A week ago, I received an invitation from a good friend: Would you like to come to our Shiqian for a visit? I said yes in almost a second, and set a departure time.

Without him, because I have really longed for Shiqian Ancient Hot Spring for a long time. Shiqian Ancient Hot Spring is one of the oldest hot springs in China and is said to have a history of more than a thousand years.

Guizhou is a province rich in hot spring resources, and I have been to several in the urban area of ​​Guiyang alone. But in the eyes of most Guizhou people, especially our fathers, the first thing that comes to mind when talking about hot springs in Guizhou is Shiqian Ancient Hot Spring.

Therefore, for a Guiyang person who has been to many hot spring scenic spots at home and abroad, even if there is no invitation from friends this time, a trip to Shiqian Ancient Hot Spring is imperative.

I really went to Shiqian Ancient Hot Spring, I just felt that it was too late to meet each other, and it was a veritable hot spring business card in Guizhou. In addition to the expected natural ancient hot springs, there are also huge surprises beyond imagination!

Next, follow my memories and photos and embark on a novel journey of Shiqian Ancient Hot Spring.

DAY. 01 itinerary

Guiyang—Shiqian Ancient Hot Spring

Departing from Guiyang after breakfast, I chose to drive by myself. Route: Enter Guiweng Expressway from Guiyang North Station—Weng’an (transfer to Anjiang Expressway)—get off at the intersection of Shiqian Station—go straight to the end of Quannongting Bridge—that is, to Shiqian Ancient Hot Spring). The 186-kilometer journey was neither fast nor slow, and we arrived at our destination in more than two hours.

I booked the rooms of Shiqian Hot Spring Resort Hotel online in advance, and the cheapest room was 460 yuan. If you come, I also recommend staying in this hotel in the scenic area. Although the price seems a bit expensive, the rooms are high-end and high-end, so you can stay at ease.

Each room also gives two tickets to Shiqian Ancient Hot Spring + Water Park, and breakfast for two people, so it is super cost-effective to share it all.

When I went there, I was still in the special period of the epidemic. It was necessary to wear a mask, take a temperature measurement, rub my hands with antiseptic hand sanitizer, and scan the QR code every day to register my health status and provide a Guizhou health code.

Although the process is a bit complicated, but this is so reassuring!

Meals are also delivered to the room, spicy and fresh, a different flavor of Guizhou cuisine.

After lunch, take a good night's rest, and then we head to the hot springs! The dressing room is spacious and bright, with a simple yet stylish design, and I am particularly satisfied with the fact that there is no musty smell from the tide.

After entering the hot spring area, I jumped up and down like a monkey, in stark contrast to my friend's calm attitude. I clearly felt her "disgust" for me. I came here for the first time, and she has been here with friends from other places N times, like her own back garden.

Everything in front of me surprised me, and I wanted to jump into every bubble pool I met on the way! Red flower pool, ginseng pool, moss tea pool, fame and fortune pool, sandalwood pool... more than 130 pools, how long does it take to soak.

Kissing fish therapy, which requires an additional fee, can relieve fatigue and treat illnesses.

The bathing pools of Shiqian Ancient Hot Springs are "hidden" in the undulating dense green forest, which is quite interesting. My friend said that the hot spring water here is not only for bathing and health preservation, but also one of the few that can be drunk directly, so I went to the drink point and drank it, and it felt sweet and delicious.

We soaked it for two or three hours, and the hands and feet didn't wrinkle at all, which is really amazing.

In addition, I think the magical place is the water park. It is not surprising that there are water parks in hot spring scenic spots, but unexpectedly, the water park here uses hot spring water! The weather in the past two days is also good, and it will not feel cold to play in the water park.

Because there are too many pools, we can't finish soaking in one afternoon, so we went again in the evening. The Shiqian Ancient Hot Spring under the cover of night is another scene.

Domineering national standard swimming pool, if you don't swim for two laps, you will lose money.

Before leaving, I went to the nearby health club to experience it. Massage, oil pushing, wooden barrel bath... everything is available. You can watch movies while enjoying the service. It is as good as the health club in the city.

The adjustment of the hot spring, plus the body massage, relax the body and mind. After rinsing and returning to the hotel room, my friend reminded me to go to bed early and wake up very early tomorrow. I asked her what time it was, and she said 5 o'clock.

5 o'clock? Why did I wake up so early, but my friend pretended to be mysterious and didn't tell me... Well, it's up to you.

Day 02 Itinerary

Shiqian Hot Spring Resort Hotel—Fairy Street—Guiyang

The entire itinerary on the second day was completely beyond my imagination, and it also overturned my basic understanding that I can only soak in hot springs in Shiqian.

I didn’t know before that there is such a good entertainment place full of amazing experiences as “Xianren Street” in Shiqian Ancient Hot Spring Scenic Area, which is a 30-minute drive away (we encountered road construction when we went there, and it took 50 minutes to detour). .

Let's talk about tickets first. Recently, it happened to be the flowering period of the 10,000-acre slate azalea, and the scenic spot launched a vigorous discount activity. Originally, the price of a two-person pass was 598 yuan, but it only cost 308 yuan when we went.

We got up early just to go to Xianren Street to watch the sunrise over the sea of ​​clouds. But the sunrise time is too short, so I was so excited that I didn’t have time to take pictures, so let me show you the pictures of the sea of ​​clouds!

Spectacular! magnificent! wonderland! When I was on the scene, my mind was shocked to a blank, all rhetorical techniques disappeared, and only these few words kept flashing.

The Shengui Wangyue Observation Deck is the best place to watch the sunrise on Xianren Street. Standing on the observation deck, you can have a panoramic view of the beautiful scenery of Shiqian County. The sunrise, sea of ​​clouds, terraced fields, mountains, rivers, ancient cities and the high-altitude project of Xianren Street are all in sight. One is not a beautiful picture.

Immortals going out to sea, cliff swings, startling every step of the way, crossing fairy bridges... Each is more thrilling and frightening than the other.

Friends, promise me, don't be afraid, okay? Even if you have the courage to try it, don’t worry about your safety, the fun is just walking on the clouds and not daring to pant!

In addition to the "big" thrilling items above, there are also some relatively "small" amusement facilities in the Xianren Street Scenic Area. Pirate ships, swinging umbrellas, Shenzhou flying saucers, etc.

In the southwest of Xianren Street, there is the world's largest original ecological stone slab Yingshan Red Flower Sea, which has been officially opened. Friends who like flowers and plants must come and see, what is the real original ecological flower sea!

The dining place on Xianren Street is also unique, it is a "cliff restaurant". There are many types of dishes, and the prices are affordable and affordable. It is perfect for those who continue to eat to replenish their energy after playing until they are exhausted.

After lunch, after a short rest, I said goodbye to my friends and set foot on the journey back to Guiyang.

This trip to Shiqian Ancient Hot Spring and Xianren Street brought me a wonderful memory worth remembering for life.

In addition to being satisfied, I also hope that more people will know that in my hometown of Guizhou, there are two scenic spots, Shiqian Ancient Hot Spring and Xianren Street. The tour experience of these two places is no worse than that of the same type of scenic spots abroad, with resources, hardware and services! This is definitely not a blind exaggeration, everyone is welcome to play~
