Relax in the hot springs at your leisure time

The weather is sometimes hot and sometimes cold, and it is best to go to the hot springs when the temperature drops. But I prefer to go in the off-season. What is it like to soak in hot springs in June and July? This time we went to a hot spring resort in Zijin County, Heyuan City, Guangdong Province, a comprehensive resort that mainly uses natural hot springs and integrates the style of Bali in Southeast Asia. Tourists from Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao prefer to come here for leisure and vacation. 📍 Location: Reshui Village, Jiuhe Town, Zijin County, Heyuan City, Guangdong Province 🌿 Surrounding environment: Located in the mountains, surrounded by pristine forests, with fresh air and quiet environment. ♨️ Hot spring features: It is a natural geothermal hot spring with a water temperature of up to 86°C. Most of them are sulfate springs or bicarbonate springs. They are rich in sulfur, metasilicic acid, fluorine, lithium, radon and other minerals. They have health and therapeutic effects such as relieving fatigue and beautifying the skin. The source is now fenced off and is open to the public only. The hot spring water we finally soaked in was transported to various hot spring pools through pipes. After being cooled, the water temperature was mostly between 33-42℃, which is very suitable for human body sensation. Our hands and feet would not get wrinkled after soaking for a long time, which is quite good. The resort has three hot spring areas: river hot springs, pastoral hot springs and mountain hot springs. There are many flowers planted in Tianyuan Hot Spring. 🍀 Pool design: There are probably dozens of hot spring pools of different styles, with many choices of sizes, such as open-air hot springs, petal pools, medicinal bath pools... Some areas are decorated with traditional Balinese architecture and sculptures, full of exotic style, and are quite nice for taking pictures. 🏨 Supporting services and entertainment 🛏️ Accommodation: There are villa areas, suites and standard rooms.
