Northern Hot Springs
30 kilometers northeast of the Chongqing city, the Northern Hot Springs are in a large park at the foot of Jinyun Mountain, which is the site of a 5th century Buddhist temple. It covers an area of ten hectares with hot springs, caves, man-made rock formations and Buddhist Halls. It is regarded as one of the oldest developed hot spring resort, which is still in use at present.
The springs have an Olympic-sized swimming pool and private rooms for hot bath. Water temperature averages around 32 C(89.6 F). It is believed that the chemical elements contained in the water can help cure some diseases like Dermatitis, Rheumatism, Arthritis and Muscular Pain.
