Sitting on the large terrace, the whole body is blown by the refreshing mountain breeze mixed with the smell of camphor and birch. You can see the green valley and the lake view of the invincible reservoir as far as you can see. You can sniff the pure breath of lavender gently when you plunge into the lavender bushes. Children are playing and rolling on the grass, adults are sitting on the porch eating vegetarian meals and drinking lavender iced tea, and then a purple lavender ice cream full of milky and lavender aromas. This is a wonderful summer exclusive to Miyun Yunfeng Mountain!
I have heard the name of the Fairy Tale Tree House in Yunfeng Mountain in Miyun for a long time, and I finally have the opportunity to have a close contact with it. As soon as the car stopped, I felt the fairytale atmosphere of Yunfeng Mountain. I took the shuttle bus up the mountain at Xingfu Station, and the first thing I saw was a large piece of purple sage, a super cute hand-painted map, and the little monsters’ exploration of Yunfeng Mountain. It's about to start!
Dreamland Lavender Garden and Levanti Lavender Shop
Children's favorite areas are the Peter Rabbit slide at the entrance and the Mengtian Lavender Garden. Find the signpost of Mengtian at the entrance and go downhill to the romantic Mengtian Lavender Garden. Go to the Mengtian Lavender Garden Along the way, the flowers and plants along the way are dizzying: the beautiful cherry blossoms that the rabbit loves most, the catnip that fascinates the cat, the apricots that hang on the branches, the bird cookies made by the children for the birds with whole grains, and the hanging on the tree. Wind chimes play beautiful music in the treetops.
Among the sage and roses, a lovely European-style building stands in it. This is the Levantie shop. When you come here, you can harvest a lot of lavender products, such as lavender sachets, lavender handmade soap, lavender jam, lavender spray and Essential oils... the big wind chimes hanging on the treetops can also be bought here!
The most popular in summer is the "Happiness Fragrance", not only because it is decorated with colorful and romantic flowers, it has become a dreamy photo check-in point, but also because it has a very cute little mechanism, press the button, and the arch will spray out The fresh water vapor full of lavender flavor refreshes our sticky body instantly!
fairy tree house
Passing through the Mingyuan Restaurant and the East Temple, you will come to the Yunfeng Mountain Fairy Tale Tree House hidden in Yunfeng Mountain. There are 21 fairytale tree houses inhabiting the forest, and the names of each one make people look forward to, such as Cinderella Castle, Tom Huck, Snow White, Jack and the Beanstalk, The Little Prince, Little Red Riding Hood, Swan Lake, Blue Bird...
Simply climb along the boardwalk to reach every fairy tree house in the forest. Every fairy tale tree house has a different style. The Jack and the Beanstalk tree house is really like in a fairy tale. The big beanstalk grows on the tree house, which is actually a long slide leading from the house to the outside. Children They can slide freely unlimited times.
My favorite is the fairy tale tree house in Swan Lake, which is the one with the widest view of all fairy tale tree houses. Here you can lie in bed and enjoy the invincible lake view of the secluded valley and the 270° sparkling Miyun Reservoir, but I prefer to sit on the terrace, where I can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the valley without being disturbed, and feel the breath of nature while blowing the mountain breeze. The interior is a famous British mattress Slumberland bed, solid wood and leather furniture, huge floor-to-ceiling windows, making the whole room full of wild luxury.
However, the fairy tale tree house is really popular. If you can’t get a reservation, you can live in the East Temple at the foot of the mountain. The room is fresh and elegant, full of strong Zen, and it is also very close to the restaurant, which is very suitable for the elderly.
Mingyuan Cultural Restaurant
If you think that the restaurants in the scenic area are not delicious, then this stereotype will make you lose a good experience. There is a Mingyuan cultural restaurant in Yunfeng Mountain. The location is very good. It is at the core of the scenic spot, and there is a particularly soft lawn in front of the restaurant. Children can roll on the grass to their heart's content.
Because of the Chaosheng Nunnery in Yunfeng Mountain, Mingyuan Restaurant is a vegetarian restaurant, but you can’t tell it’s a vegetarian restaurant just by looking at the menu. The pickled fish made of soybean protein and seaweed, if you don't touch it carefully, you really think it is pickled fish! Three Cup Chicken also looks like chicken at first glance. It is particularly commendable that the dishes here use self-extracted sunflower oil, which is particularly healthy. In summer, have another cup of natural lavender iced tea, which is cool and relaxing.
Although sitting on the outdoor porch, there are no mosquitoes and flies to harass. It turns out that there are a lot of mosquito-repelling plants in the garden, which not only release a relaxing smell, but also effectively repel mosquitoes and flies. Parents don’t have to worry about their children. The little tender meat was full of bites.
Yunfeng Mountain Flower Viewing
Yunfeng Mountain is a place suitable for different seasons. In addition to the purple lavender garden, there are also cherry blossoms on the way up the mountain, pear blossoms in the west, apricot blossoms near the Buddha Stone, and peach blossoms in the tree house area. There are sophora japonica flowers in Chaosheng Nunnery in early summer, and there are large maple leaves next to Chaosheng Nunnery in autumn.
There are also many interesting interactive experiences here. You can copy the Heart Sutra in Chaosheng Nunnery, or make bird cookies and seed collages on the lawn of Mingyuan, make tea bags for clearing lungs, and make miniature tea bags under the wind chime tree. The garden...the forest is full of activities.
