Lùchuān

Luchuan lies in the hills of southeastern Guangxi, on the Jiuzhou River. The river flows south toward Guangdong and has long served as a route for goods entering and leaving the district. Luchuan is also known for its hot springs beside the river. Their warm waters were recorded as early as the Tang, when the place was associated with the name Wenshui, or Warm Water. Fields and settlements occupy the valleys between the surrounding hills.
