Ganzhou's new hotel brand Unna returns to its hometown

In recent years, domestic homestays and boutique hotel brands have rapidly expanded in second- and third-tier cities, with some becoming popular for a time and others gradually disappearing. This time, the new hotel brand Unna is located in Shangyou, Ganzhou, marking a return to the hometown by its owner and the birth of a new brand. From a design perspective, since the owner has an architectural background, both the architecture and planning are impressive. The use of Spanish red bricks makes the building stand out among ordinary homestays. The landscape is still undergoing final adjustments, so it remains to be seen. I stayed in a lake-view suite this time, which offers views of the inner lake and part of the South Lake. The interior decoration and layout are quite reasonable. My favorite part is the outdoor private bath, which creates a great atmosphere with candles at night. The hotel has a total of 57 rooms. I also toured other suite types, and the larger ones are equipped with tatami tea rooms (which can also serve as separate rooms). The color scheme leans more towards green, which I personally find average. I prefer the type of room I stayed in. The in-room amenities are all up to five-star standards, including Le Labo 33 and Dyson products. In terms of soft services, breakfast currently features a large and tasty set combining Chinese and Western styles. The Chinese restaurant focuses on Jiangxi and Cantonese cuisine, which can be spicy or mild, and the flavors are quite good. There will also be a teppanyaki restaurant in the future. The hotel is currently in its trial operation phase, and the overall experience is good. The entire hotel is built to the quality of a high-end boutique hotel. How it will maintain this quality, create its unique personality and brand story, and whether its subsequent services can meet expectations remain to be seen.

I went to Zhufengding alone during the May Day holiday for everyone. There is always a sunrise and sea of clouds worth pursuing.

In Shuiyan Township of Shangyou County, there is a village called Qixing Village. It has beautiful grassland scenery like Sai, and it is limited in time. It can only be seen from the end of March to the middle of April. The meandering river stretches far into the distance, so you don't know how to describe it. Before I came to Qixing Village, I thought that it was still a small family, and I did not expect that there would be such a good side. The sky is wild, the rivers are flowing, the cows are in groups. This is a picture~ the lake reflects the beautiful scenery. Even nature itself feels that this scene is extremely precious, so I want to copy one. Share. This piece of wetland is in the lower reaches of the steep water lake reservoir. It is generally only visible from the end of March to the beginning of April. If it is early, the grass has not yet grown. If it is late, the water level will not see the grassland, so it is time-limited. Great view.

Traveling to Shangyu, a whole fish banquet is essential, otherwise it would be nice to say that you have been to Shangyu. The abundant water resources and excellent ecological environment have made the fish here fresh and beautiful. For dinner, we drove to Baishui Village, where we used a authentic Shangyu fish feast.

When traveling to Shangyu, we have to experience the joy of tea picking in person, so we walked to the tea garden on the mountain. On the road, I met this group of innocent little girls. Its like picking tea girls. Yuancun is a famous tea professional village with a well-preserved ecological environment and high forest coverage. It is a village integrating sightseeing, ancient exploration, experience and amusement. In front of the tea garden terraced fields and gardens, people are beautiful. In the tea industry, the Tea Boutique Park, the Tea Museum, and the Tea Garden have formed an industrial chain of tea, tea, tea, tea, tea and tea performances for visitors to watch. At the same time, the tea garden also tastes the characteristics of tea culture, and forgets to return. Cute little girl picking tea leaves in an orderly manner, like a professional tea picker. Sometimes quietly picking tea, and sometimes running with my companions, this wonderful childhood is awesome! After taking a cup of tea, we went to the viewing platform at the top of the tea garden and enjoyed the view of the village in the best position. The blue sky, the green plants, the white wall and the gray tile building, this is a painting called Yuancun. Although it is simple but full of reality, it is very quiet. There are plenty of places to rest at the top of the tea garden. The design is very Zen and blends with the entire tea garden. Fortunately, I can still hear the sweet songs here. As for the tea garden staff or tourists, I didn't go to the study because I was listening.

We drove to the Garden Village in Meishui Township, Shangyu County, which is on the shore of the steep water lake and 14 kilometers from the county seat. The mountainous area is rich in resources, surrounded by mountains and beautiful tea gardens. There is a little view of the garden in the middle of the mountain. It is a round pot and is named "Garden Village". Visitors in the garden village can learn about the tea culture, and can experience the fun of tea picking in the tea garden. You can also enjoy the whole picture of the whole village at the top of the tea garden. It is very beautiful. First of all, we came to the Jujiang Green Moon Ecological Park, a quaint building, a winding bridge, and a mirror-like lake, which made a beautiful picture. There is a performance in the lobby of the Jujiang Green Moon Ecological Park, which includes calligraphy, tea art and guzheng music. It is definitely an audio-visual feast. Then we moved to the tea garden behind, a group of beautiful young ladies and handsome little brothers waiting for us, they performed wonderful tea art for the tourists. The male tea artist is very, very small, so I can't help but take a few more shots. The combination of superb tea art and beautiful dance makes drinking tea a very poetic thing. The unique geographical environment and climate of Shangju have created the unique quality of June Ju Green Tea, which is beautiful, green, mellow and fragrant. According to research, from the early years of the Ming Dynasty, Shangyu green tea began to tribute to the court, and it is still a wonderful gift for visiting relatives and friends.

When we visited Shangyu, it was the opening of the tourist season in the tea town of Jue, so the whole of Judah was very lively. Adding to the maiden voyage of Yangming Lake (Deep Lake), we are also catching up. It is really happy. Therefore, I also happened to see the folk performances in Shangyu. Yangming Lake (Deep Lake) is a national 4A-level scenic spot, 70 kilometers away from Cangzhou City. It spans the two counties of Juju and Chongyi. It is the largest abundant water resources area in southern Anhui with a water area of 3100. 10,000 square meters, water storage capacity of more than 800 million cubic meters, forest area of 340,000 acres. Here, the natural lakes, the green islands, the lush green plants, the majestic mountains and rocks, the folk customs of the origins, there is nowhere to paint, nowhere is not poetry. Then, we have to board the painting and start a trip to the lake. The simple and elegant "Steep Water Pearl" painting can carry 149 passengers. The construction of the barge is built according to the pavilions and pavilions in ancient Chinese architecture. The construction process is complex and strict. The characteristics of the antique painting raft boat are the shape of the flying horns and the exquisite four-corner pavilion. It stands on the bow of the ship, and the ancient royal iconic elements are reflected on the painting boat. In addition to carvings and flower windows, the whole boat also has a point of view, that is, the beautiful and high-pitched stern of the arc, adding rich and gorgeous temperament to the whole boat. Sometimes wide, sometimes narrow, variable lake posture. On the shore of the mountain, the time is the abundant soil, but the cold rock is also a gesture.

In the past, many of the imaginations of the grasslands came from places like Inner Mongolia and Xinjiang. Few people thought that the south also had green grassy scenery and small rivers. In fact, there is also a grassland in Shangyu County in the southwestern part of the river, known as the "Hulunbeier Prairie" in the south. Jiangxi's Hulunbeier Prairie is located in Qixing Village, Shuiyan Township, Shangyou County, Chenzhou City. It is the Kuwan District after the construction of the power plant. This grassland has a very short time. It will disappear mysteriously every year in May and June. The reason is only understood by the local people. The main reason for the disappearance of the Seven Star Prairie every year is the rising water level in the nearby rivers and lakes. The Seven-Star Prairie is flat and wide, with ponds and creeks dotted in the middle. It is surrounded by quiet small villages and rolling hills. The green green on the hills and the green ground try differently to form a layered picture. Due to its location in the south, the vegetation of the Seven Star Prairie is more diverse than that of the northern grassland. Some bamboo and farmland can be seen on the edge of the grassland. Under extreme weather such as heavy rains, the local shepherds and cattlemen can be seen grazing in the seven-star prairie every day during the fertile period of water and grass. The picture is very similar to the grassland scenery seen in oil paintings. Although the environment is beautiful, but the Seven Star Prairie is not yet well known to the public, she is like a subtle girl, half veil, only the heart can see her beautiful face. From the heights overlooking the seven-star prairie, vast and heroic, into the hinterland of the grassland, you feel the soft and soft side. rainwater creates a small lake for the grassland, and the green hills are reflected on the lake, quiet and magnificent!
