This time, I chose to stay at the Xichang Impression Hotel, which boasts a fantastic location right next to the high-speed rail station, convenient transportation, and a bustling night market nearby, brimming with the vibrant atmosphere of life. 🎇 After checking in and unpacking, I began planning my trip to Yuegu Winery.

Finally arriving at Yuegu Winery, it felt like I'd been transported to a romantic French estate. With its expansive lawns, lush vineyards, and exquisite French-style buildings scattered throughout, every garden and landscape was captivatingly beautiful. 🌳 Strolling along the vineyard viewing corridor, the winding vines overhead contrasted beautifully with the blue sky, creating a stunning photo opp. Walking to the rose garden and fountain, rose bushes frame the outdoor dining area, and the gurgling water whispers a romantic story. Sit back, order a glass of wine, and relax and unwind with a hint of intoxication. 🍷 The winery is not only beautiful, but also offers a fascinating insight into wine culture. In the tasting room, I sampled over 80 varieties of red wine, each one boasting a unique flavor, a perfect fusion of time and grapes. If you're hungry, don't miss the Thai seafood hot pot or authentic French cuisine. Fresh ingredients and exquisite presentation will delight your taste buds. 🍽 From the Xichang Impression Hotel to the Moon Valley Winery, the journey was a journey from the bustle of the city to the tranquility of the countryside, from the mundane to the romantic.
