The natural scenery of Ruzhou Hot Spring Scenic Area

Since ancient times, hot springs have been treasures of Feng Shui, and their natural scenery is unique. Especially the "Hot Spring Xiaoji" in the winter morning is one of the eight major scenic spots in Ruzhou. Every morning, the radiant heat overflows from the hot springs and steams up, just like the first spring rain or a fairy bathing in the waves. The scenery is gorgeous and full of interest. Zhang Zheng, a Jinshi of the Yuan Dynasty, wrote a poem praising: "The dawn is coming and the sun is rising late. The hot spring water is smooth and warm and regenerates muscles. *Except under the pine and sandalwood where it starts, it is like going to Yuyi in the past." One kilometer west of the hot spring is Guguang Chengze. It was a hunting place for emperors of all dynasties. Today, there is a Xianshan Reservoir, which is known as Guangcheng Lake. The lake is vast and cruise ships shuttle around it, attracting many tourists. In Hubei, there are Jiulong Mountain, Jinding Mountain, Luanjia Mountain and Kongtong Mountain. It is said that the immortal Guangchengzi practiced Taoism here. Emperor Xuanyuan once came to Xiangguangchengzi to seek advice. In addition, the geological structure of the hot spring scenic spot is unique: Archean, Proterozoic, Paleozoic, Mesozoic, and Cenozoic strata are distributed, igneous rocks, sedimentary rocks, and metamorphic rocks are fully exposed, and fault structures are fully developed. It is a natural geological museum. "Hot spring sacred water, natural scenery and historical relics" are the typical features of hot spring scenic spots. The hot spring scenic area has complete service facilities, numerous hotels and restaurants, and many sanatoriums and resorts. It has the basic conditions to provide tourists with food, accommodation, transportation, travel, shopping and entertainment.
