Huke Coffee Manor in Baoshan

The manor offers panoramic views of the majestic Nujiang River (怒江) and the surrounding coffee plantations. It is a high-end semi-mountain coffee manor hotel, where guests can enjoy breathtaking views of the towering mountains and coffee fields.

The name “Huke” derives from the sound “huke” made by the Gibbon (长臂猿) from the Gaoligong Mountain (高黎贡山) when they descend from the mountains to steal high-quality coffee fruits during the harvest season. This inspired the name for the coffee, as well as the logo, which is based on the face of a Gibbon, symbolizing the integration of ecological conservation and coffee culture.

With an investment of 45 million RMB and a total construction area of 8,000 square meters, the manor features high-end facilities such as boutique Dai-style guesthouses (傣楼民宿), star-view rooms (星空观景房), and tent hotels (帐篷酒店). It has significantly contributed to the development of the local tourism industry, providing more upscale accommodation options in the region, thereby promoting the upgrade of the Lujiang Bazi (潞江坝) wellness tourism industry.
