The design concept of Xiaoshi Mountain Residence draws from a modern interpretation of traditional Southern Shaanxi dwellings. The exterior preserves the local gray-tiled sloping roofs, while the walls are primarily made of natural stone, blending seamlessly with the surrounding mountains. Designers cleverly use floor-to-ceiling windows and open layouts to bring mountain views indoors, allowing guests to feel embraced by nature from every corner. The guest rooms embody the essence of mountain living, with furniture handcrafted from local aged wood that feels warm to the touch. Bedding is high-quality cotton and linen, ensuring comfortable sleep. Most delightfully, some rooms feature private hot spring pools fed by nearby natural springs, offering a unique experience of soaking while stargazing at night. Restaurant ingredients are mostly sourced from their own garden or neighboring farmers, with unquestionable freshness. The chef team excels at combining traditional Southern Shaanxi cooking methods with modern presentation, turning even a simple dish of stir-fried konjac with pickled vegetables into something extraordinary. Guests rave about specialties like walnut buns for breakfast, bamboo shoot stewed with free-range chicken for lunch, and Hanjiang fish hot pot in the evening. While modest in size, the residence's amenities reflect thoughtful attention to detail. The book bar houses an extensive collection on Southern Shaanxi culture; the tea room serves local specialty Ziyang Maojian tea; and the most popular feature is the infinity pool atop the mountain, where summer swimmers feel as if they're gliding through the mountains. Additionally, the guesthouse regularly organizes experiences such as plant dyeing and tea ceremonies, allowing guests to deeply connect with local culture. The surrounding environment is another major advantage of Xiaoshi Mountain Residence. The Xiangxi Cave, a Taoist sacred site with cool, tranquil interiors, is just a ten-minute walk away. Yinghu Lake, with its stunning scenery of mountains and water, is only a thirty-minute drive.
