A start off with a couple of interesting photo's from the area, as well as a tidbit or two.

Nepal. Above and reported on.

Tophotsprings reports (Dec. 1) on the more well-known Tatopani-Beni hot springs:

'Both the Tatopani Hot Spring and the Paudwar Hot Spring can be found in Tatopani, making this area a popular destination for those in search of geothermal waters for relaxation or medicinal purposes. Locals use the gentle waters of this natural mineral spring to relax and feel better, and it also draws a steady stream of curious tourists'.

A short report from The Rising Nepal (Feb. 3) on the same:

'The rural municipality has added infrastructure and managed the spring, increasing the number of visitors day by day, said Tilija. Three ponds have been constructed so that patients can submerge their bodies. Water tap has been installed for drinking water and toilets are constructed in the site. The bathing pool is covered with zinc sheets'.

Discovered the #Borong #HotSprings today. After one of the bumpiest rides on #twowheels ever, around 20 clicks later, we ended up at a huge hole in the road and had to walk from there. 40 minutes through a Nepalese #Shire (not joking) we hit the river and right next to it, this simple, yet #natural #pool of lovely #sulfury water. Our soakmates: #Sikkimese , #Nepalese , and #Bhutane , in which a few of the younger men spoke decent enough English for small talk. The hike back up through the Shire was an hour and a half long and decently intense ventute, but with the help of a local man, we located our transpo and were off on a whole different adventure getting back to #Ravangla. Quite the rewarding and overall incredible day! Stoke. | #Sikkim #India #Globetrotter #Winning #Travels #AreWeStillInIndia

Curlytales (Jul. 28, 2022) has a concise overview of five soaks in Sikkim.

Meanwhile, BBS reports (Oct. 10) on the efforts underway to restore Gasa hot spring.

'The Gasa hot spring or Gasa Tshachhu will take some time to reopen to the public. The management is still carrying out restoration works at the site. The hot spring which is believed to cure skin problems, joint pains, and digestive disorders, among others, was completely washed away by the Mochhu flood in August last year [2021]'.

More from China. iChongqing reports (Jan. 9) supposedly never ending push to establish the city as the world's hot spring capital, whatever that may mean / or be of significance.

'On January 6, the Second China Hot Spring Industry Expo opened in Beibei District, Chongqing, where abundant hot spring resources lie.

...

The exhibition scale of this industry expo is 10,000 square meters, with 6 themed exhibition areas and 200 booths. It brings together cutting-edge products and the latest technologies of the whole industry chain, such as international hot spring promotion agencies, hot spring resorts, and hot spring facilities and equipment companies.

One of the flagship products at this exhibition is the "Bath Aid Express," initiated by the Chongqing Charity Federation. The Bath Aid Express aims to ensure the cleanliness of the elderly by providing bath assistance services for the disabled, semi-disabled, and extremely poor elderly'.

This is a bath in a bus.

'At present, there are more than 40 hot spring tourist attractions, hotels, and resorts built in the city. Chongqing has become a famous hot spring tourism city centered on hot springs. The influence of the "World Hot Spring Capital" at home and abroad is continuously expanding'.

European Spa Association (ESPA) has an interview (Jan. 10) with two co-founders of the Shenzhen-Qianhai Sino-European Spa Academy. Why?

'With ancient Chinese legends and folk ballads extolling the enchanted healing powers of the water, thermal medicine has a long tradition in China dating back more than 2,000 years. On 15 November 2022 in Tengchong, Yunnan province in China, the first spa hotel dedicated to thermal medicine opened its doors'.

Basically the Academy has been trying to establish which soaks can be used for which ailment, so to say; it seems soaking for solace is not on their cards.

피곤함에 젖어있었던 몽골에서의 7일차

저번주의 딱 오늘.

쳉헤르 온천에 왔다, 온통 한국인들 뿐이였고,

파리와 메뚜기 천국이였다 🦟🦗

교회 수련회에 다녀온 오늘의 나는

파리와 메뚜기 천국이였던 그런 온천이라도

또 가고싶다 ㅠㅡㅠ

도란도란 얘기도하고, 파리랑 싸워도

그 순간이 재밌었던,
