Exploring the Wang Family Compound, Embracing Warm Moments at Wenjing Hotel

"Wang is a surname, a surname that represents half the nation; home is a courtyard, a courtyard that forms half a city." The moment I stepped into the Wang Family Compound, I was awestruck by its majestic grandeur. This "folk Forbidden City," built over 300 years during the Ming and Qing dynasties, boasts five lanes, six fortresses, and one street, with 123 courtyards and 1,118 rooms. Every brick carving, wood carving, and stone carving seems to whisper tales of the Wang family's past glory and profound cultural heritage. Wandering through the ancient alleys and touching the weathered walls, I felt as if I had traveled back in time to the era of the Jin merchants. The ticket offers great value—a 50-yuan combo pass grants access to four attractions: the Wang Family Compound, Wang Family Manor, Hongya Grand Canyon, and Gypsum Mountain. Seniors aged 60 and above even enjoy free admission. After exploring the Wang Family Compound, exhausted both physically and mentally, a cozy hotel becomes essential—and Wenjing Hotel was my perfect choice! Located right next to the compound's entrance, it’s just a short walk back to rest after a long day of sightseeing, a dream come true for the lazy traveler~ **Healing Moments Hidden in the Hotel** Stepping inside, the hotel beautifully blends ancient charm with modern comforts— - **"Energy Recharge Station" in the lobby**: Hawthorn plum juice, orange juice, tea, and coffee are available all day. A glass of iced hawthorn plum juice after sightseeing instantly melts away the summer heat and fatigue~ - **Surprise! A tea-boiling setup by the fireplace**: The hotel hides an elegant little corner with a charcoal stove and tea set. Roast chestnuts, peanuts, and red dates over the fire, listen to the crackling charcoal, watch the tea bubble, and chat with companions—the ambiance is simply magical! Whether sipping tea at dawn or gathering at dusk, it’s pure bliss~ **Rooms: A Perfect Mix of Smart Tech and Cozy Vibes** - **"Smart Room Control" for the lazy**: Lights, curtains, TV, and AC can all be voice-controlled via Tmall Genie from bed—no more fumbling for switches in the dark~ - **A detail-lover’s paradise**: Spotless cleanliness, gleaming mirrors, fresh green plants in the bathroom, and high-quality disposable amenities. The thoughtful touch of local snacks adds a taste of Shanxi~ - **"Family-like care" service**: This small but charming two-story hotel offers gentle touches like "someone carries your luggage," turning even stair-climbing into a "little joy of being pampered." The front desk staff proactively help plan itineraries, remind you of scenic area tips, and even adjust the charcoal fire for tea-boiling—every detail is covered with warmth~ If you visit the Wang Family Compound, Wenjing Hotel is a must on your itinerary! Spend the day immersed in the "folk Forbidden City’s" historical grandeur, then return to the hotel for fireplace tea sessions and smart room relaxation—this is the true art of travel~ #WangFamilyCompound #WenjingHotel #LingshiTravel #TravelGuide #FireplaceTeaTime
