You must visit this guesthouse when you come to Yuntai Mountain, we chose a guesthouse called Yunlu Caotang for our company team building trip. The courtyard is small but the scenery is beautiful, and there are several super cute cats. Each room has an ancient charm, and there is a large tea hall in the leisure public area, which includes a KTV with a singing mahjong table and a tea and calligraphy table. I highly recommend the sister who runs the place for her cooking, it's super delicious because it's all authentic Henan flavors, just like the delicious home-cooked meals. The sister's handmade tomato noodles, chive dumplings, chicken stewed with mushrooms, cold beef with preserved eggs, corn soup, and stir-fried cured meat are all my favorites It tastes just like home! Since it's a company trip, I'm not sure about the meal charges, it's best to call ahead and ask before coming! In the evening, everyone had dinner and sang songs at the entrance of the guesthouse, it was very lively! The guesthouse is also about a 20-minute drive from the Yuntai Mountain scenic area.
