Late April, Embark on a Secluded Journey to Guoyun Mountain Residence on Sanshan Island

. After being trapped in the hustle and bustle of the magical city for too long, one always yearns for a pure land where the soul can rest. Upon hearing that Guoyun Mountain Residence also has a guesthouse on Sanshan Island in Taihu Lake, I quickly packed my bags and set off for this rendezvous with nature~ The island isn't large, but it possesses a tranquility and leisurely atmosphere hard to find elsewhere. There are no crowds of tourists here, and the two-day, one-night stay felt like being temporarily isolated from the world, completely unwinding. About the trip: 🚗 Driving from Shanghai to Changqi Pier on Dongshan Island takes two hours (leave your car in the parking lot 🅿️ overnight) P4 🚢 Large ferry (departing on the hour, 20 minutes to reach Xianqi Pier on Sanshan Island) 📜 The guesthouse provides shuttle service to and from the pier 🍽️ Dining is available at the guesthouse, reserve in the group chat one day in advance (the white fish is tender and fresh) 🚲 You can rent electric scooters or bicycles for transportation on the island 💰 Island entrance ticket 🎫 plus ferry ticket → 78+20/person 🐶 Pet-friendly Sanshan Island truly feels like being away from it all, and Guoyun Mountain Residence's location exclusively enjoys the most beautiful lakefront view~ Have an iced coffee ☕ at the guesthouse's coffee bar, sit on the swing or lounge chair to gaze at the lake and daydream—how delightful~ Life on the island moves slowly, with people either leisurely fishing by the lake or chatting casually in courtyards. As the sun sets, its glow shimmers on the lake's surface, and the entire Sanshan Island is bathed in a pink-purple hue, making one immersed in this gentle moment, reluctant to leave~ The weekend of two days and one night seemed so brief amidst the laughter and joy~ After enjoying Suzhou-style noodles 🍜 in the first-floor courtyard, it was time to return~ Thank you to Guoyun Mountain Residence for the wonderful memories, looking forward to our next encounter.
