Nestled at the Foot of Cangshan Mountain: A Hillside Hotel Where Time Slows Down

In Dali, the art of slowing down is a must—and our stay at "Mutian Yangshan" at the base of Cangshan Mountain completely captivated us! Tucked away in a traditional Bai ethnic courtyard beneath Sanyang Peak, this hotel features 24 rooms named after solar terms—from "Spring Equinox Blooms" to "Great Cold Snowscape." Two days here feel like a season. Step outside to cobblestone paths and the charm of heritage architecture, while expansive communal spaces mimic a miniature forest: infinity pool, thatched-roof hot springs, and mountain-view gardens make every stroll picture-perfect. Rooms are sunlit glass sanctuaries with terraces for sipping tea amid Cangshan’s autumn hues. The beds boast InterContinental-grade mattresses and five pillow firmness options for instant deep sleep. The highlight? A horse-drawn carriage ride through serene stone lanes to the courtyard, where the outside world fades away. Dining dazzles: choose breakfast options like beef rice noodles, wontons, or congee; savor custom healthy dinners in the ivy-clad restaurant; or relish afternoon tea with mountain breezes—pure romance. For fun, dress in period costumes for lawn murder mysteries, fully embracing the "mountain dweller" life. Conveniently located: 6km to Panxi S-Bend, 8km to Dali Ancient Town, with everything just a 10-minute drive away. Verdict: To lose track of time in Dali, this hillside retreat is a must! 📍Address: No. 13, Zhongyin Village, Yinqiao Town, Dali 💰Price: 800+ per person (unbeatable value!) 🏨Hotel: Mutian Yangshan · Hillside Hotel, Dali
