Stay in the bamboo sea and clear your mind in the mountains🍃 Just got back from Deqing, Huzhou, Moganshan, and I feel so calm. No need to rush to attractions or watch the clock. Every day was just listening to the wind in the bamboo forest and taking it slow—a truly healing short getaway. I booked a homestay halfway up the mountain in the bamboo sea. The moment I opened the door, I was captivated by the vast bamboo forest outside the window. The room features a floor-to-ceiling glass window, and lying in bed, you can see the bamboo shadows swaying in the breeze. The room is spacious, and the bedding is soft and thick, making it very relaxing to lie down. The bathroom has a dry/wet separation, the toiletries are high quality, and there is a small table and chairs on the balcony where you can sit, drink tea, and watch the clouds drift over the mountains. The homestay's public courtyard is filled with greenery. Sitting in the yard in the evening, all you hear is the rustling of the wind through the bamboo leaves. The homestay has its own mountain stream and shallow beach🌿 No need to travel to distant scenic spots; you can play in the water right in front of the homestay. Stepping into the cool stream, watching the sunlight filter through the bamboo leaves onto the water. With the sound of the babbling water and the embrace of the bamboo forest, it's so quiet that all your worries just fade away. The homestay's breakfast is simple and heartwarming. White porridge, farm eggs, handmade steamed buns, and a small dish of local pickled bamboo shoots—light and comforting. For dinner, we had farm-style dishes at the homestay restaurant. The free-range chicken soup was very fragrant, and the stir-fried wild mountain vegetables were fresh and tender. The ingredients were all delivered by local farmers, and the taste was authentic and down-to-earth. In my free time, I went down to Yucun at the foot of the mountain. The streets are flat and easy to walk, no mountain climbing required. There are creative shops converted from old factories, and the sycamore trees shade the streets. Occasionally, the wind blows down yellow leaves, creating a quiet and atmospheric vibe. A few small tips for taking photos. The light is softest in the early morning and at dusk, so photos won't be harsh. The homestay balcony, the streamside, and the old streets of Yucun are all great for photos. Choose simple, solid-colored clothing, which fits perfectly with the vast green bamboo sea. If you are tired of the city hustle and bustle and want to find a quiet place to take a break, Moganshan is worth a visit. No need to pack your itinerary; just sit in the mountains and forests, daydream, feel the wind and the greenery, and recharge yourself.
