[2025 Changshu Stay] Travel Guide for Guli Hongdou Resort • Lake Lodge (Updated Jan)

Guli Hongdou Villa was built in the late Song and early Yuan dynasties, with a history of more than 700 years. The original buildings have disappeared, leaving only the red bean tree planted by Qian Qianyi and Liu Rushi in the Ming dynasty. Today, the villa has become a park full of history and culture, suitable for family trips, camping, and team building. Travel tips: Tickets are CNY 60 per person, and the heartbeat package is CNY 150 per person (including admission and 9 activities). We recommend buying the package, so you can enjoy the best activities at a lower price. Must-try activities: 1. Little Red Tower If you're not afraid of heights, this is a great place to take photos. The transparent glass walkway offers a panoramic view of the villa and the distant scenery. The heart-shaped island is very romantic. 2. You can also try the "high-altitude rafting", "high-altitude swing", and "bungee jumping" on the 1,314-meter-long glass slide. The package includes a raincoat. If you bring your own raincoat, make sure it's a two-piece set that covers you from head to toe. 3. Canyon Train Riding the train is like going back to childhood. It's like traveling through a mini Jurassic Park, with lush greenery and roaring dinosaurs. The colorful slide, go-kart adventure park, and butterfly-themed playground will keep you entertained. 4. Qian Liu Memorial Hall A memorial hall dedicated to the love story of Qian Qianyi and Liu Rushi. Don't miss the nearly 500-year-old red bean tree. 5. Romantic Boat House The villa has 22 boat houses, where you can enjoy the lake view and the moonlight over the lotus pond. The romantic night view of the villa is perfect for couples and families.

Today I'm going to share with you my recent travel experience at Red Bean Villa in Changshu! This time I went with friends, and we stayed at a guesthouse in the scenic area at night. It was truly an amazing experience! 👏✨ First of all, let me talk about my favorite Romantic Boat Wharf! From afar, the rooms look like small boats docked in the water, with the elegance of a Jiangnan water town. There are 18 double beds and 4 family rooms among the 22 rooms, giving you the feeling of sleeping on the lake, fully enjoying the tranquility of nature. 🛶🌊 The design of the family room is also very loving! Beautiful Tiffany color, full of design sense, spacious space. The room is fully equipped with amenities, and even the bathroom is in a romantic Malacca color. 💓🌈 In addition to accommodation, there are many other attractions and entertainment projects around Red Bean Villa! For example, Xingye Campsite, Qianliu Memorial Hall, Atomic Speed Skating, Slingshot Flying Man, Canyon Train, Jungle Crossing, Bee Spray Ball Car, etc. It's really hard to stop playing! 🎢🚀 Of course, food is also very important! If you dine in the scenic area, breakfast is relatively simple, and it would be better if it could be improved. However, overall, the trip was very enjoyable! 😋🍽️ Finally, let me recommend the Ting Shui Po Su Guesthouse where we stayed! The price is around 700+, and the address is 1-3 Red Bean Villa, Guli Town, Changshu. Although the price is a bit expensive, the environment and facilities are very good, and it is definitely worth a try! 💰🏡 Well, that's all for today's sharing! I hope it will be helpful to you! If you have the opportunity to visit Changshu, be sure to check out Red Bean Villa! 😊🌼
