Liping Zhaoxing Landscape Resort  

On the edge of Zhaoxing Dong Village Scenic Area in Liping County, Guizhou — a mountain-and-water hideaway that faces the Xihu Bridge and backs onto green peaks. Steps from Zhaoxing Dong Village and the Tang'an Terraced Fields, this family-friendly retreat plugs you straight into Dong culture and epic hiking routes.

A four-story hill lodge with about 27 bright, quiet rooms — waterside doubles and twins, duplex family suites, and shallow-mountain family rooms. Big floor-to-ceiling glass, in-room tea tables or tatami, sofas and desks give each room a chill, lived-in vibe. Outside, discover a private mountain-view garden, a Sky Mirror photo spot, a wooden cliff platform, a cliff-side book bar, bamboo-forest tea room, sunroom tea pavilion and a dreamlike backyard with koi and a waterfall.

Bar, on-site restaurant, mountaintop coffee shop, library and picnic area set the social tone. Practical perks include parking, elevator, self-service laundry and ironing, a linen-washing room, water-purification system and 24-hour hot water — part of the homestay’s all-inclusive basic facilities. There’s also a barbecue courtyard, scenic platforms for sunset views, and photography-friendly check-in spots.

Rooms come with Wi‑Fi and luggage-transfer service; public spaces include comfortable seating and a quiet book bar that can double as a low-key workspace.

A restaurant and sunroom tea pavilion serve local flavors and snacks; the mountaintop coffee shop offers coffees, milk teas and light bites with panoramic views. Bookable experiences range from long-table Dong banquets and tea-art sessions to DIY barbecue nights — perfect for tasting authentic Dong cuisine while watching the clouds roll over the valley.
