Riyuegu Hotsprings has a long history, dating back over 400 years to the Hongliang period of the Ming Dynasty. Minister Ding Yizhong, a high-ranking official of the Ministry of Revenue, traveled through the landscapes of Fujian Province and learned that Master Wu had used the warm water from the Tang'an area to cure the diseases and epidemics of the people in Quanzhou. He was honored as the "Baoxin Emperor" by the people and then went to the Tang'an Hot Spring (now Dayue Valley Hot Spring) to experience it firsthand. After bathing, he felt clear-headed, refreshed, and extremely comfortable. Immediately, he composed the "Motto of the Hot Spring", enthusiastically praising the hot spring here, believing that it was a blessing from heaven for the common people. 
The hot spring water in Riyuegu Hotsprings is of excellent quality and abundant in quantity. The surface temperature can reach as high as 82℃. Its water type is a kind of silicic acid spring and chloride spring, rich in silicic acid, strontium, fluorine and other trace elements at concentrations higher than those for medical value. The chloride spring is regarded as a "traditional pain reliever", which helps relieve various pain conditions, such as gout, cervical spondylosis, neuralgia, chronic rheumatic arthritis, etc. The silicic acid spring can act as a "cleaner" for the skin, and is hailed as a "natural beauty liquid". It can soften the skin keratin, make the skin smooth and delay aging. When combined, they have obvious health care effects on the "sub-health" state of modern urban people (including chronic fatigue syndrome).
