PPierrebjPerfect stay in the clouds resort.
We spent five nights here. I am living in Chiba for 18 years. This is the best stay in hotel since I am here. The village is touristic, but authentic and quiet in night. It’s a mix of ancient village, water, nature. The dream China.
The resort is perfectly located on the side of the lake. The common parts are wonderful, from the term, the garden, the courtyards. You can feel the soul of the country here, built by multiple generations.
The rooms are traditional but beautiful and extremely well equipped with huge shower, Japanese toilets, huge bathtub.
There is 3 courtyards, all original and authentic. You feel the heat of history.
The restaurant is the best of the city, for reasonable prices and tasty and comfortable settings.
On the top of it, very dedicated staff, trying their best to make us happy, nice breakfast, nice afternoon tea, tea ceremony… we can be only grateful to have the pleasure to stay here.
Fast train station is just ten minutes away…
LLipingismThis has to be the highlight of this trip to China.
Tachuan is almost a complete resort by itself. We had tea by the creek, main meals overlooking a gorgeous paddy field, read near a stream. There are little activity areas dotted around the resort where you can experience dressing in hanfu, practise the zither, as well as play chess or practise your calligraphy.
The staff has to be the best I encountered this whole travel, they went over and above what they needed to do, including bringing us on a hike to the nearby National Park. The National Park is a nice area to spend a morning at.
Ducks and rabbits wander freely in the estate, and there are 2 adorable cats.
There is free transport to or from Hong Cun, which is a Unesco village. Personally, I should have just explored Hong Cun for a afternoon and still return to stay another night at Ta Chuan, instead of spending one night at Hong Cun
ゲゲストWe really enjoyed our stay here. Gorgeous place and in a perfect location. The people were really kind and friendly. They helped us with our bags from the entrance as cars are not allowed in the scenic area. Breakfast is huge and delicious (Chinese). We already miss xiaohei, the resident dog there. Definitely going to stay here again.
