What it’s good at
Listed
A timber Grandmother's House preserves ritual hearths and traditional matrilineal storytelling.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Walking paths lead into Mosuo Town, and the forested slopes of Gemu Goddess Mountain rise directly behind the property.
The rooms
Balconies have rammed-earth walls and carved reliefs. Inside, rich reds and purples echo traditional Mosuo dress.
At the table
The skylit dining room draws on the historic Tea Horse Road, serving regional Mosuo dishes and seasonal hot pot.
