Qingyuan Private Hot Spring Secret Tested! Yin Zhan Junlan Hides a Breathing Hot Spring Slow Life

As a travel enthusiast who has checked into over 20 hot spring hotels in a year, the "Yin Zhan Junlan Hot Spring Hotel" I discovered in Qingyuan Yin Zhan Valley is truly a "recharging mystery box" for Pearl River Delta workers! Driving 2 hours from Shenzhen through a bamboo tunnel, suddenly white walls and black tiles wrapped in hot spring mist unfold before your eyes. A real experience of three days and two nights soaking in hot springs, hiking, and tasting wild mountain flavors must be shared straight from the camera— 🏡 Zen-inspired living in a private hot spring courtyard, detail lovers will be warmed enough to want to stay forever I chose the "Yunqi Terrace Room" with a private hot spring. Opening the door, I was struck by the soaking pool on the bluestone terrace: bamboo tea seats and rustic pottery lanterns are placed by the poolside. At night, brewing a pot of Yingde black tea while soaking, watching the mountain mist drift in through the bamboo gaps✨. The room features minimalist new Chinese design, with solid wood furniture and linen bedding. The most touching detail is the "hot spring spa bathtub" in the bathroom. Sprinkling the hotel's handmade mugwort bath balls, after soaking, every inch of skin feels like it's breathing! The butler quietly brings warm longan and red date tea, this subtle and thoughtful care instantly wins great favor~ ♨️ A forest healing matrix composed of 28 pools, soak from sunrise to starfall The hotel hot spring area is like a breathing three-dimensional garden: the "Flower Shadow Spring" hidden under the wisteria trellis, petals floating into the pool create a natural soft light filter for photos; the "Herbal Spring" with angelica and poria simmering emits a fragrant medicinal aroma, soaking for 15 minutes makes you sweat profusely; the most amazing is the mountaintop "Sky Mirror Pool," the mirror-like pool bottom reflects the sunset, as if soaking in clouds flavored like orange soda☁️. Highly recommend soaking at 7 a.m., when the thin mist drifts over the pool surface, you can enjoy a whole fairyland awakened by birdsong! 🍲 A fresh flavor explosion from mountain to table, local secret menu revealed Breakfast must-have is the freshly made "Qingyuan Knife-Cut Rice Cake," soft and glutinous rice cake soaked in shredded pork soup, sprinkled with local bamboo shoots so fresh it makes you stomp🥢. For lunch at the lakeside Chinese restaurant, I ordered the signature "Sauna Boneless Fish," the fish steamed to a jelly-like tenderness, drizzled with lime juice to remove fishiness and enhance freshness; for dinner, I tried the "Beijiang Fish and Mutton Hot Pot," with a milky white broth for dipping Anhui fish slices and mutton rolls, drinking three bowls of soup was just right! The biggest surprise was the hot spring afternoon tea, mugwort green rice balls paired with cold brew Yingde black tea, sitting in the bamboo pavilion watching mountain sparrows pecking—this is what a vacation should be like~ 📝 In-depth experience tips (hidden ways to save 30% budget) 1.
