2. The development status and trend of hot spring tourist area in China.

The development and utilization of hot springs in China has a long history, and bathing culture has existed since Qin Shihuang's time. Later, its medical value was gradually discovered, and hot springs became holiday resorts. Throughout the development history of hot springs, in ancient times, enjoying hot springs was the patent of royalty, and few private people developed and utilized them. After liberation, the development and utilization of hot springs were led by the government, and the government funded the construction of public spa institutions in various places. Their functions are limited to recuperation and bathing, and their audience is limited. It was not until the reform and opening up that domestic tourism demand was released. As an important tourism resource, the development and utilization of hot springs began to enter the market stage. At this time, hot springs are no longer simple convalescent places, and commercial developers actively introduce advanced equipment and incorporate some elements of leisure and entertainment. However, the number of consumers at this time is still very small, only some public consumers and richer people. In 1990s, the development of hot spring tourism entered a period of rapid development. People's income level has been greatly improved, the demand for hot spring tourism is increasing, and the forms of hot spring tourism are becoming increasingly diversified. In order to meet this demand, Guangdong and other economically developed regions have built a large number of hot spring tourist resorts one after another by learning from the development model of foreign hot spring tourism, and gradually separated from the maintenance function of the previous hot spring resorts, diversified development, and increased many leisure and entertainment projects such as accommodation, catering and so on.

China is a big hot spring country, with more than 4,000 hot springs in the country, which has great potential for development and utilization. Moreover, it is widely distributed in almost every province, among which Chongqing, Tianjin and Fuzhou are rated as "Hot Spring Capital of China"; "China Hot Spring City" includes Gongchangling District of Liaoyang City, Liaoning Province, Xingcheng City of Huludao City, Liaoning Province, Eryuan County of Yunnan Province, Linyi City of Shandong Province, Xianyang City of Shaanxi Province, Xianning City of Hubei Province, Chenzhou City of Hunan Province, Qingyuan City of Guangdong Province and Yangzhou City of Jiangsu Province.
