to the hotel is difficult to drive. There is no problem in other seasons, but it does not affect customers' accommodation. environment! ️There is a hiking trail in front of the Stone Moon, which is very suitable for hikers to come and play, and also suitable for family activities in the hotel~ Summary: It is very rare in China to have such a good environment in the mountains. I suggest that you must go and experience it! What Songzan makes is really attentive and worth learning. (No advertising content, just my opinion)

Yunnan's last secret realm, I have found the answer. Nestled in the embrace of the Biluo Snow Mountain, at an altitude of 1760 meters, isolated from the world, this is the Songzan Stone Moon Mountain Lodge. Staying at the Songzan Moon Mountain Lodge with friends, as you open the door, the magnificent spring view of the Nujiang Gorge is fully in sight. For photography enthusiasts, every spot here is an excellent location for shooting; sea of clouds, sunrise, mountains and rivers, every casual snap is a masterpiece. There are several tourist attractions around the hotel, such as the Stone Moon Viewing Platform, Laomudeng Village, Zhiziluo, and Moon Mountain.

Some landscapes are destined to be reached through arduous treks and long journeys. I would never have come to Nujiang Lisu Autonomous Prefecture if it weren't for Songzan. Nestled between canyons and secluded from the hustle and bustle, perched atop cliffs with the Nu River at its feet, the Songzan Stone Moon Mountain Residence is the latest in the Songzan series of hotels I've unlocked after the Nanga Bawa Mountain Residence. To get to the hotel, I recommend flying directly to Baoshan Airport from other regions and arranging a hotel transfer. Those who drive themselves from Tibet and like the Songzan brand can consider staying for a day. Songzan - Stone Moon - Mountain Residence. Upon arrival, the staff invites you to sit down and welcomes you with papaya honey water, biscuits, and a warm towel. The holiday atmosphere is strong, and in addition to the check-in area, the lobby has a reception area and a boutique shop with many carefully selected items. I recommend the essential oil soap, geranium essential oil soap, with a very healthy ingredient list consisting of geranium oil, coconut oil, and olive oil, which doesn't dry out the skin when used for washing the face or bathing. The Most Beautiful Cloud-Top Hideaway Hotel, where the houses are built on the cliffs, offers a stunning visual effect. The ecological vegetation is very good, and the climate is also suitable for living. The hotel has an infinity pool. In the morning, the entire hotel is usually shrouded in clouds. When the weather is good, sitting outside reading, looking at the local village opposite, listening to the birds and smelling the faint scent of plants, every breath of air is very sweet. There are huge walnut trees. The distant Gaoligong Mountains. I stayed in a deluxe room with an area of 62 square meters, with a balcony view that is very direct, facing the Nu River and Stone Moon. Every Songzan guest room has a book called 'The Secret Door' on the desk. The room is equipped with a B&O Bluetooth speaker, the bedding is soft and comfortable, and there are two fans on the bed. The mineral water used is 5100, and a special goodnight drink is delivered during the night bed service, with rice wine on the first day and silver ear red dates wolfberry on the second day. The kettle used is Delonghi, the room fridge is free, and the tea bags are a co-branded version of Songzan and chali. The bathroom is very spacious, with double sinks and a large round bathtub, with a separate dry and wet area. The bath salt for soaking is Himalayan salt. The bath products are from the Thai brand Erb, and the soap is geranium essential oil soap, which I really like. The staff turns on the aromatherapy humidifier every day. There is a heating rod on the washstand, a small detail that guests like, so there's no need to worry about washed clothes not drying. At night, looking out from the room, the village outside twinkles like fireflies. If the weather is good, you can see the sky full of stars. The restaurant is on the second floor, and breakfast is also served here. You can order a la carte, and the dishes are consistently good in taste and presentation. The black truffle dumplings are delicious, the hand-grabbed rice is special, and the stinky tofu with cured meat is the most recommended dish, with the chef's understanding of it being spot-on. The desserts and ice cream are good, consistently performing well. The hotel has a SPA and wellness center on the third floor, and Songzan seems to be in deep cooperation with La Mer. The view from the spa room is good, but I feel the prices for facial and body SPA are a bit high. Staying at Songzan, each room comes with a double afternoon tea, which is served at the bar on the first floor. The overall experience is still very good, and there is room for improvement in service. Some staff members are very enthusiastic, and choosing this place is more about the scenery and environment.

hello, I am serena🌍 who is determined to live all over the world Received a tip that Songzan is having a trial run of their mountain residence at Shiyueliang Immediately rushed over from Dali by car🚗 This is the 6th Songzan hotel I have stayed at Brass, raw wood, and rock slices are familiar ingredients But there are more elements of the Lisu people in the details Rich color blocks and pastoral-style fabrics are traditional extensions I really like the contrasting woven baskets and fans in the room Immediately went to the lobby's 'Songzan Features' to shop👓 The color tone of the mountain residence is like a girl from Renoir's paintings Warm and delicate as jade under the sunlight, exquisite and elegant The slender infinity pool holds the sea of clouds and morning mist The entire hotel naturally integrates with the village The Gaoligong Mountains and the Biluo Snow Mountain stand tall and face each other The room faces the canyon directly, and you can quietly watch the clouds roll from the balcony The scenic bathtub is super big, the view while bathing is jio beautiful The distant Shiyueliang is really mysterious and unique 🌙 Super happy to encounter the Qilin batch manager who had guided me before at the hotel And Teacher Cili who I learned yoga with in Shangri-La🧘 Coming to Songzan feels like coming home💖 I will give a proper review of the hotel in the next article!!

My first experience at the Pine Praise Hotel left me with the following impressions: 1. The hotel's location truly offers an unbeatable view. Of course, getting there is not easy. 2. The service standard is high, warm yet respectful of personal boundaries. 3. During the Spring Festival, only set menus were available, which was a slight disappointment. However, the quality of the meals in the set menu sets high expectations for the regular meals. 4. The price is indeed a bit expensive.

Transportation Shiyue Mountain Residence is located in Chishadi Village, Nujiang, Yunnan. It took me about five hours to drive from Baoshan Airport to the hotel. All the way along the 218 National Road and parallel to the Nujiang River, passing through the Tiger Leaping Gorge scenic area, I felt the charm of the Nujiang River along the way. After leaving the national road and winding up the mountain for about 7 kilometers, I arrived at the Shiyue Mountain Residence at an altitude of 1750 meters. Hotel and Room The hotel is in the usual Songzan style, and the window view of each room is as beautiful as a painting. Staying in the room, you can see the Nujiang River and Shiyue, it's a pity that I didn't encounter the sea of clouds this time. If I could encounter the sea of clouds, it would definitely be like a fairyland. Food The most surprising thing this time is the restaurant's food. I enjoyed every meal, especially the lacquer oil chicken hot pot. The chicken soup is rich and delicious, the chicken is tender and not woody, and the vegetables are also very fresh and sweet. The hotel is also very thoughtful, displaying some commonly used local spices and food on a specially made table at the entrance of the restaurant. When I stopped to admire it, the restaurant staff came over and explained the name and use of each spice to me. I particularly liked the scent of a pepper root, and I shamelessly asked for one to put in my office to refresh myself. Service The Songzan family is still so lovely, everyone is very kind and simple, and they take good care of us. This time I especially want to thank the manager, Lao Kang, who would find us every day to chat and ask if we slept well and ate well. When we left, he specially prepared two boxes of sandwiches and snacks and fruits for us to take on the road back to Baoshan, which was really thoughtful.

On January 20, Songzan Stone Moon Mountain House began trial operation, the beauty of the canyon, hidden. Mr. Baima Duoji, the founder of Songzan, has come to Nujiang several times to choose the location for the hotel. In Mr. Baima Duoji's view, Songzan Stone Moon Mountain, as the first canyon hotel of Songzan, "stands above the sea of clouds, on the top of the cliff, far away from the hustle and bustle", will bring Songzan family members the ultimate canyon view and comfortable vacation experience. Looking north from any room in the hotel, you can see a never-setting bright moon hanging in the distant mountains, that is the sacred 'Stone Moon' in the hearts of the Lisu people.
