Róng Hé Wēnquán — 'Melting River Hot Spring' or 'Rong River Hot Spring' — is a geothermal spring in China associated with a river whose name evokes either the physical melting of ice and snow by the warmth of the spring's geothermal outflow or the gentle, merging character of a river that accepts and blends with the warm mineral water of the spring. River-associated hot springs are among China's most beloved thermal bathing environments, combining the warmth of mineral spring water with the aesthetic pleasure of flowing water and riverside scenery in a holistic experience of natural wellness deeply valued in Chinese culture. The spring provides naturally warm, mineralised water in an atmospheric riverside Chinese setting.

Insider tip — Set in the hilly terrain surrounding Chongqing, China's sprawling mountain megacity, this thermal spring taps into limestone aquifers warmed by geothermal gradients in the Sichuan Basin. Waters flow at 40°C and are typically calcium-bicarbonate rich, gentle on skin and ideal for long soaks. The resort sits amid bamboo groves and terraced hillsides that turn golden in autumn.
