Dalai Mountain, which is more than one hour's drive from downtown Chongqing, is about 800 meters above sea level, with mountains layered on top of each other, rich vegetation and a forest coverage rate of more than 70%. The temperature is 5-8° lower than that of the main city of Ping, and the original ecology is quite intact. In 2012, Wen Qingliang, who had just turned 50, returned to his hometown in Dalai Mountain, and began to build his own homestay on 500 acres of land in the village. Wen Qingliang took advantage of the forest resources of Dalai Mountain, and spent a year and a half to make 13 tree houses out of all wood. The wooden tree house blends into the mountain village and nature, which not only embraces the landscape, but also absorbs leisure, giving guests a more "immersive" natural scenery experience. This has made the brand of Diners Club Tree House famous in the Chongqing homestay industry.
There are 12 tree houses, 1 dragon egg tree house, 9 wooden house villas, and 1 apartment building, all of which are distributed in the forest, and the shadows of the trees in the forest fall on the thatched huts of the wooden houses, and the nearby trees and vegetation are preserved to the greatest extent during the construction, giving residents a sense of tranquility in nature. Each treehouse is located in a relatively flat and open area, with a solid foundation, maintaining security and bringing a wider view. It is worth noting that some treehouses are far away from the reception center and other treehouses, which is more private for groups such as couples, but for some female travelers, it may be insecure and it is recommended to avoid them. In addition to the regular treehouse, the store also built a "Dragon Egg Tree House" modeled after the Poke Ball House on Vancouver Island, Canada, with a spherical treehouse bathroom and bedroom that hangs in the air and offers a panoramic view of the surrounding forest. In recent years, the unit has been replaced with a better quality mattress, and the price has also risen, charging more than 1,000 yuan a night.
Despite being located in a primeval forest, the treehouse has all the amenities. The sheets are clean and tidy, and the wooden bed boards have a faint smell of wood; Each room is equipped with underfloor heating to keep you warm even in winter; The shower has an electric water heater and a full set of toiletries. However, due to the size of the bed, the 1.5-meter bed may be cramped for families with children. Outside the treehouse, there is a public space with benches, coffee tables, swings, hammocks, etc., where group activities such as barbecues and tea can be held. There are also forest trails nearby, and you can walk slowly along the forest paths, which is full of the atmosphere of a wild forest, but it is best not to stay away from the treehouse until you are familiar with the route, so as not to get lost.
There are many additional places to play on Diners Mountain, such as children's playground, lotus heart lake, Gesang flower field, blueberry farm, etc., which can enjoy different fun at different times of the year. It is worth recommending the blueberry orchard, which covers an area of several hundred acres, and because it grows in a pure natural environment at high altitude, the blueberries here are particularly fresh, and the sweet and sour taste is unsatisfying. Blueberry bushes can be found throughout the garden and are open to the public at the end of May each year, with no limit on the number of tickets available at 100 per person, but there is a discount on tickets purchased at the Treehouse Reception Centre. The treehouse restaurant located in the village is a place to solve the problem of three meals, and the products produced under the smoke-filled bungalow are not exquisite, but the fresh ingredients and rustic taste in the farmhouse make the dishes a lot of points, and the price is divided into two grades: 38 yuan/person and 68 yuan/person.
Due to the low degree of development of the scenic spot, the traffic from the urban area to Dalai Mountain is still not mature, so it is recommended to go by car. However, with curvy mountain roads, an SUV is more comfortable. For couples or families, it is recommended to choose a tree house with a unit price of 500 yuan to 900 yuan a night; For wooden houses with a large area and suitable for several families or company groups, the price is between 700 yuan and 1200 yuan.
