Lesser-Known Natural Hot Springs

Jiuxian Hot Spring is well-known to the locals of Nanchang, but a relatively unknown natural spring for those outside the area. First, let's talk about Changtian Jiuxian Hot Spring Hotel, with prices ranging from 300-500, the overall value for money is acceptable. The hot spring itself costs around 100. The park-like distribution offers many options, and the overall hot spring experience is good. However, the mountainside layout may not be suitable for the elderly. … The accommodation and facilities are relatively new. The Chinese restaurant offers delicious and affordable dishes. The breakfast at the Western restaurant is also decent. … The kid-friendly atmosphere and relative privacy are definitely a plus. … Several peacocks roam freely on the lobby balcony. The children's play area includes painting, a ball pit, a doll room, and a play room. There is also a sand pit, building blocks, etc. Outside, there is a small square with a carousel (not open) and a slide. There are quite a few activities for families to enjoy. … The Western restaurant also has family-friendly activities, apparently on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Today is Monday, and we caught the cookie-making activity at the Western restaurant at 9:00 am. You can take the baked cookies with you. The kids were thrilled. … There is a tourist map in the hotel room, and we used it as a reference to visit a few places. The specific itinerary is as follows: Day 1: Arrived around 12:30 pm by car to check in. It's an hour and a half from Nanchang, so the distance isn't too far. Lunch at the Chinese restaurant (there is a small village nearby with food, but we didn't know much about it and didn't choose to go). Went to the hot springs at 2 pm. Dinner at the Chinese restaurant, then strolled around the hotel (or continued soaking in the pools). The hotel has a KTV, card room, cinema, gym, e-sports area, etc. … Day 2: Breakfast at 8 am. Participated in the family-friendly activity at the Western restaurant at 9 am. Played in the children's play area for a while. Check out. 1. Hot Spring Old Street is picturesque, but you can walk through it in about 10 minutes. You can see the old hot spring pools, and if you're lucky, you can see residents washing vegetables and dishes with the hot spring water. 2. Shixi Soviet Government Site (study base). It was closed today, so we just wandered around on our own. 3. Ming Dynasty Jimi Memorial Archway. Just a quick look, free, super small road that's difficult to drive on. 4. Baxian Waterfall (Luobotan). A one-and-a-half-hour tour, 50 entry fee. There are steps up and down, not difficult, but not recommended for elderly people with very weak legs. Drive slowly on the small road. 4. Former Site of Hualin Academy, in the mountains, free. Drive slowly on the small road. 5. Former Residence of Song Yingxing, Three Generations of Ministers Archway. There are many Ming and Qing buildings in the town, but they are old and dilapidated and not well maintained, free. Easy to drive on the main road.
