Discovered a hidden gem in Shenzhen's Pingshan! Slow down time in a century-old Hakka house

Found this B&B called "ANXIAO INNXIAO" in Pingshan that truly embodies slow living! Tucked away at No.5 Henglong Road (just search the name for navigation) - the moment you push open the door, the charm of this blue-brick-and-black-tile ancestral house makes you want to stay forever! The courtyard suite is absolutely stunning! Converted from an authentic Hakka dwelling, it preserves vintage elements like carved wooden cabinets and rammed earth walls that blend seamlessly with modern sofas and warm lighting. The tatami tea area deserves special praise - brew tea here while watching greenery sway and water trickle outside the window, with occasional mist floating by like living in a painting ☁️ Rooms spacious enough to dance in! Cloud-soft beds guarantee instant sleep, while the oversized bathtub leaves you completely refreshed. The floor-to-ceiling windows are the real showstopper - dappled courtyard light by day, stargazing from bed by night ✨ This is what "escapism" should feel like! Service details will delight perfectionists! Welcome fruits upon arrival, breakfast with freshly ground coffee that warms the soul (their house-roasted beans paired with handmade pastries are irresistible). The super-friendly owner even helps plan local itineraries - none of that "instagrammable B&B" pretentiousness! More ways to enjoy! The property features a bamboo-reflecting pool (ultra-soothing), tea pavilion (sip while listening to the wind), and Goldfish Creek (full of little surprises). Next door at Huilong Shiju, check out "HAKKA Coffee" - another photogenic courtyard transformed from old houses, perfect for snapping pics before returning for delicious skewers! Verdict: Shenzheners' secret escape from fast-paced life! The nostalgic charm of old houses meets modern comfort - one night here and you'll want to move in permanently!
