Run a semi marathon, enjoy a hot spring or listen to music at Longshuihu Lake

Besides a semi-marathon, special rates are available for the “Caixin • Longshuihu Lake love song” concert and hot spring world at the Longshuihu Lake Holiday Resort.

On April 3th, the “Caixin • Longshuihu Lake love song ” concert will kick off by Longshuihu Lake. Blending elements of Baoding rock carvings and landscape culture, the concert will certainly bring beautiful traditional music to the tourists.

The “CaixinCup” semi-marathon on April 15th last year was an unforgettable event, and the joy will continue this year among all the people. Nearly 10,000 people will gather at the foot of Yulong Mountain, and enjoy sports to the fullest beside the relaxing Longshui Lake. Runners will enjoy what has been crowned “Chongqing’s most beautiful semi-marathon track”. (Translated by Li Xia, Fathom Language Limited)
