Pingdingshan is located in Shapingba, across the river from the main city of Chongqing, and is the closest ecological park to the city. The slightly strange name of the duck blood fan nest comes from the homonym of the name of the proprietress Zhou Yaxue. In 2017, Zhou Yaxue and her boyfriend appeared on Hunan Satellite TV's "Everyday Upward" column with the title of "The Most Beautiful Couple Homehost", which made the duck blood fan nest famous. The B&B also has a store in Ciqikou, but due to the limited scope, this list only introduces its Pingdingshan store.
"Small and warm" is the best description of duck blood fan nest. The duck blood vermicelli nest is a renovated house located on the top of Pingdingshan Mountain, and the walls, furnishings, furniture, etc. have a strong personal imprint. The exterior walls are painted with contrasting colours and unrestrained impressionist paintings. The restaurant consists of a small yard, kitchen, bistro and five guest rooms with two pet dogs. Each room has its own style, which is divided into five types: Qing comic style, fairy tale forest, time nostalgia, primeval forest, and simple Nordic style. While the name alone can be confusing, the rooms share some common features: contrasting colors and intricate visual elements add to the ambiance of the interior, but it also makes an already small space feel more crowded. Interestingly, the shopkeeper planted creepers all over the house, which not only looked verdant, but also served as a cooling effect.
The Duck Blood Vermicelli Den pub has several unique cocktails developed in-house, but its kitchen doesn't serve meals. Fortunately, there is a farmhouse not far from the store, and friends who don't want to go down the mountain to forage for food may wish to go. When booking a room, you need to add the "duck blood fan nest" public account, the room price is between 300 yuan / night and 450 yuan / night, which is cost-effective in the local suburban homestay, plus it is close to the urban area, which is a good choice for friends who come to Chongqing for sightseeing or come to feel the literary atmosphere.
