Huangshan Chuyuyuan Manjusu (Tunxi Old Street Scenic Area)

The hotel is located right in Tunxi Old Street and near to the bridge connecting to Li Yang Old Street. Tunxi sells most of the touristy souvenirs while Li Yang is more modern and trendy. The interior is well decorated, ancient Chinese vibe with some history behinds it. Room is clean and I was upgraded to a bigger room since the hotel was quite vacant during my stay. The lady boss is very friendly and helpful. She reminded me of my mum and I happened to be the same age as her daughter. But obviously we have a different life journey despite being the same age. She is a modern and understanding mum who gave her daughter support when she was vulnerable. Just like many of us who have to hustle in adulthood, our parents have to fend for themselves eventually. So spend time talking to her and she will make tea for you! I chatted with her for almost 2 hours over tea and pastry. I could have better spent it by exploring but I thought the human touch matters a lot too. Trust me, she loves talking to guests and is happy to help in anyway. Just ask her anything and share with her funny encounters. She recommended me to get some tea and haggled for a discount! It was lovely and unexpected of her to gift me some orange peels too! Fortunately I could speak and read Chinese, though not advanced. Chinese used to be my favourite subject in school but reality of the education system made me lost touch. There’s certainly a lot to learn about the Chinese culture, tea and also its art! I will return to this place again! And perhaps next time with a great person to see the chrysanthemum field!!!

Perfect location at the heart of ancient town, ease for shopping, sightseeing… convenient to take public bus to anywhere, Thanks for upgrading room and yummy dessert from the lady boss, whose very helpful all the time
