Amenities
Thermal pool

This spot sits in Tangweigou, the strip of public and semi-public hot spring facilities that made Jiaoxi famous. Rather than a full bathhouse with multiple pools and treatment rooms, it centers on one thing: a thermal pool stocked with small fish that nibble at skin, a novelty known locally as a "doctor fish" or fish-spa pool. Visitors soak feet or legs in the warm mineral water while the fish do their thing, a mix of hot-spring relaxation and odd sensory experience.

It's set up for casual, no-reservation visits. The price tier is low, making it an easy stop for anyone already wandering the Tangweigou area rather than a destination requiring planning or a big budget. Families are welcome, and the format is simple enough for kids to join in without much explanation needed.

Hours run long and late. Monday through Friday the pool is open from 9am to 10pm, and on weekends it stays open an extra hour, until 11pm, giving evening visitors and weekend travelers plenty of room to drop by after dinner or a day of sightseeing in Jiaoxi.

Beyond the pool and fish, there isn't much published detail on amenities, treatments, or exact pricing, so it's worth treating this as a quick, informal soak rather than a full spa day. Anyone wanting specifics on cost per session, towel or locker availability, or whether private tubs exist should call ahead or check the Facebook page, since none of that is listed publicly.

Good to know

Is it suitable for kids?

What should I bring?
