Hidden Paradise in Chongqing | Xiyuan Muxi Guesthouse Healing Experience

Hidden atop Nanshan Mountain in Chongqing, "Xiyuan Muxi" feels like a love letter written with green tiles and white walls, seamlessly blending the smoky charm of the Bayu mountain city with modern healing aesthetics. As you step inside, the scents of sandalwood and coffee intertwine, while a long wooden table adorned with handmade pottery and wildflowers greets you. The owner’s freshly baked longan and jujube cake is served warm—revealing the magic behind the name "Muxi," which instantly melts away fatigue. The rooms are themed "Morning and Dusk of the Foggy City," with floor-to-ceiling windows framing layered mountain views. At night, paper lanterns illuminate the space, transforming it into a golden dreamscape. The rooftop terrace is the highlight: in the morning, you can watch the Yuzhong Peninsula awaken amidst the mist, and by evening, it turns into a starlit bar where the bartender crafts "Mountain City Tipsy" cocktails with a hint of local Sichuan pepper. Upon departure, the owner discreetly hands over a bag of handmade pickled chicken feet: "Next time, bring your friends and sit at the spot across the way—it offers the best view of Chongqing’s sunrise." This is perhaps the most touching metaphor of the guesthouse—not just a place to rest, but a keeper of the city’s memories.
