The recent cooling down is like a magic damage with nowhere to escape, in addition to using a righteous body to keep out the cold, if you can take a hot bath in the mist steaming, it will be the greatest salvation in winter.
The bathing center in winter is indeed thriving. Since December, the search volume for keywords related to "bath" on Meituan has increased by 45% month-on-month.
Today's popular bathing center is no longer a gathering place for middle-aged and elderly people who only have bathing and scrubbing services in the ancient impression, and after many iterations and upgrades, it has completed a super-evolved form.
A bathing center, covering all the trajectories of human social behavior at the moment, is a veritable center of the contemporary universe.
Eat a top-notch buffet
There are all major bathing centers
That's right, it's the major bathing centers that can bring you the super experience of Hermes in the buffet world.
The Northeast bathing center is bright and atmospheric, and Shenyang's bubble forest is famous for its global seafood buffet such as hairy crabs, oysters, Jiwei shrimp, scallops, mussels, abalone, etc., coupled with the arrangement and combination of steamed, braised shrimp, cold salad, iron plate and other eating methods, the shrimp wonton is packed with a whole fresh prawn, no wonder it is often so popular that it is often queued up.

You can't get used to eating seafood, and there are Chinese and Western dishes freshly prepared by the chef. From Mao Xuewang and cold pot skewers to millet cucumbers, Cantonese refreshments or tomahawk steaks, there is something for all tastes.
Not only is the food good, but the atmosphere is also comfortable. The people around you wear the same bathrobe, you can elegantly cut the steak and send it to the mouth, you can calmly gnaw on the crab legs, and the simple dandan noodles can also be eaten heartily, without restraint or restrictions, just for two words: "eat well".
Beijing, Shanghai, Wuhan and Hangzhou all have water-wrapped soup springs that are all-you-can-eat fruit bases. All-you-can-eat cherries, strawberries, Japanese melons, and King Crystals are piled up in small hills, while drinks such as grapefruit juice, bala juice, coconut water, and sparkling water fill the freezer.

At After Tangquan in Beijing, you can even taste Baguo coffee, bake bread as well as a professional bakery, and even make your own DIY cakes and cookies. When digging the third bowl of all-you-can-eat Häagen-Dazs ice cream with a small spoon, four big words rose in my heart: quality of life.
High-grade self-service eating and drinking is just one of the attractive highlights of the bathing center.
From a single bathing place in the past to a complex of eating, drinking and playing, today's bathing centers cover almost all human behavior trajectories.
Spa, ear picking, foot pinching, hair and nail art are just basic operations, and the leisure and entertainment facilities are so involuted that only you can't think of it.
This kind of subdivision is no longer as simple as e-people playing wantonly in KTV, and i-people holding hot lattes in the audio-visual room.
Game lovers can use high-configuration computers to open up the black in the e-sports area, and there is also a VR game area in Taiyuan Shuimuwan Light Luxury Bath, which makes people have a good time.
After listening to the aftermath of the world-class immersive sound, walking into the director's seat in the theater to lie down and watch a cinema blockbuster, the matter of "being influenced by art in the bathing center" is really impressive.

You can also learn yoga for free by taking a bath, which can be achieved in the Dalian Water Street Hot Spring Life Museum; if you want to play in the water park with a childlike heart, Xi'an's Qingshui Watai and Shanghai's Shangyin+ have already prepared venues.
The happiness of full choice is even more extreme when placed on the "main business" of bathing.
Not to mention the main bathing business of soaking, rubbing, pressing, and steaming one-stop service is in place, but the bathing methods such as surfing, rafting, making waves, bubbles, wooden house bath barrels, etc. are comparable to water playgrounds, not to mention the variety of medicinal baths, milk baths, red wine pools, rose pools, and pebble pools.
The indoor swimming pool of Beijing Haide Hot Spring is a romantic starlight roof, and it also has the largest outdoor hot spring in Beijing, not to mention how beautiful it is to be covered by leaves and mottled light and shadow, just the contrast of "how cold the air is, how comfortable it is to soak in", which makes it like a winter mirage here.

Bathing centers in different regions also show their powers.
The reception hall of the bathing center like the Palace of Versailles is in the northeast nine times out of ten. The baroque chandeliers are shining, the European frescoes are magnificent, and the Roman columns stand next to the thermal pools, and you think you have come to worship at the Bathing Cathedral of St. Tieling, Tun'er, and Nicholas.
Compared with the pouring wealth in the northeast, Shanghai's Muyu Xinji and Hangzhou's Qushui Lanting focus on a kind of nobility. The shower is hansgrohe, the hair dryer is Dyson's, and after the shower, you will be smeared with Hermès perfume and brand-name skincare products, and then you will change into silk pajamas worth thousands of dollars, and then walk through the bamboo forest to the private clubhouse for an elegant Chinese afternoon tea.
Beijing's water-wrapped soup spring, Tangyue hot spring, and No. 9 hot spring are Internet celebrities with a fresh breeze. Stepping on the checkerboard floor, walking through the arched corridor, and ascending the spiral staircase, there are always people taking pictures next to the giant KAWS art sculpture in the log-colored library, not to mention the flamingo floating bed that pulls the ins-style atmosphere to the fullest, and the exquisite bathhouse of urban beauty.
Contemporary youth
I played with the bathing center out of flowers
Bathing centers are becoming more and more trendy and fashionable, and young people have also become the new main force of bathing consumption.
Meituan data shows that younger and more popular people have become the trend, and people aged 20-40 have become the main consumer force.
After all, the fast-paced group who are usually busy with exams and work urgently need a post station that can stop physically and mentally. The bathing center is such a utopia.
The integration of the new generation of people who pursue fashion trends allows the bathing center to create a novel way to meet the needs of segments in addition to the regular function of casual gatherings of relatives and friends.
Foodies free up 1TB of stomach in advance for unlimited meals and fruits. Durian and iced watermelon in summer, strawberries and cherries in winter, and even various Internet celebrity drinks are the first sip of drinking in the bathing center, and I have never envied the freedom of fruit drinks in the new middle class of the city.

Those who want to take a bath comfortably will not be disappointed with the extensive bathing services. Follow the steps of "one washing, two soaking, three steaming and four rubbing" to walk around, marinate yourself with milk, salt, red wine, and honey, rub your body as light as a swallow, slippery and fragrant, and walk out of the door The whole person is ruddy, and at this time I realized what is the pleasure of rebirth of bath water.
It is better to be alone than to be happy, and the bathing center has also become a good place for parents to walk their babies and young people to bring their parents to enjoy.
The complete facilities make the bathing center stand up to the name of "indoor walking baby parent-child ceiling", and unlike the tense atmosphere of chickens and dogs jumping when tutoring homework at home, the baby flipped through the flip book in the children's room for a while, played happily with the children he just met, and finally fell asleep on the lazy sofa.
Young people who bring their parents to the bathing center also have a sense of accomplishment. Hearing that my parents came out of the sauna, I happily said that my muscles and bones were dredged, and the cross-generational pleasure of the same frequency made young people more convinced: the bathing center is indeed a blessed place to shield and urge marriage and examination.
In the thinking of the contemporary people, the bathing center has also ushered in a new "mission".
I want to see a micro-vacation on the weekend, but the cross-city tour is too special-forces, and the suburban vacation is remote, so the advantages of the bathing center in the urban area are fully revealed: even if you don't open your eyes until 11 o'clock at noon, it does not prevent you from going to the bathing center to play.
First Meimei ate a buffet, slid into the slightly steaming hot water of the hot spring, did a spa in the sandalwood swirling, and came to the theater room with the tequila all over her body, and the whole person was visibly radiant to the naked eye.
Even if you watch the sea in Sanya, listen to the rain in the south of the Yangtze River, and admire the moon on the grassland, isn't it just a picture of relaxation? The moment you lock your clothes or even your mobile phone in the locker is already the first step to enter the state of vacation.
Even quite a few budget-conscious backpackers actually spend the night in the bathing center.
Meituan data shows that since the summer of this year, the online consumption scale of bathing centers has increased by 150% compared with 2019, with consumers aged 20-35 accounting for nearly 70%, and Shenyang, Beijing, Harbin, Shanghai, Tianjin and other cities have the highest popularity of bath searches.
Add dozens of yuan on the basis of the price of the bath package, that is, you have more cost-effective accommodation services such as Jia Hanting, and at the same time enjoy a one-stop mid-to-high-end entertainment venue, which is simply a profit.
In addition to the "overnight demand" of backpackers, the "overtime/Xi demand" has also been developed. In the rest room of the bathing center, those overtime parties and test preparers who turned on the computer and flipped through the books and brushed the questions, used the words "combination of work and rest" to the extreme.
It sounds like a joke, but only those who have been Xi or worked in the bathing center know it well: this is a reliable thing, no joke.
Get in the shower, have a meal, find a quiet corner or private compartment for the afternoon, and then have a late-night snack or a slate bath after your mission.
A familiar environment will produce inertia, and compared with the friction of staying at home, eating and drinking well can focus on overtime or Xi. The moment of inspiration for work or solving a problem may come when you close your eyes in the sauna or hot spring pool.
When night falls, not only do you eat and drink enough, but you also efficiently complete the overtime study and Xi tasks. Walking out of the glittering door with this sense of fulfillment, the emotion of "what a beautiful day" is also particularly sincere.
With complete facilities and inclusive attributes, the bathing center has become a leisure place that is becoming more and more popular among everyone.
The daily temperature drop in the weather forecast tells us that the winter is still long. But fortunately, you can not only take a bath to warm up your body and keep out the cold, but also eat and have a good time, and the doors of the bathing center are always open.
What's even more gratifying is that Meituan's annual promotion "Huanxi Festival" will also be launched from December 22 to January 1.
This year's main theme is "on the Meituan, group bathing, 5% off for the winter", superimposed with a limited edition of 188 yuan bath red envelopes, yes!
If you still don't know how to choose a favorite bathing center, it is better to search for "Huan Wash Festival" on the Meituan APP now, and you can receive red envelopes when you enter the event venue.
