Beijing Guanshe Xishan Must-Visit

Attention all city escape enthusiasts! This weekend I discovered a hidden gem in Beijing's suburbs - Beijing Guanshe Xishan Homestay 🏡 Nestled at the foot of the Western Hills, this homestay is perfect for a weekend getaway! Just a 40-minute drive from downtown, it's conveniently located near Fragrant Hills Park and Phoenix Ridge Scenic Area. 【Room Features】 I stayed in their 270-degree floor-to-ceiling window room: ✨Wake up to sunrise views right from bed ✨Oversized bathtub facing the valley ✨Private balcony with BBQ equipment (bring your own ingredients~) 【Thoughtful Services】 1. Welcome gift: Xishan Apple Mystery Box (apples picked from the backyard orchard) 2. Breakfast features authentic Jingxi farmer's set - millet porridge with free-range eggs is amazing! 3. Evening delivery of warm hawthorn drink for better sleep 【Nearby Activities】 • 10-minute walk to Xishan Forest Park • 5-minute drive to famous Xiangshan Temple • Must-try nearby strawberry picking farms (greenhouses are wonderfully warm in winter) 【Photo Tips】 Best spot: in front of floor-to-ceiling windows at sunrise/sunset for silhouettes; wear neutral linen outfits. 【Booking Advice】 1. Book at least 2 weeks ahead for weekends 2. Weekday stays are 40% cheaper during peak season 3. Request electric blankets in winter (nights get chilly!) My biggest takeaway: the most restful sleep! Waking naturally to birdsong every morning. For urbanites craving a quick escape, this homestay is absolutely worth visiting~
