If you want to soak in hot springs in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai, this is the place to be

I recently went to Yancheng Yihe with my sisters. I've soaked in many hot springs, but soaking in a Jiangnan garden was a first for me. It was so comfortable🥰, perfect for a relaxing weekend~

♨️ Private natural hot spring, so comfortable
When choosing a hot spring hotel, I value whether it's a natural hot spring, cleanliness, and privacy. Yihe satisfies all three🥰
I stayed in a courtyard suite with a private courtyard and its own hot spring, which is fed directly from Dayang Bay's natural hot springs. You can really feel the buoyancy and minerals, a true 'real hot spring'👍🏻. Soaking with my sisters while chatting and editing photos was just too comfortable‼️

⛩ Dayang Bay scenic area, great for photos
The hotel is located within the Dayang Bay scenic area, where you can visit✅Nanmu Coffin✅Yingge✅Yandu Ancient Town✅Tangdu Li, all super photogenic
But I suggest spending more time at the hotel, as the beauty of the garden's framing aesthetics🏞 and the play of light✨ are fully showcased here

🍽 Huaiyang cuisine at the Black Pearl restaurant, so tasty
At Yihe, you must try the 'Wanguochun Chinese Restaurant' inside the hotel. As a Black Pearl-rated restaurant, every dish is full of creativity, and they can even deliver meals to your room, making for a very satisfying dining experience😋
Just between us, the side dishes are incredibly delicious‼️ My sisters and I devoured them all, haha
