🌿Hefei 48-Hour Escape: A Healing Remedy Hidden in the Mountains of Southern Anhui✨ When the office air conditioning drafts bring fatigue into your collar, and the honking on the commute pierces your nerves repeatedly❗️I finally hit the gas pedal towards Southern Anhui after the Friday work bell rang🚗. A two-and-a-half-hour drive left the concrete jungle behind—☁️the mountain mist of Qinglong Township in Ningguo awaited at the entrance to Shujia Beach. 🏡A Courtyard at the Foot of the Mountain: Living Life Like a Painting Nestled in the folds of the mountains, the small courtyard between the woods and water has no ostentatious gate, just a wooden fence enclosing a lush green lawn that connects directly to the distant indigo mountains. The moment you push open the door, all your vacation fantasies take shape: bamboo shadows sway on white walls, mountain breezes carry the scent of grass and trees through the halls, and even the swing in the yard is wrapped in the warmth of sunlight. The most delightful feature here is the ingenious "framed views"—whether it's the floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room or the flower windows in the corridor, each frames a dynamic landscape painting. In the afternoon, when clouds rise, the mountain peaks are veiled in light gauze, and the dark green bamboo sea ripples in the wind; in the evening, as the mist clears, the sunset dyes the mountains golden-red, and even the returning birds become embellishments in the painting. A 270° Mountain View Room: Waking Up with the Morning Mist When choosing a room, I didn't hesitate to book "Xicui"—no one can resist the awe-inspiring 270° panoramic glass windows. Mornings are awakened by light—the mountain mist drifts over the window sill, softening the sunlight into gentle spots that fall on the 1.5-meter double bed. Sitting up wrapped in a quilt, you can see the sea of clouds flowing through the valleys, even your breathing slows down. The room has no unnecessary decorations: a wooden wardrobe, a rattan rocking chair, and a tatami tea table—all exuding harmony with nature. The bathroom is designed with separate wet and dry areas, and while washing up, you can see the bamboo shadows outside the window; the rocking chair by the floor-to-ceiling window became my exclusive corner. The Tingxi Orchid tea gifted by the host unfurls in the cup, its clear and refreshing taste accompanying the ever-changing clouds outside, making time slip away unnoticed. The Communal Area: A Blend of Mountain Joy and Human Warmth If you're traveling with a group, the large lawn in the courtyard can accommodate all the merriment. Children chase butterflies on the grass, while team-building partners set up barbecue grills. The sound of oil dripping onto the coals mixes with laughter, echoing throughout the valley. The mountain-view swing always attracts someone to pause; the wind pushes the swing gently, creating picture-perfect moments that need no embellishment. As night falls and the bustle subsides, the highlight of mountain life is gathering around the fire for tea. Oranges and rice cakes roast over the coals, their aromas mingling with the tea's fragrance, drifting into the night sky. Looking up, you're greeted by a star-filled sky. For those seeking other pleasures, the laughter from the game room or the casual chats at the tea table embody the unique relaxation of mountain life. It was only upon leaving that I understood this 48-hour escape was never about checking off the scenic spots of Xijin Yedu, but about rediscovering myself in the mountain mist. As the car re-entered Hefei's traffic, it felt like my pockets still carried the mountain breeze and tea fragrance—turns out, healing is simply a spontaneous retreat to the mountains.
