Gongtian Hot Spring, known as the "Salt Well" in ancient times, is located in Gongtian Town, Yueyang County. Data provided by the 311 Brigade of the Ministry of Nuclear Industry show that Gongtian Hot Spring is rich in sulfur, selenium and other trace elements beneficial to human health, with a year-round water temperature above 40°C and very abundant reserves. A hot spring well with a daily yield of 600 tons has now been developed, and a small hot spring hotel has been built. The hotel covers an area of 10,000 square meters, with a building area of 2,400 square meters. It has one 15×25-meter swimming pool, 17 small shower rooms, 35 standard guest rooms, and supporting dining, entertainment and service facilities. As tourism development continues to heat up at Dayun Mountain National Forest Park and Zhangguying Folk Culture Village, the area receives up to 400,000 visitors a year, and the existing hot spring hotel and small swimming pool are far from meeting market demand. We sincerely invite people of vision to expand and renovate the existing hot spring swimming pool and related facilities according to market needs, and to bring the hotel up to star-rated standards. At the same time, a 100-bed sanatorium for the elderly will be newly built. The total project investment is 4 million yuan. The annual profit is 1 million yuan, and the investment payback period is 4 years.
