[2024 Deqin Stay] Travel Guide for Jixiashan Meili Sunyata Hotel (Updated Nov)
My favorite hotel of the trip!
Jixiashan Meili | As beautiful as Meili Snow Mountain, worth staying at again and again
My favorite hotel of the trip. Although I didn't see the golden sunrise on the snow mountain due to the weather, this hotel is worth flying over to stay at. Due to limited time, I arranged to stay at Yuyu in Yubeng the next day, and only stayed at Jixiashan Meili for one night. When checking out, my travel companions all felt it was a pity and didn't want to leave. The two hotels are not comparable in any way, especially in terms of service. To put it bluntly, it's the difference between a regular army and a guerrilla force.
The hotel structure cannot be fully presented on a phone. You can check out other photos on xx. The real thing is even more beautiful. Since I arrived on the first night, and it was cloudy the next day, I didn't see the light and shadow of the hotel. I hope to have good weather next time.
The hotel food is also very good. The yak meat for dinner is very tender. The chopped chili eggplant is very spicy and perfect for those who like spicy food. It's a great dish to go with rice. The tofu is also very fresh and fragrant. My Australian friend who doesn't eat spicy food ate it all with rice. The breakfast is also very rich, and the wine at the bar on the fourth floor is also very affordable and reasonably priced. The view of Meili Snow Mountain from the fourth floor is also very good. Even if you don't see the golden sunrise, the snow mountain is still very beautiful.
If I come to Shangri-La again, I will definitely stay at this hotel again. I didn't get enough of the view or the stay. The souvenir I received when I left was also very beautiful, and I immediately hung it on my backpack.

| Stay in an art gallery after descending from Meili Mountain! Shangri-La | Stay in an art gallery after descending from Meili Mountain
I booked a room at Jixiashan for a photo of the sunrise on Kawaboge
I was overjoyed to book a room with a view of the snow-capped mountains
But the heavy fog these days blocked the view of the snow-capped mountains
Maybe not every time you are overjoyed
You will get what you want, it's good to learn to accept impermanence
Let's talk about the hotel, it's in a mountainous area, surrounded by villages
The aesthetics of the hotel are interpreted in every corner
The facilities in the room are quite complete, but the hotel itself is not big and the supporting facilities are not complete. It is not necessary for friends who come for the snow-capped mountains to spend a high price to book a room with a view of the snow-capped mountains
The environment platform on the fourth floor is yyds
In addition, friends who come from afar should still check the weather before traveling. After October, the chance of seeing the sunrise on the Golden Mountain will be higher. It's a bit disappointing to spend a few thousand to lie down for one night.

Every frame of these beautiful Yunnan guesthouses is a masterpiece.
It's hard to resist the allure of the majestic snow-capped mountains. They stand tall and proud on the horizon, their beauty and mystery never fading with the changing seasons. Gazing up at the towering snow-capped mountains, the peaks are like white pyramids, shrouded in mist and sparkling in the sunlight.

Yunnan's Jixiashan Meri | Away from the hustle and bustle, immerse yourself in nature
"Many snow-capped mountains in the Tibetan areas are climbable, and the Tibetans don't mind,
except for Mount Kawagebo, the foremost of the eight sacred mountains,
which is their guardian mountain and is not to be violated,
if you climb it, you will pay with your life."
·
Jixiashan is a very philosophical place, it has a 360° panoramic terrace for viewing the Meri Snow Mountain,
with floor-to-ceiling windows on all sides, and the thirteen peaks of Meri lined up opposite
Sometimes it makes you feel like you're looking up at the Meri Snow Mountain, but more often it makes you feel like you're looking at everything on the same level,
When encountering mountains, modern people always want to climb vertically, while Tibetans choose to walk around them horizontally.
·
This is actually about the relationship with nature, humans too eager to control and show their own power
and forget that some things, it's better to always have reverence
Devotion and awe, or climbing and conquering
Humans approach the edge of their own spiritual world so differently in different regions
·
Jixiashan's location, being at a certain distance from the snow mountain, makes it grand but not oppressive
This is also what I think is the best state of life
If you allow everything to look down on you, then you are a mountain, living in the shadow all your life
If you feel everything looking up to you, then you consider yourself perfect, and give up inward exploration in search of yourself in the eyes of all things
Only by looking straight ahead can you see the real you, and only by looking straight ahead can you be with the Meri Snow Mountain

🌲 Surroundings
▪️ Dense Fog Top Viewing Platform: Five minutes walk, there's also a lone tree nearby that's super photogenic
▪️ Feilai Temple: Thirty minutes by car, closer to the snow mountain, also
btw Jixiashan can capture Feilai Temple in front of the snow mountain, adding more layers to the landscape
▪️ Mingyong Glacier: One and a half hours by car, the ice stretches for thousands of kilometers, close-up view of the sacred Mount Kawagebo
▪️ Baima Snow Mountain: Within 1 hour by car, take the old National Highway 214, encounter mountains full of rhododendrons, light hiking route 7 kilometers, close-up feel the grandeur of Baima Snow Mountain
▪️ Yubeng Village: Two hours by car, a dream for trekkers

Come and feel the pure white realm at the foot of the snow mountain, a place to evolve the soul
Every piece of land in Yunnan has its own unique colors and emotions. Located at the foot of the Meili Snow Mountain, a secret spot in Yunnan, the guesthouse 'Xia Shan•Meili' is situated at an altitude of over 3600 meters, nestled in the village of Wunongding in Deqin County, Diqing Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province. It is a building that combines Tibetan and modern architecture, rising amidst the tranquil snow-capped mountains with curling smoke from its chimneys.
Design
The hotel was originally a Tibetan-style residence of a Tibetan language school. The architecture is a renovation based on the rammed earth Tibetan house, created by the young architect Zhao Yang, who studied under Kazuyo Sejima. It integrates traditional Tibetan architectural style. The interior design was completed by the award-winning designer Xie Ke, featuring a terrace on the top that offers a 360° panoramic view of the Meili Snow Mountain. The room is surrounded by floor-to-ceiling glass windows, allowing guests to watch the sunrise in the early morning, admire the golden mountain when the mist clears, and gaze at the stars at night.
Rooms
The hotel's 19 guest rooms are all themed around mountain living, with names like 'Deep Forest Residence', 'Cloud Ridge Mountain Residence', 'Elegant Residence among Heavy Ranges', 'Atop Wunongding', and 'Pastoral Cloud Leisure Residence'. They use simple and comfortable materials and appropriately furnished furniture, paired with the local culture and wabi-sabi style decorations, creating a unique Tibetan home scenery together with the sunset over the snow mountain seen through the windows.
Dining
As it is located in a small village like a paradise, the guesthouse provides three meals and afternoon tea. The chef changes the menu daily, and the yak hotpot here is a must-try, warming the body with just one bite. You can also go to the Hengduan Mountains at an altitude of 4300 meters, where you dine in the midst of nature, with the sky and earth as your seat and the food and table as your medium, savoring the beauty and tranquility of life in each meal and drink.

It is recommended to visit the Big Buddha Temple at the top of Turtle Hill Park, which has a very large prayer wheel that you can turn three times clockwise to pray;
There are many snacks in the ancient town, but this shop is highly recommended: ☕️ Snow Mountain Little Kitchen Dormito Cafe
A very beautiful shop~ It has coffee, desserts, and meals, with good value for money!
This shop is renovated from a Tibetan-style residence, retaining most of the traditional Tibetan architecture, a very charming old house.
Also, the afternoon tea at Diqing Moonlight City Indigo Hotel, where you can enjoy desserts while overlooking Dukezong Ancient Town, is very pleasant~
2. Wunongding Viewing Platform
Facing Meili Snow Mountain Kawagebo, you can ask the hotel staff about the time of the sunlit Meili Snow Mountain.
There is a tree at Wunongding, a very niche but very photogenic spot!!
3. Napa Lake
The sky is so blue, the clouds are so white, it looks like a world in a comic, every shot is beautiful~
4. Yubeng Scenic Area - Sacred Waterfall
Hiking to the Sacred Waterfall is really enjoyable! It feels so good to walk into nature, although the road to Yubeng is a bit difficult, the scenery is really pure!!!
Along the way, there are prayer flags and mani stones, full of blessings.
With a guide leading the way, it takes about 5.6 hours to walk slowly, remember to bring some food with you and drink less water!
The Ice Lake is more difficult to walk, so follow your physical strength and the guide's advice~

JOHNNY POTTER
Such a beautiful hotel and homestay!
From the day before check-in to departure, the overall service of Jixiashan · Meili made me very satisfied. The day before check-in, customer service will add WeChat and pull into a group. There are two staff members in the group who respond at any time.
Before arrival, customer service reminded us that there will be wine tasting and snow mountain documentary activities on the 4th floor in the evening. They will also ask us about our arrival time and whether we need dinner. After arriving at the store, the staff member Zhang Jiacheng (I asked for his name specifically! Praise him!) explained various information to us in detail when receiving us. Then he sent a text version to the group again. After entering the room, he will also kindly remind us that we can turn off the floor heating when we sleep at night to avoid too dry air. He then explained the paper version of the wifi information and 24-hour contact number again. The two nights at Jixiashan were also the most comfortable nights for me and my family on this trip (I was woken up at dawn in Songzan)

The snow mountain homestay that has blown up the circle of friends, lying and watching the sunrise over the golden mountain!
The snow mountain homestay that has blown up the circle of friends, lying and watching the sunrise over the golden mountain, here is an excellent accommodation environment, the view from the 4th floor, is undoubtedly the snow mountain homestay that has blown up the circle of friends.
Homestay: Meili Mountain
Location: Wunongding, Shengping Town, Deqin County, Diqing Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province.
Transportation: It is more than three hours drive from Meili Snow Mountain to Shangri-La, it is recommended to rent a car.
On one side is Meili Snow Mountain, on the other side is Baima Snow Mountain.
The overall architecture is a square, the shape is very regular, the 4th floor balcony is the best hotel to watch the sunrise over the golden mountain. Walking from the 3rd floor to the 4th floor, the first thing you see is the Meili Snow Mountain peaks in front of you. And on the other side is Baima Snow Mountain.
Design style
The bedroom is very warm, modern rammed earth, the overall wood color tone, entering the hotel gives a sense of being wrapped. The texture of cotton and linen, the grain of solid wood, gives a sense of closeness. Each room's window view can see the snow mountain, the price of the homestay is expensive, if the budget is limited, you can choose a cheaper room, and the real good view is in the public area. The restaurant can also see the snow mountain, eating hot pot while watching the snow mountain. The price of the restaurant is a bit expensive compared to before, but the chef's production is ceremonial.
