An oasis of peace and tranquility in the Yangshuo countryside
The
Snow Lion Riverside Resort is my favorite Yangshuo resort. The Snow Lion Resort is where
you would want to go for a relaxing holiday. Here's why.
The Snow Lion Resort is located 10 minutes outside Yangshuo along the Li
River near Mushan village, east of Yangshuo town center. The resort
is owned by William Lu and his wife Linda Liang. The name Snow
Lion Resort refers to the nearby hill top with the name Snow Lion.
The resort is brand new, it was opened only in 2006 (see the
story of the building of the Snow
Lion Resort). With its 30 spacious
rooms, the Snow Lion. The resort is located near the Li River with Mushan
village in walking distance. The resort has 30 very spacious rooms and all
have private balcony.
What do people say about the Snow Lion Riverside Resort?
But what makes this resort better and nicer then other resorts? First of all
the location nearby Page Boy Hill, the Snow Lion Hill and the Green Lion
Hill is spectacular.
The first thing that immediately catches they eye is the way the hotel has
been build. The architecture of the hotel is different from any other hotel
in Yangshuo or even in China.
With a spacious rooftop terrace you can have your own private
party up here, complete with a barbecue.

My room when I stayed in the Snow Lion Resort
The Snow Lion Resort has wireless internet facilities so
you can bring your laptop computer and work in the spectacular scenery.
Contrary to most hotels, rooms on the back have an equally spectacular
view (though not on the river) as rooms on the front. If all the front rooms
are full booked, do not be disappointed, your view on the back is great too.

How about eating in the Snow Lion Resort? The bar, cafe, restaurant is
great. I spend some time in the Snow Lion and I was pleasantly surprised by
the quality of the food.
A great choice for your breakfast would be the Snow Lion Breakfast. It
contains of a bowl of noodles with vegetables, meat and fried egg plus
steamed buns and honey and coffee or tea as you wish.
Western meals are, of course, also available.
Lunch and dinner are available. William and Linda have an excellent chef
who prepares for example great claypot noodles, steamed dumplings and many
other dishes.
And in case you want
to organize a barbeque, either in the garden or on the roof top, the Snow
Lion Resort has these facilities also available.
No need to get bored at the Snow Lion Resort. William and Linda have a
series of activities for you available. Read more about the
Snow Lion Resort activities here.

The history of the Snow Lion Resort
The Snow Lion Resort is the fulfilling of a dream of William and Linda.
But the process of building a resort of this quality was not an easy
process. William provided us with some pictures of the building process and
the story of the building of the Snow Lion Resort.
