Property Description
The Markang Xiaoguanzhai homestay is like a brilliant pearl, embedded in the plateau of Markang. It is located in the core area of the Dust Settled Red Long March Cultural Tourism Scenic Area and the Zhuokeji Tusi Official Village Scenic Area, integrating traditional Jiarong architectural culture style with contemporary homestay design concepts. The homestay is nestled by mountains and rivers, with the murmuring water of the Suomo River flowing beside it, creating a picturesque scenery. Here, you will be surrounded by the unique natural scenery. Under the blue sky and white clouds, amidst the green mountains and waters, every breath is filled with freshness and tranquility. The simple and hot local customs make you feel as if you are in a warm embrace. The rich historical background of the chieftain official village seems like a heavy historical book, waiting for you to read. The three-dimensional and vivid characters in "Dust Settles" seem to be right beside you, leading you through the long river of history and experiencing the sedimentation of time. When you step into the Xiaoguanzhai homestay, you can feel the unique tranquility and peace. Every detail in the room showcases the cultural characteristics of Jiarong, from exquisite decoration to comfortable layout, making you feel at home. In the morning, waking up to the singing of birds, pushing open the window, fresh air rushed in, and before me was a dreamy and beautiful scenery. In the evening, stroll along the riverbank and enjoy the shimmering sunset on the water surface. Come to the Xiaoguanzhai homestay and encounter poetry and distant places within reach, bringing unprecedented relaxation and nourishment to your soul.

A pleasant surprise during the trip to Malkang. Subvert the stereotypes about accommodation conditions. The decoration is very unique, with ******* style dotted with European style, which is very harmonious. The Maillard color system looks textured and can withstand the passage of time. The room is well designed and laid out, and all the small items like table lamps and tea trays have been carefully selected, adding a lot of color. The overall hygiene is good. The service is especially good. The owner and his wife, as well as the staff, are all very warm and easy-going. Breakfast is ******* food, very simple, with butter tea, barley cakes, corn cakes and eggs. The butter is fresh, and I learned how to drink butter tea here, which is really delicious. We had two dinners in the restaurant, the ingredients were fresh and the taste was good. Located in a small town, it is not noisy at night and I slept soundly. Next year, I will choose this one again.

The hotel is very beautiful and the stay is very comfortable. It may be the most comfortable stay I have had in western Sichuan. Check-in was also very fast. It takes only 3 minutes to walk to the center of the ancient town. There are also cafes nearby.

I wanted to experience the ******* style, so I chose this one which is very distinctive, has decent hygiene, and a great surrounding environment! The first floor is the restaurant with its distinctive yak hotpot, as well as Western food, pizza and steak. It is very suitable for those with children, as it can cater to both! The breakfast is also very *******, with butter tea and cakes. The boss is very enthusiastic and highly recommended!

Escape from the continuous high temperature of 40℃ in Chengdu and go to Ma'erkang to escape the summer heat. This homestay is located in Zhuokeji Guanzhai, next to the river, and has a great atmosphere. You can eat, drink, drink coffee, etc. in the B&B. They have ******* food, pizza, pasta, and steak. You can have butter tea and tsampa for breakfast, which are full of local characteristics. Very satisfied with the stay!

The ******* style is quite unique, and the butter tea for breakfast is pretty good. The hygiene is average. There was a layer of dirt on the back of the bed, which I wiped myself. The wooden floor made a loud noise when I stepped on it when going to the toilet at night. When you open the window, you can see the Suomo River and the Xisuo houses. The scenery is nice.

- Decoration style: The interior and exterior decoration of the homestay incorporates red culture and chieftain culture, and has unique Jiarong cultural characteristics. The hotel is decorated in a unique ethnic style, which is magnificent and zen-like. The rooms are also luxurious and exquisite. The floor is a very nice wooden floor, which creaks when you step on it, giving you the feeling of an old house. - Room facilities: The room has heating and electric blankets, and a particularly large balcony with a great view. - Dining and Food: The pizza and fruit tea ordered from the restaurant on the first floor are also very delicious. - Surrounding environment: The homestay is located in the commercial street of Zhuokeji Town, Ma'erkang City, within the Zhuokeji Tusi Guanzhai Cultural Tourism Scenic Area. The Suomo River Grand Canyon is a famous red leaf scenic spot in Sichuan. Every autumn, the red leaves in the canyon are like clouds and the autumn forests are like screens, which are beautiful. The homestay is located on the local tourist pedestrian street, so it is very convenient for shopping and eating. - Geographical location: The B&B is located in Zhuokeji Town, Ma'erkang City, adjacent to the 4A-level scenic spot Zhuokeji Tusi Official Village. Zhuokeji Tusi Official Village was first built during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty (1918), destroyed by a fire in 1936, and rebuilt on the original site in 1938 by the then Tusi Suo Guanying. Guanzhai has five floors and 63 rooms in total. Each room has a different theme: introducing the history and stories of Tusi, Tusi system, various ******* folk customs, ******* Buddhism, etc. It is very suitable for people who like to understand the culture of ethnic minorities. In general, tourists have given high praise to Xiaoguanzhai B&B, believing that it is a distinctive B&B with not only a unique decoration style, complete room facilities and beautiful surrounding environment, but also good service quality. However, the specific stay experience may vary depending on personal needs and expectations. It is recommended that you check more guest reviews and detailed information before booking to make a more accurate choice.

The decoration style is very ethnic. I stayed here once a few years ago and I really like this Tibetan-style room and design. I give a thumbs up to the owner. Taibai Restaurant is downstairs. You can have pizza and steak for lunch, ******* yak hotpot for dinner, and drink some barley wine. It feels great. There is also a small balcony in the room. It is very pleasant to drink coffee while looking at the beautiful scenery outside. There is a parking lot at the door, which is very convenient and the location is easy to find. Next to it is Tusiguanzhai, where you can check in. I hope I can stay a few more days next time and visit all the attractions around Ma'erkang. Recommended accommodation

當在trip 上搜尋時,看到這間藏族風格的民宿,我們就訂了。真的,住進去發現裡面有藏族的收藏物,還有老闆娘的親切招待,還向我們介紹附近的景點。 對了,她還讓我們免費升等。 從這民宿還可以坐公交車到市區逛,是個讓人能放鬆心情的好民宿,謝謝!
