Great Places Near Chengdu｜Stay in a Starry Treehouse in Dujiangyan

It's been countless days of staying at home. As the weather gradually warms up, I miss the blue skies, white clouds, and the fragrance of birds and flowers outside even more. So on this beautiful March, I went with friends to the Antiman Resort in Dujiangyan to welcome the gentleness of spring.

It only takes an hour from Chengdu to reach the Antiman Resort in Dujiangyan. There is a vast expanse of green bamboo forest, an exciting outdoor playground, and at night you can watch the stars from the treehouse with friends—this is exactly the lifestyle we dream of.

The Endless Fun of Huba Bab Planet

Huba Bab Planet has many activities, suitable for both adults and children.

All facilities in the park are designed and built according to the ACCT (Association for Challenge Course Technology) standards, and the protective gear uses first-line brands of outdoor sports. With this assurance, you can play with confidence.

The entrance ticket to Huba Bab Planet is only 60 yuan. For families, there is a family package of 199 yuan for three people, including: zip line experience, rock climbing, archery, and trampoline.

Next, we arrived at the aerial zip line area, which I haven't experienced in a long time. But before going up, you need to climb this spiral staircase.

Before departure, staff will check your attire to ensure your shoes and clothes are suitable. Then they will help us put on the safety helmet and harness correctly.

The biggest highlight of the zip line is traveling through the bamboo forest, with a gentle breeze in your ears, the fleeting green mountains and bamboo groves before your eyes, and a panoramic view of the entire park—it's really thrilling.

The indispensable rock climbing event is quite challenging for first-timers. But after repeated practice, reaching the top gives a great sense of achievement.

After experiencing the thrilling high-altitude activities, kayaking on the water is not to be missed. With the coach's teaching and guidance, we quickly got the hang of it.

The moment we sat in the boat, it felt like discovering a new world. For the first time, I realized that kayaking is so simple and fun. Paddling in one direction is very easy, and I just wanted to keep going forward.

If you came here in summer, it would definitely be packed, but coming now is just right—not too hot.

What's commendable is that you can find all the activities you want to play in the park.

I have always loved archery, so as soon as I saw the sign, I headed straight there.

At the archery practice field, professional coaches guide us and correct our hand movements. Children between 1.2 meters tall and aged 6 to 14 need to be accompanied by a parent.

Archery is actually a very beneficial activity for physical and mental health, and for children, it's a good opportunity to exercise coordination and adjust their mindset and patience.

If there's one activity that can get you fired up quickly, it's go-karting. The children's track attracted many kids to try it, especially boys.

Boys who love racing must all have a dream of speed and passion, right?

There is also an indoor trampoline, which is simply a children's paradise.

At this moment, adults can enjoy their own slow life, while kids release their childlike innocence and play to their heart's content.

Of course, my friend and I also experienced the fun of the trampoline—it's been a long time since we had such relaxed fun, and we were really happy.

In addition to adventure activities, the resort also has photo spots that girls love.

Can't you just can't wait to come and take beautiful photos?

The children's playground, bubble pool, and other fun facilities also attract children's attention.

The hotel room design here is really unique, with distinctive design concepts. The simple lakeside star cabin has a diamond-shaped white exterior, each being a separate room, allowing you to enjoy your own quiet time.

Exquisite and Delicious Lock Bar Restaurant

After playing all day, we were starving. So near dusk, we went to the Lock Bar Restaurant for a hearty dinner.

I really like the dining environment here—modern design retains natural elements. With warm yellow lighting, it feels very cozy.

The restaurant's main dishes are Sichuan and Huaiyang cuisine, especially the plating, which is very exquisite.

Highly recommended signature Huaiyang dish: Ding汤 (Supreme Broth) with Matsutake and Embroidered Tofu Ball—it showcases the chef's amazing knife skills, and the soup is especially delicious.

The chicken pot here is also superb—the chicken is braised to perfection and goes extremely well with rice.

The spicy and numbing boiled beef is simply perfect. The beef is yellow cattle beef, very tender and smooth, and the more you eat, the more appetizing it becomes.

The Sichuan pepper-flavored pig tongue is fragrant and tasty, with a great texture.

Finally, a super photogenic peach mousse as dessert. It's refreshing and not too sweet, with a smooth texture similar to ice cream.

Staying in a Treehouse Amidst the Bamboo Forest

If we talk about the biggest feature of Antiman Resort, it's these unique rooms. There are multiple types: family rooms, forest cabins, treehouses, and star cabins.

When booking a room, the staff doesn't say a room number but instead tells you which zodiac sign room it is, which is eye-catching and makes you look forward to your room.

Following this path, you'll see various styles of rooms, each with different scenery. The room types are also specially designed based on geographic location and surrounding landscape.

We stayed in the Neptune Treehouse, surrounded by bamboo forests, with particularly fresh air.

Outside the room is a small balcony with bamboo chairs, where you can sit comfortably and feel the natural scenery—super comfortable.

As soon as we entered the room, we saw the mint green sofa chair paired with wooden flooring—very fresh and clean.

The room has a glass skylight and viewing windows. Lying on the soft little bed at night, you can look up and see the starry sky.

The hotel service is also very thoughtful, preparing complimentary snacks and mineral water in a delicate bamboo basket.

Another feature of the room is that there is no TV installed; instead, they place potted plants and books. This allows us to truly put down electronic devices and more purely experience the natural scenery.

Outside the room, there are various flowers and plants, and the air is filled with a faint floral fragrance, making your mood very cheerful.

In the evening, resting in the room and reading a book, then finally enjoying the beautiful starry sky—it's simply perfect.
