Yingshan Chenxi · Shiguang Hotel

Nestled in Dazhuyuan, Group 6 of Taohuachong State-owned Forest Farm Park in Yingshan County, Hubei Province, deep in the Dabie Mountains at an altitude of around 1,000 meters, the hotel stands quietly as an ideal destination for getting close to nature and enjoying a relaxing vacation. Hotel Location and Surroundings The hotel is situated within the Taohuachong Tourist Resort, surrounded by mountains and forests with a 98% forest coverage rate. As a boundary between northern and southern climates, it boasts an average annual temperature of about 17°C, particularly cool in summer. The air is fresh, with negative ion concentrations reaching up to 20,000 per cubic centimeter, making it a natural summer retreat. There are plenty of nearby attractions: stepping out, you can wander along the Ten-Li Peach Blossom Stream, where the gurgling water brings coolness. Along the way, there are waterfalls like Jiulong, Chilian, and Taohua, as well as clear pools such as Xiannü, Jingxin, and Xuanwu, perfect for a splash. The Taohuachong Grand Canyon Rafting is a summer highlight, with splashing waves in the rapids offering a mix of coolness and excitement, letting you get up close with nature. Adjacent to the hotel is the Taohuachong Forest Farm, with lush trees, ancient towering woods, and winding forest trails—strolling here chases away the summer heat, letting you soak in the forest's tranquility and vitality. Xiaoqiling is also nearby, standing majestically as a link between Hubei and Anhui. It preserves the ancient charm of Chu City and is a renowned red landmark. Historically a strategic military site, it is home to the winding Chu Great Wall, resembling a dragon coiled along the ridge. The "Zhaoguan" pass of the Wu-Chu Great Wall is imposing, and it is where the age-old story "Wu Zixu passing Zhaoguan—turning white overnight" took place. Additionally, Xiaoqiling is where the first light of the new century rises in Hubei Province; many visitors come specially to climb the "Century Dawn Beacon Tower" to watch the sunrise at dawn. Not far from the hotel is the 28th Red Army Memorial Hall, where you can learn about the three-year history of the Dabie Mountains guerrilla warfare. The Taohuachong Ski Resort is also a great place for enjoying snow and winter activities. Hotel Facilities and Services The hotel offers various room types, including mountain-view rooms and deluxe suites, all carefully furnished with high-quality bedding and furniture. The floor-to-ceiling windows let you take in the full view of the Dabie Mountains, and opening the windows on summer nights lets in the cool mountain breeze. The hotel restaurant specializes in local dishes, using fresh, healthy ingredients sourced from surrounding mountains and farmlands—try specialties like Yingshan black goat and Luotian chestnuts. There are also chess rooms and tea houses for guests to relax with friends and family. On the open-air viewing platform, you can enjoy a cup of tea while savoring the mountain's coolness and tranquility.
