Family Trip Around Guangxi | Check in at Shangsi's "Pamukkale of Turkey" - It's Amazing!

Seriously! I found a super suitable alternative to "Pamukkale of Turkey" around Guangxi for kids – it's Butou Hot Spring in Shangsi County, Fangchenggang. You can't go wrong choosing this for a family trip!🥳

📍Super easy to find location: It's right in the northern suburbs of Shangsi County, Fangchenggang. No need to take a long detour with kids, transportation is hassle-free!
As soon as we arrived, we were amazed by the environment! The hot spring is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and one side is by the water. All around are layers of green trees; the lush forest scenery is super healing~ Soaking in the hot spring, no matter which way you look, the unbeatable mountain views are all within sight. The child kept exclaiming "Mommy, look at all the trees!" while soaking. Family time was super enjoyable✔️

🏠Super rich variety of accommodation types: All guest rooms in the scenic area are built alongside the mountains, creating an absolutely fantastic ambiance! There are mountain-side cabins, mountain-side villas, as well as lakeside villas, magical ice houses, and even stilt houses, lakeside boathouses, and RVs. Whatever style you want to stay in can be satisfied~
The rooms are in a simple modern style, very clean and refreshing. As soon as you open the door from the room, you're greeted by lush greenery🍃🍃. The child ran off to chase butterflies as soon as they stepped out, super happy to be close to nature~
Staying here for a night with family and kids, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, breathing the fresh mountain air, felt like my tired body and mind were completely healed. So comfortable🥰

♨️Natural hot springs are super nourishing: Butou Hot Spring is a genuine natural mineral water hot spring. The spring water gushes out from rock crevices by the ditch, with a daily outflow of up to 12,000 cubic meters – the water volume is super abundant! The water temperature is consistently between 38 and 42 degrees Celsius, neither too cold nor too hot, just right, so kids won't feel uncomfortable soaking~
Moreover, the water is rich in 38 beneficial minerals like zinc, manganese, and iron. After soaking, your skin feels smooth. Soaking with kids also offers health benefits, killing two birds with one stone~

🏊Complete recreational facilities: Besides a large swimming pool with a roof where kids can splash and play to their heart's content🏊🏻, the scenic area also has 2 outdoor hot springs and 5 VIP small pools. Whether you want to soak as a whole family or relax quietly, it can be satisfied~ Spending a whole day here, the kids had so much fun and weren't bored at all👏👏

📷Must-visit photo spot: The "Hot Spring Terraced Waterfall" landscape specially renovated by the scenic area is truly magnificent! The layered spring water flows downwards like small waterfalls. Just pick any angle for a photo, and it can easily impress your friends on social media. Taking family photos with kids also turns out great, it's your key to blowing up your friends' feeds✔️✔️

⚠️Essential packing list: Swimsuit👙, swim cap, slippers, and bath towel are a must, as you'll need them for the hot springs; in summer, the sun is strong, so don't forget sunscreen; there might be mosquitoes in the mountains, so mosquito repellent should also be arranged~
‼️Important reminder: Pets and food are not allowed in the park. Please remember to abide by the rules~
