Green City Garden Hot Spring Hotel (Wijiang River Garden Courtyard, All-in-One Dining, Accommodation & Hot Springs, Near Jiezi Ancient Town)

As the autumn breeze gently sweeps across the mountains of Mount Qingcheng, the forests shed the sultry heat of midsummer, and the air is filled with the fresh scent of greenery and moist soil. Climb the lush green mountains, take in the negative ions, and watch the mists slowly drift among the peaks.

While hiking and sightseeing are certainly pleasant, a comfortable short getaway also calls for a place to rest your weary feet. There is no need to rush around or worry about planning three meals a day; once you are tired from playing, you can soak in the warm hot springs and quietly listen to the sound of flowing water and birdsong in the garden courtyard.

Today, our editor recommends the Qingcheng Garden Hot Spring Hotel, located at the foot of Mount Qingcheng and along the banks of the Weijiang River—a garden‑style hot spring resort perfect for family wellness retreats and intimate gatherings with friends.

01. Qingcheng Leisure Secret Realm: A Chinese‑Style Garden by the River, Hiding Slow Vacation Moments

Nestled just below the Weijiang Bridge in Chongzhou's Jiezhi Ancient Town and built right along the water, the Qingcheng Garden Hot Spring Hotel spans an area of approximately 20mu. It is a traditional Chinese garden courtyard featuring scattered pavilions, terraces, towers, and winding streams with little bridges. Every step reveals a new view, making it effortless to capture therapeutic scenery with a simple snap.

It is about a 1‑hour drive from Chengdu with smooth road conditions. Adjacent to Jiezhi Ancient Town, the hotel is just a short walk away from the ancient town streets, and not far from the Mount Qingcheng Scenic Area, where a brief drive takes you straight into the mountains. Its exceptionally privileged location allows you to enjoy both sightseeing and accommodation without compromise.

Tucked away among the garden trees, the hot spring soaking pools are a unique therapeutic highlight of the hotel. With the autumn mountain breeze blowing coolly, slipping into the soothing warm water gradually relaxes the body's tension while the fresh fragrance of mountain foliage drifts on the breeze, washing away the fatigue of your hike.

There is also the popular Wuyou Pool, which frames the green mountains and drifting clouds on its surface by day, while twinkling lights fill the night with an atmospheric vibe. After soaking in the hot springs, you can head over to the steam room to soothe your body and mind.

For those who prefer quiet, you can fish by the Weijiang River, invite family and friends for a game in the chess and card room, stroll across the garden lawn, or chat under the trees while drinking tea—offering a perfect balance of dynamic and tranquil activities. It is ideal for holidaymakers looking to truly unwind and wellness‑seekers looking to lie back and recharge.

Built alongside the Weijiang River, the hotel is surrounded by lush ancient trees and greenery, forming a natural oxygen bar.
