This is a dream sequence written by Su Shi, a famous poet, which tortured students.

The real rise of bathhouse culture in China was in the Song Dynasty. It is called "bathroom" or "perfume pool". In the Southern Song Dynasty, it was recorded in Jingshi Jisheng and Menglianglu. From this point of view, Hangzhou is probably the birthplace of bathhouses.

When Su Dongpo was a satrap in Yangzhou, he liked to take a bath in the bathhouse. He once wrote a poem like a dream, "Look at the two scales carefully, wipe your back, bend your elbows and be gentle with your hands." The laity was originally clean. " Translated into modern Chinese, it roughly means: don't get excited, master, I don't have that much mud on me!

Of course, before the Song Dynasty, China also had a long history of bathing, but bathing was the ultimate experience of the royal family, and it did not develop to the point of "public bathrooms for all people to enjoy".

In the eyes of the ancients, bathing should be moderate. However, some emperors in ancient times did the opposite, taking good bathing conditions as the capital to show off their achievements. For example, the Xianyang Palace of Qin Shihuang has a royal advanced bathroom, a bathtub, a fireplace for heating, a large floor drain and drainage pipe, and a large bathroom for concubines.

The imperial palace bathrooms in the Tang Dynasty were quite luxurious, especially the Huaqing Palace built in the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, which contained a series of royal natural hot spring bathrooms and was called "Tang Dian". Since 1982, archaeologists have successively excavated the site of Huaqing Pool, including the Imperial Soup "Jiulong Hall" dedicated to the emperor, the Guifei Pool dedicated to Yang Guifei, and the official star soup of the civil and military officials who came here to shelter from the cold.
