Shan Zha Xiao Yuan is situated in Xiahujiao village of Yanqing District, Beijing. Bustling around the city built by armored concrete, people could give their mind and soul a respite here.

It was named after a hawthorn tree planted in the yard decades ago. When the late autumn comes, the ground will be carpeted with red squashy haw apples. The yard was adapted from an old house, designed by Jin Lei, a Chinese designer who studied in America.

There are four independent cottages in Hawthorn Yard, one with only one bedroom, one with three bedrooms, and two with two bedrooms. Each one is equipped with a living room and a kitchen. Your whole family can reserve one cottage and play chef in its gourmet kitchen. You will feel comfortable and happy just exactly as you are in your own country cabins.

Outside the Hawthorn Yard, the most beautiful road of Yanqing lies here. It must be a perfect self-driving route. Along the road, you are lucky to see Pearl Spring, Dishui Lake, Wetland Park, Silicified Wood National Geopark, and Yanshan Tianchi. It is definitely an art gallery full of scenic beauties.
