There are many boutique homestays and resorts in the suburbs of Beijing, but some places will catch your eyes and capture your heart in the first moment.
Every time I mention Pinggu, my impression is still only in scenic spots such as Jinhai Lake, Shilin Gorge, and Great Karst Cave. I even feel that this place is suitable for playing but not suitable for living. Except for a few regular hotels, there are no homestays or resorts that particularly impress me. ; until I met Taoyuan Valley.
It is a very smooth road from the urban area to Taoyuan Valley Resort. Turn left from a mountain pass called "Emei Mountain" and you will enter the Taoyuan-like world. It is the season when apricots are ripe. The lush apricot grove is dotted with plump fruits like small lanterns. This is a very quiet mountain road, and the end point is the resort on the mountainside.

There are four single-family villas and one guest room building in the resort. The guest room building has 16 rooms in total, including 13 standard rooms and 3 suites.
We stayed in Villa E, which is a villa with an outer ring corridor and a mini yard. Entering the villa, it is simply magnificent, with gold-plated hanging clocks, European-style fireplaces, Versace-style furniture, colorful porcelain dripping Guanyin... a luxurious and atmospheric decoration style It is eye-catching.
The child was full of novelty about the room, wandered around in the room, and finally ran to the living room, sat on the sofa and ate a lot of fruit. The first floor of the villa is mainly an open-plan dining room, living room, and master bedroom, and each area has a large space. If four families come to play together, it will not be crowded.

In the villas in Taoyuan Valley, there are all kinds of home and daily necessities you can imagine.

Why write about the night scene of Taoyuan Valley alone, not only because of the beauty, but also because childhood memories can be found here.
When we were young, every time after school, we couldn't wait to finish our homework and go out to play with our friends. We didn't want to go home until late; facing the lawn of Taoyuan Valley and the children who couldn't stop, This memory reappeared in my mind.
Taoyuan Valley leaves the greatest space for children, who can release their experiences indefinitely at any time, and the outdoor lights and lawns will always belong to them. According to the staff, outdoor expansion facilities will be added here in the future to meet the entertainment needs of children of different ages.
restaurant
meals
As a self-proclaimed gourmet expert, I thought I knew the food in the suburbs of Beijing, but I was still amazed by the food in Taoyuan Valley!
The reason why the food this time is shocking is that as a resort in the suburbs of Beijing, the food standard of Taoyuan Valley is no less than that of a five-star hotel, or the chef here is from a five-star hotel, so the dishes tend to be more healthy And the Cantonese cuisine that everyone loves very much.
The restaurants in Taoyuan Valley are mainly concentrated on two floors. The first floor is for scattered tables in the lobby, and the second floor is for private rooms. Due to the transportation of ingredients and other issues, there is no a la carte service here, but there are A and B set menus at different prices. The quantity is also quite rich.
Soup in Cantonese cuisine is very skillful. Whether it is soup or stew, it takes a long time and patience to make it; it is said that "three pots and four stews", stewing soup is more time-consuming and labor-intensive. Immediately win the good impression of the guests.
A bowl of stewed chicken soup in Taoyuan Valley, the color of the soup is clear, and the original flavor of the ingredients is kept to the maximum extent, which is praised by everyone, even the children especially like it!
Plates of dishes are served on the table, not only the delicacy of innovative dishes, but also the chef's personal ideas and the customs and characteristics of the suburbs of Beijing. The Cantonese cuisine here is more inclined to Cantonese cuisine, which is light but not light, fresh but not vulgar.
The dishes follow the "five flavors and six flavors" of Cantonese cuisine, and the garden flowers of Taoyuan Valley are widely used in the presentation, without losing the local style of the farm; the combination of the two is well controlled.
Agricultural interest
Agricultural interest
There are two places in Taoyuan Valley that allow people to return to the countryside, one is the animals, and the other is the vegetable garden. Peacocks and geese here are very popular with children. Apart from playing on the lawn, they just run to the small animals to "greeting".
There is also an independent small vegetable garden in Taoyuan Valley, where many vegetables eaten in the restaurant are picked from here; we were very lucky to experience the feeling of being a "small farmer in the vegetable garden" for a while.
The children walked in the field with bags and picked rapeseed, lettuce, lettuce, etc. from being timid and afraid of bugs to taking the first step bravely. What you harvest is not only the vegetables in your hands, but also a courage.
