2009.01.12
On 16th-18th of January, all Skyline except those already on their way back to hometown for Spring Festival, aboaded the vehicle to Tangshan Holy Spring for a short stay, to relax themselve from the hard work in the past year.
28 kilometers (17.5 miles) east of the eastern Zhongshan Men (Zhongshan Gate) in Nanjing's ancient city walls the Tangshan Hot Springs bubble up amidst pleasant surroundings.
Purportedly a source of healing vapors and waters, the Hot Springs have welcomed emperors, high officials, and local citizens for centuries to cure skin diseases, arthritis, neuralgia and many other ailments. Locals tout the benefits of the odorless water, which contains calcium, magnesium, potassium and sodium and averages between 50°C-60°C (122°F-140°F). Today, a modern resort is being developed adjacent to the springs.
