Hemu Resort (Shaxi Ancient Town Store)

The homestay is nestled in a natural village on the outskirts of Shaxi Ancient Town - a historic hub of the Tea Horse Road. Located approximately a 10-minute shuttle ride from the town's core scenic area, it faces the winding mountain ranges of the ancient caravan route and offers 180-degree unobstructed views of terraced fields.The front hall features Shaxi's characteristic rammed earth walls, while the Mountain Light Viewing Terrace provides panoramic vistas. Its undulating rooftop design mimics the serpentine paths of the Tea Horse Road, adorned with glazed tiles showcasing black pottery horses and caravan guides crafted by Jianchuan Black Pottery artisans (an intangible cultural heritage). These ceramic figures appear to journey across the rippling rooftop, recreating historical caravan scenes and allowing guests to immerse themselves in the cultural ambiance of the ancient trade route.
