Amidst a landscape painting composed of lofty mountains and flowing streams, terraced fields wind around in layers, filling the air with the fragrance of rapeseed flowers. Vast expanses of bright yellow stretch as far as the eye can see. Paired with the well-spaced, black-and-white Huizhou-style architecture, it feels as though one is immersed in an ink-wash poetic scene. Mr. Li from Beijing and his family walk along the rural paths of Wuyuan, frequently marveling at the scenery around them, deeply enchanted by the beautiful views.
This year during the Qingming holiday, Mr. Li decided to escape the annoying smog and go flower viewing in Wuyuan, known as "China's most beautiful village." However, this time he didn’t choose a local hotel in Wuyuan but opted for a vacation apartment that could accommodate his family of three. "The vacation apartment has plenty of space for the three of us, offers strong privacy without being disturbed by others, and most importantly, after enjoying the scenery in Wuyuan, we can also buy some local specialties and cook in the apartment ourselves. It’s a really enjoyable experience—my wife and child both love it here."
Multiple advantages win favor with tourists
Not just Mr. Li—after the travel market entered the spring outing and flower viewing season, more and more tourists are trying out this fresh way of traveling by staying in vacation rentals.
Ms. Li from Shanxi, who works away from home, has always wanted to take a high-quality trip with her parents, but unfortunately, the high prices of hotels have often dampened the enjoyment of their trips. This year during the Qingming holiday, Ms. Li chose Chongqing as her destination and decided to stay in a vacation rental. After multiple comparisons and careful consideration, she booked a luxurious and elegant two-bedroom suite at Xie Xin Mansion through HowToTrip. "We can stay together as a family, and it only costs 368 yuan per night—the price of a single room in a five-star hotel. I didn’t expect the room to be so cheap yet so nice; it’s truly great value for money!" said Ms. Li.
"It’s especially convenient here—not only is the transportation and surrounding infrastructure well-developed, but it’s also right next to the famous Jiefangbei shopping center, and close to Luohanshi Temple, People’s Park, and the Hongya Cave tourist area. It allows us to explore Chongqing more easily and experience the unique culture of the city."
Becoming a fashionable new favorite by following the trend
Nowadays, the number of family trips, as well as those with friends or colleagues traveling together, is increasing. These have become important ways for people to relax and strengthen familial and friendship bonds. Compared to traditional hotels, vacation rentals not only offer strong cost advantages, but more importantly, people traveling together seek a new type of accommodation different from traditional hotels—and HowToTrip apartments, which meet this need, have thus become a fashionable new favorite for travelers.
