Find a secluded retreat in the heart of the city | Zen·Meditation·Seclusion

📍 Zen Retreat·Elegant Courtyard Hotel (Near Wenshu Monastery & Chunxi Road) Ambiance💖: The hotel embraces a "Zen-inspired" 📿 aesthetic throughout. The lobby, courtyard🏡, and guest rooms🛋️ are meticulously designed, blending natural🍃 and cultural elements with lush greenery🌳 and murmuring water features🎍, creating an atmosphere of tranquility and harmony. 🏨 Upon entering, the electric sliding doors part slowly to reveal a screen inscribed with the character "Zen." Behind it lies a quaint and elegant🪷 courtyard adorned with miniature mountains⛰️, flowing water, verdant plants🍃, fragrant incense, and soothing melodies🎶—like stepping into a living painting🖼️ that instantly uplifts the spirit. I arrived during a light drizzle, perfect for enjoying a game of chess♟️ or sipping tea🍵 while playing the guqin in the first-floor courtyard. As the sky☁️ grew dim, chatting over tea felt utterly blissful. Rooms🛏️: Furnished with imported golden nanmu🪵 wood, the rooms exude a subtle woody fragrance for better sleep. Warm lighting💡 enhances the serene🪔 and cozy vibe. Smart room controls allow you to call📞 "Xiaowei" for any request. The premium smart🚽 toilet includes an emergency button🔘, ideal for elderly guests. The bathroom🧽 features a separate shower🚿, with the🧼 sink outside for a more spacious feel. The🛏️ bedding is exceptionally comfortable—the mattress strikes the perfect balance between firm and soft, ensuring restful sleep. The curtains🪟 offer excellent blackout, sealing out daylight completely❗️. Relax on the🧸 tatami with a cup of☕️ tea while gazing at the scenic🎑 views outside—a truly serene moment. Tips🪑: The hotel offers a unique breakfast and Zen activities. If you'd like to try meditation🧘 or scripture copying📜, contact the butler. A small activity room on the 5th floor is perfect for quiet reflection. From check-in, the hotel🏨 provides butler-style service—guiding you through the layout, carrying luggage🧳, and answering questions—making the experience truly👍 exceptional! 🎈 A distinctive touch: Buddhist prayer beads📿 double as your room key and power card, adding to the Zen ambiance. Nearby⤵️: Wenshu Monastery is an 8-minute walk away, ideal for exploring and dining. 🚇 Metro Lines 1/6 are within walking🚶‍♀️ distance, and Chunxi Road or Kuanzhai Alley are just a 10-minute🚗 ride. For photography📷 enthusiasts, wear traditional Chinese attire at sunset🌅—flowing robes👘 against the courtyard's🏡 scenery—to capture stunning📸 oriental-style portraits.

🕊️ Find Peace at Wenshu Monastery (文殊院), Chengdu’s Spiritual Heart

Wenshu Monastery

#chinatravel Spent a day temple hopping around Chengdu in Sichuan Province and it was honestly such a vibe. Each temple has its own energy, and it’s the perfect way to slow down and soak in the peaceful side of the city. Started at Wenshu Monastery which was super calm and had monks chanting softly in the background. The tea garden there is a must, I sat with a cup and just chilled under the trees for like an hour. Then hit up Qingyang Palace, which has Taoist vibes and some wild looking statues. The whole place feels super balanced and kind of magical. Also stopped by Daci Temple which is right in the middle of the city but still quiet once you step inside. The contrast between ancient temples and modern buildings is actually kinda cool. If you want a break from the city noise and a little dose of calm, temple hopping in Chengdu totally hits. Just go with the flow, light some incense, and enjoy the moment.
