🏔️On my trip to Xi'an, I happened to come across the opening of the new exhibition area at Qinling Wildlife Park! Qinling is stunningly beautiful this season~ This time, staying at the Xi'an Huaqing Yutang Hotel gave me the imperial-level experience of "soaking in hot springs while watching Qinling"!
【Location & Transportation】
✅ Located within the Huaqing Palace Scenic Area, only a 15-minute drive from Qinling Wildlife Park
✅ A 5-minute walk from Huaqingchi Station on Metro Line 9
✅ Within 30 minutes by car to the Terracotta Warriors and Bell Tower
✨Highlights:
1️⃣ Every room has a private hot spring! The hot spring water is directly sourced from Huaqing Pool, and you can see the starry sky and Qinling outline while soaking at night
2️⃣ The hotel design replicates a Tang Dynasty palace, perfect for taking stunning photos in Hanfu in the courtyard
3️⃣ The newly opened animal-themed family rooms are super cute, kids scream with joy at the adorable room decorations
📸Photo Spots:
• Rooftop Viewing Platform: offers panoramic views of the Qinling Mountains and Huaqing Pool
• Starry Sky Hot Spring Room: opening the glass roof while soaking at night is super romantic
• Tang-style Corridor: just stand there in Hanfu and you get a masterpiece shot
🐼New Nearby Activities:
The newly expanded Panda Valley is supeeeer big! Now you can see the four treasures of Qinling (pandas, golden monkeys, takins, crested ibises) up close, and the interactive area lets you feed the cute little pandas~ It’s recommended to head straight to the new exhibition area at 9 AM to avoid crowds.
💡Booking Tips:
• Book hot spring rooms at least 1 month in advance during peak season
• The hotel offers free Hanfu rental
• Combo tickets are more cost-effective (Huaqing Palace + The Song of Everlasting Regret show + Zoo package)
If you want a hot spring trip that takes you back to the glorious Tang Dynasty, this place is definitely a top choice in Xi'an! Standing on the hotel terrace looking at the misty Qinling, you finally understand why emperors throughout history loved to vacation here~
