The Shipiao Hot Springs Tourist Resort is situated in Dengzi Township in the northwest of Shidian County, 68 kilometers from the county town. It is named Shipiao (Scoop-shaped Rock) because the main spring eye features a massive rock shaped like a scoop. The hot spring water maintains a constant temperature between 50°C and 80°C, with a large water flow and over ten springs of various sizes. According to the “Test Report” from the Central Laboratory of the Yunnan Provincial Bureau of Geology and Mineral Resources Exploration and Development, Shipiao Hot Springs contains a variety of minerals and trace elements beneficial to the human body, mainly including potassium, sodium, calcium, magnesium, carbonic acid, and metasilicic acid. These minerals and trace elements can help treat rheumatism, stomach diseases, and skin conditions. Whether for bathing, drinking, or steam therapy, they offer miraculous therapeutic effects.
The Shipiao Hot Springs Resort features springs bubbling up everywhere and bath pools scattered all around — some flow from beside ancient tree roots, some cascade down cliffs, and others rush alongside small streams. There is also the authentic Shipiao heritage site, the crescent-shaped Moon Pool, the plunging Waist-Soaking Bath, the mist-enveloped Immortal’s Hut, and a high-standard artificial hot spring swimming pool. The scenery here combines wild charm with warm spring vibes, complemented by picturesque waterfalls, tree-shaded landscapes, and enchanting moonlit nights, creating a truly magical fairyland-like atmosphere that refreshes the body and lifts the spirit, making visitors linger and never want to leave.
