1-Hour Drive from Chengdu: Private Hot Spring Bath

My friend recommended the Xidi Aranya Resort near Anren Ancient Town, which is just an hour's drive away. We decided to go there to relax. - ✍🏻The resort's ancient-style buildings are located in the fields, creating a strong contrast between modern and historical, rural and urban. - ♨️The private hot spring bath is a highlight of the resort. The rooms on the first floor have a relatively private large balcony, where the private hot spring bath is located. There are banana trees 🌴 outside the balcony, creating a feeling of soaking in nature. This experience is suitable for any kind of relationship: spending quality time with family, having a memorable date with a lover, having a fun chat with friends, or relaxing alone. - 📜The resort's exterior is ancient-style, while the interior is modern, creating a time-space exchange. The wooden furniture and beige color scheme make people feel happy and relaxed, while the bright orange decorations add a touch of warmth. My friend joked that the owner is a fan of Hermes. Another detail is that the hotel provides Dyson hair dryers, which is very friendly to hair lovers. - 🌾There are also outdoor rest areas scattered among the iris fields and reeds, like independent worlds, creating a secret private space. The infinity pool and public hot spring bath are perfect for friends who love to take photos! - ☕️I was thinking about having to make drip coffee in the morning, but the resort not only has a capsule coffee machine in the room but also a coffee shop. The rich aroma of freshly ground Arabica beans instantly refreshed me. - 👑Of course, besides playing, eating is also an important part of a vacation. The resort thoughtfully set up four restaurants. - 🍳The breakfast restaurant has a transparent glass design and offers a semi-buffet breakfast. Whether it's sunny or rainy, you can start a beautiful day in a natural landscape. - 🥘The main meal is even better. The Western restaurant is more like a winery, offering selected French Bordeaux wine with a rich taste. Paired with Australian grain-fed steak and French pan-fried lamb chops, the meat juices and wine blend in the mouth, like fireworks blooming on the taste buds. - 🥢The Chinese restaurant is more cultural, with an old winery exhibition hall next to it. Paired with delicious hot pot and Chinese food, it feels like a sensory feast in the historical smoke and fire. - 🐣Energetic people can explore the surrounding area, such as Anren Ancient Town, Liu's Manor, Jianchuan Museum, etc.
