🌟Hot Springs: After checking in, you can enter and exit the hot springs an unlimited number of times with your room card, and the hot springs are open until eleven o'clock at night. The hot springs are large with many varieties, and the cave ones are very unique! There are also many facilities for children to play with, and you can rent swimming rings. Soaking in the hot springs at night♨ feels great, with many outdoor pools.
🌟Makeup and Photography: At the entrance of the tourist center, there are shops for makeup, with various costumes available. Since we brought our own Hanfu and cheongsam, we chose to do our own makeup. The town has both modern and desert styles, as well as art galleries and exhibitions, where you can take many types of photos.
🌟Performances: The performances in the town start at five o'clock. Our package included the Helan Grand Ceremony, which is spectacular and has a strong storyline. Children might not be very interested. There are performances at different times throughout the town.
🌟Dining: The town has a snack street with various snacks, and the prices are touching, almost the same as outside. There are also barbecue and hot and sour noodles. The hotel's own breakfast starts at seven and has a rich variety, including ramen and mutton offal, as well as various pastries. In the evening, the town also has taverns with excellent craft beer. After soaking in the hot springs at night, coming out to the quiet town has a different flavor, but there's not much to eat. Sitting in the tavern listening to music and having a beer with friends feels great too!
The town is actually not big, but it's rich in content. If you want to take photos, soak in the hot springs, and watch performances, you need to plan your time well.
I think staying for one night allows for a relaxed visit. Sisters who have time can go early, first visit the art gallery, then soak in the hot springs, do makeup, watch the Helan Grand Ceremony, come out to see various performances and eat snacks. Sisters who like to take photos can choose to soak in the evening or the next morning, as the hot springs are crowded in the afternoon. The town is suitable for a leisurely experience, perfect for a relaxing weekend! The parking lot is large and the fees are reasonable, and there are many attractions nearby.
