On the one hand,it’s not what I am used to, usually staying at farms with no plumping or bathrooms. On the other hand, now that Wuyi is made into a tourist attraction, these hotels are quite comfortable. For China standards, this is a 8 star hotel, since some of the 5 star ones are horrific. Definitely can take some of you on the next trip if all we do is Wuyi and Hangzhou. The remote farms I go are not for the faint of hearted or anyone who is slightly used to modern comforts. No, it’s not like camping. It’s like living in 12th century China.
But here at Wuyi this morning, few tourists, clear skies, crisp air, clean hotel, decor not gaudy, no one spitting, no trash in sight, nothing broken and scotch-taped up…I give myself permission to be comfortable for a few minutes.
