Early Winter at Banyan Tree Nanjing Garden Expo Park|A Warm Winter Zen Luxury Time in the Secret Mineral Valley

As the frost and mist of early winter in Jiangnan drift over the Tangshan mineral valley, Banyan Tree Nanjing Garden Expo Park, nestled in the heart of the park, is becoming the ultimate luxury winter retreat with its triple charm of "mining pit wonders + private hot springs + Chinese Zen elegance." Room Options: Mineral View and Private Hot Spring, Dual Zen Luxury Experience - Couple’s Top Choice · Mineral View Private Hot Spring Villa: The core popular room type, featuring a private courtyard design with a 24-hour constant temperature private hot spring pool. Open the window to see the mineral valley cliffs and bamboo sea. The room is equipped with Atelier Cologne toiletries, smart toilet, independent round bathtub, welcome fruits, and health teas. Private and romantic, you can soak in the private hot spring while admiring the starry mineral valley at night. - Family Trip · Garden View Two-Bedroom Villa: Spacious (about 120㎡) with two bedrooms and a living room layout. The courtyard includes a private hot spring pool and a children’s play area. Equipped with children’s toiletries and a baby crib (reservation required). The living room has a viewing terrace, perfect for the whole family to enjoy a warm winter. The Garden Expo Park Children’s Playground is a 10-minute walk away. - Cost-Effective Choice · Mountain View Room: Entry-level luxury room located on the upper floors of the main building, overlooking the park’s forest and tea garden. Fully equipped with King Koil mattress, Dyson hairdryer, Nespresso capsule coffee machine, and more. Relatively affordable, ideal for quality-seeking solo travelers or friends traveling together. - Luxury Choice · Presidential Villa: Over 300㎡ with a separate living room, dining room, study, and a large courtyard. Private hot spring pool paired with an outdoor swimming pool. 24-hour dedicated butler service. Private chef available for Huaiyang cuisine and health banquets. Suitable for high-end vacations or business receptions. Private Hot Spring Warm Winter: Healing Time Nourished by Mineral Springs - Villa Private Hot Spring: The independent pool in the courtyard offers strong privacy and adjustable water temperature. Paired with rose bath salts, mugwort bags, or bamboo charcoal bags provided by the hotel, soaking leaves you warm and relaxed, relieving travel fatigue. - Public Hot Spring Area: Multiple outdoor pools such as Bamboo Shadow Pool and Mineral Spring Pool, built along the mountain and surrounded by bamboo forests and greenery. Soaking in the morning or evening while listening to the wind through bamboo and birdsong, breathing fresh air, is extremely pleasant. - Hot Spring Facilities: After soaking, you can relax in the sauna or stone slab bath, or enjoy health drinks like ginger tea, white fungus soup, and osmanthus rice wine at the hot spring bar, warming both heart and stomach. Gourmet Luxury: Huaiyang Flavors and Mineral Valley Wellness - Breakfast: Freshly made authentic Nanjing duck blood vermicelli soup, crab roe soup dumplings, and bamboo shoot shumai. Western-style truffle scrambled eggs and smoked salmon are exquisite and luxurious. Unlimited coffee, fresh juice, and health porridge to start your day full of energy. - Lunch/Dinner: “Green Source Restaurant” features Huaiyang health banquets with signature dishes like braised lion’s head meatballs, fish head stew, and stir-fried winter bamboo shoots with cured meat. Fresh ingredients and rich nutrition. “Banyan Pavilion” offers high-end Huaiyang cuisine and creative dishes in an elegant environment, suitable for anniversaries or business dinners. Recommended dishes include slow-cooked beef and crab roe tofu. - Afternoon Tea: The early winter limited health afternoon tea at the “Lobby Lounge” is a must-try. A three-tier silver stand filled with Chinese snacks like osmanthus cake, walnut crisp, dried bamboo shoot crisp, and Western desserts like chestnut mousse and cranberry tart, paired with bamboo-scented milk tea or osmanthus oolong. Sitting by the floor-to-ceiling window enjoying the mineral valley view is warm and healing. Leisure and Relaxation: Dual Healing of Zen and Nature - Spa Center: The signature “Banyan Tree SPA” offers various health therapy treatments. Early winter recommendation is the “Mineral Spring Soothing SPA,” using local bamboo charcoal and mugwort, combined with meridian massage and mineral hot compress to relieve muscle soreness, leaving you feeling light and refreshed. - Fitness and Pool: The 24-hour gym is fully equipped with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the mineral valley mountain view, allowing you to feel the natural atmosphere while exercising. The indoor heated pool (28℃) has clear water, surrounded by greenery and lounge chairs. After swimming, you can relax in the sauna. - Outdoor Experience: The hotel surroundings have exclusive mineral valley trails for hiking to admire cliffs, bamboo seas, and tea gardens while breathing negative ions. You can also book a Garden Expo Park tour to visit popular spots like the underwater botanical garden, cliff theater, and Pioneer Bookstore. At night, gather around the courtyard stove to brew tea, paired with nuts, tangerines, and rice cakes, chatting warmly and comfortably. This Chinese-style manor built on an abandoned mine pit perfectly blends the grandeur of cliff walls, the tranquility of bamboo sea tea gardens, and the elegance of blue tiles and white walls. Watching the mineral valley morning mist at dawn, soaking in the private hot spring to warm up in the afternoon, and falling asleep under the stars at night, every moment reveals the warmth and serenity of early winter.
