The slow life of Xizhou Ancient City begins at this homestay On a spring afternoon with perfect sunshine, I wheeled my luggage down the old streets of Xizhou Ancient City, flanked by quaint architecture with a faint floral scent in the air. Turning into a narrow alley, I found Shisu·Designer·Garden-Style Ancient Courtyard Homestay standing quietly, as if waiting for every traveler from afar. 🏡 A Tranquil Haven Amid the Bustle Located in the heart of Xizhou Ancient City, the homestay is surrounded by lively snack streets, yet stepping into the courtyard instantly brings peace and comfort.
