Exploring Baoding | The Mysterious 13°C, One of the World’s Eight Strange Springs… Amazing Yesanpo!

Are you, dear friends, thinking about traveling?

If so, let’s uncover the secrets of Yesanpo together!

Time and earthly affairs haste day by day;

Winter solstice brings back the sun, and spring follows on its way.

In the deep cold of the Nine-Day Cold spell, the wind cuts like a knife.

But even when the sky is freezing,

As long as your heart yearns for faraway places,

Every step you take becomes the most beautiful footprint.

Go to the loveliest spots, see the loveliest views.

That’s our original purpose, and what we hold onto.

This winter, besides enjoying folk customs and skiing,

You can also head to a cave to feel the “mysterious 13°C” –

A different way to keep warm!

Along the Xiaoxi River valley, a tributary of the Juma River,

There are many bizarre springs and wondrous caves,

A perfect place for curious travelers seeking wonder.

This is the Yugu Cave Spring Scenic Area.

Here, Yugu Cave and Yugu Cave Spring,

Naturally formed and full of mystery,

With countless shapes of stalactites, stalagmites, and stone pillars,

And vast, lofty caverns,

Winding, twisting passageways,

Under the play of lights, it looks like an underground dragon palace,

Making visitors reluctant to leave.

Yugu Cave keeps a constant temperature of 11–13°C all year round.

Its full length is 1,800 meters, divided into five layers.

Every layer has its own scenery, each more fantastic than the last.

Caves within caves, all interconnected.

No matter if it’s blazing summer or icy winter outside,

Stepping into Yugu Cave is like entering a time tunnel,

Completely cut off from the outside temperature and environment.

In summer, it’s cool enough yet never chilly;

In winter, it’s warm enough without being stuffy.

What dazzles the eye are the stalactites

Blossoming under beam after beam of light –

Magical, dreamy, and yet so simple.

With its sharp temperature contrast and mysterious legends,

Yugu Cave has become a key winter attraction in Yesanpo.

Just south of Yugu Cave lies Yugu Cave Spring,

Sweet, refreshing, and gushing water all year long –

A rare, natural mineral spring.

Around every Grain Rain on the lunar calendar,

The spring cave continuously spews out fish,

An age-old unsolved mystery.

That’s why the spring is known as one of the “World’s Eight Strange Springs”

And listed as a world wonder.

Seasons change,

But the warmth never fades.
