Donghai Hot Spring has a long history and a well-known reputation. As early as the Longqing period of the Ming Dynasty, there were records of "like soup in winter and summer." The Qing Dynasty's "Jiaqing Haizhou Zhilizhou Chronicle" states: "Forty miles south of the city is a mountain called Jinniu Mountain, and there is a spring south of the mountain, which is warm in winter and summer." During the Daoguang period, Xu Guilin praised it as a "famous scenic spot." In 2012, Donghai Hot Spring Tourist Resort was awarded the title of "Jiangsu Provincial Tourist Resort," providing all-round high-quality services such as catering, accommodation, bathing and health preservation, fitness and entertainment, and business negotiation for tourists from inside and outside the province. Donghai Hot Spring Tourist Resort, known as the "Hometown of Hot Springs in China," is a place where mountains and rivers depend on each other, with beautiful scenery, abundant products, and outstanding people. It has rich cultural and tourism resources. The mountain here is Yushan Mountain, which is magical and prominent. It is 3 km long from east to west, 1.5 km wide from north to south, and 269.5m above sea level. It is a famous cultural mountain in the Chinese mythology system. The "Ji Gun Yushan" recorded in the "Shan Hai Jing" and "Shang Shu" is the legendary birthplace of Dayu. The water here is hot spring water, which is graceful and included in the British "Concise Encyclopedia Britannica." It is named "Fluorine-silicon composite hot mineral water" and is a rare fountain of youth. At present, Donghai Hot Spring Tourist Resort is closely focused on the goal of "Hometown of Hot Springs in China, a Paradise for Health and Leisure," and has embarked on a new journey of creating a national-level tourist resort. Looking to the future, Donghai Hot Spring Tourist Resort relies on its unique resource advantages, integrates and optimizes element allocation, and is determined to improve the construction of a first-class health and leisure resort in East China, and focus on carefully building China's "No. 1 Hot Spring Township."

Driving or chartering a car is also a good choice, but note that the attractions are scattered, and the cost of chartering a car is approx. CNY 300/day. • Sun Protection and Clothing: In summer, bring sunscreen, sunglasses, and light long sleeves. In winter, you will need a thick coat and non-slip shoes. • Shopping Tips: There are many fakes in the crystal market, so it is recommended to buy from regular stores and ask for a certificate. Beware of "low-price tour" scams and give priority to officially partnered travel agencies. • Special Tips: Some attractions are greatly affected by the weather (such as Yuntai Mountain by the Sea, which is often foggy), so it is recommended to check the weather forecast in advance. During holidays, attractions such as Huaguo Mountain and Liandao Island are crowded, so it is recommended to travel during off-peak hours.

I have heard that there is a Mingtang Mountain suitable for the elderly and children 2 hours away from Wuhan. Mumu's grandfather has participated in the mountaineering conference here for several consecutive years. This time, the whole family came to climb the mountain together. Mumu is four and a half years old. Walking this hidden autumn viewing route is both beautiful and interesting👇 ⛰️Qingsongling Short Loop (3 hours) [Gate➡️Scenic shuttle bus➡️Qingsongling No. 2 cableway➡️Qingsongling loop plank road➡️Main peak viewing platform➡️Qingsongling No. 2 cableway➡️Glass drifting➡️Scenic shuttle bus➡️Gate] 🔶The feature of this route is that there is no need to walk on any steps. It is suitable for families with elderly people and babies. It is a pure loop hiking tour. The mountain plank road is particularly comfortable to walk. The view along the way is wide, and you can enjoy the strange pines and red leaves, as if you are in an autumn wonderland! There is also the main peak viewing platform. This viewing platform has few tourists, but it is a great location to view the main peak and it is easy to take pictures! ⛰️Qingsongling short loop + main peak scenic area (5 hours) [Qingsongling short loop➡️Upward main peak plank road➡️Main peak high-altitude tourist area➡️Downward main peak plank road➡️Qingsongling No. 2 cableway➡️Glass drifting➡️Scenic shuttle bus➡️Gate] 🔶If you have good physical fitness, after playing in Qingsongling, you can hike to the main peak scenic area. It takes about 1 hour to climb. Mumu and grandpa and grandma love sports every day, so they have no problem with physical strength. The main peak tourist area has the Lover's Pine, the Glass Plank Road, the Cliff Café, the Glass Bridge, the Cliff Swing, the Internet-famous Suspension Bridge, the Echo Platform, and many other check-in spots. Standing among the majestic mountains, it is extremely shocking! 🚗Travel: It takes 2.5 hours to drive from Wuhan. There are not many mountain roads and they are not winding, so the probability of motion sickness is relatively low. 🏨Accommodation: There are many homestays outside the scenic area. We stayed in a hotel inside the scenic area, which was booked on xc for 230 yuan per night. 🍚Food: There are more than a dozen farmhouses outside the gate. I tried three of them. The food tasted good and the price-performance ratio was also okay. 📌Tips: 🔺It is recommended to buy a package ticket. It is autumn outing season, the glass bridge and glass plank road are free, and children under 1.2 meters in height are free of charge, which is suitable for taking children out for a walk. 🔺There is a large free parking lot at the gate, and nearby villagers sell roasted sweet potatoes, wild fried chestnuts, fruits, etc. 🔺The temperature difference between morning and night is large, so you need to bring both thin and thick coats. You can wear short sleeves when it is hottest during the climb (we wore too much) 🔺

Taking advantage of the off-peak tourist season, I made plans with friends for a trip to the East China Sea, and we chose to stay at the Junlan Hot Spring Hotel in Donghai County, Lianyungang, because the hot springs in Donghai are quite famous. 📍Address: The hotel is located at No. 99, Tanggu West Road, Donghai Hot Spring Tourism Resort, Donghai County, Lianyungang City, Jiangsu Province. We drove there from the downtown area of Qingdao, and it took about 4 hours to arrive. The hotel is very large, with many types of rooms. Standard rooms, single rooms, executive single rooms, executive standard rooms, ordinary suites, luxury suites... We booked a standard room online in advance, and it only cost a little over 400 this season, and we were given 2 hot spring tickets and a complimentary breakfast for two, which is quite cost-effective. I really like the hotel's decorative style, which is Hui-style architecture, dignified and elegant, consisting of a main building with a height of 4 floors and four auxiliary buildings connected by corridors. Next to it is the beautiful Tanggu Lake, which is very picturesque. Moreover, as soon as you enter the hotel, you can smell the fragrance of tea, which is very comfortable.

Why not take the little ones and the big ones to Lumingmeng Amusement Park for a stroll this weekend!!! The park has a carousel, a sandy mini excavator, a hill bounce, and many other games to play, ensuring that the kids won't be bored all day long~ Sand is also interesting for kids, oh babies get so excited when they see sand (I used to love playing with sand when I was little) it's like magic!!! Digging in the sand forever There's also crystal-themed learning and play, and water bumper cars and bumper boats are simply a paradise of joy for the little ones!
