Old Yin Gentle's Inn

Returning Kids · Yin's Courtyard, Zhangjiajie Right beside the West Gate (Yangjiajie Ticket Office) of Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, it lets you step into a mountain forest wonderland in moments. Behind the homestay lies Qingfeng Gorge, a "hiking paradise" certified by the World Outdoor Sports Association. Every step here greets you with crisp bird songs and gurgling streams, and every breath fills you with negative ions. Surrounding it are world-famous scenic spots: the prototype of the floating mountains in the movie Avatar, classic filming locations of Journey to the West, the magnificent peaks of Tianzi Mountain, the steep plank roads of Wulong Village, the sky-high viewing platform of Huangshi Village, and the green waters and red cliffs of Jinbian Stream. Whether you're chasing movie memories or admiring natural wonders, you can fulfill it all here. A 5-minute drive from the homestay takes you to Zhonghu Market Town. Fresh ingredients in supermarkets, seasonal specialties in vegetable and fruit markets, and authentic Hunan-style restaurants meet daily needs. Municipal facilities like banks, hospitals, and courier services are all available, making your journey more convenient and worry-free. The homestay itself is a surprise hidden in the primeval secondary forest at the foot of the peaks. Renovated from a Tujia family's old house, its flower courtyard retains the rustic texture of Tujia stilted buildings. Wooden eaves and carved window lattices are full of ethnic charm—such well-preserved Tujia-style buildings are rare in this primitive wonderland. Stepping in feels like entering a time-honored Tujia home in western Hunan. With over ten guest rooms, it adheres to the concept of "mid-range price, high-end configuration" to create a comfortable resting space for every traveler. 24-hour hot water relieves travel fatigue, brand-name bedding offers cloud-like sleep, and high-end toiletries show attention to detail. Unique furnishings like western Hunan's "dripping beds" add local flair, turning rooms into small windows to experience western Hunan culture. Full indoor and outdoor WiFi ensures smooth communication. A meeting room caters to small team-building or business needs; a book bar with various books lets you read quietly to the sound of mountain winds. A chess room and a lounge are great for gatherings with friends; the Chinese restaurant serves authentic Tujia dishes; a self-service kitchen allows you to cook fresh ingredients. A laundry room and movie projection equipment add more convenience and comfort to your stay. Here, accommodation goes beyond a "place to stay"—it's an immersive lifestyle. Wake up to mountain dawns in the morning, sip tea among courtyard flowers in the afternoon, sit around to watch an old movie at night, or chat with the owner about Tujia stories. Every moment is healing and free, making it an ideal choice for sightseeing, family vacations, and friend gatherings.
