Huaqing pool (traditional Chinese: 華清池; simplified Chinese: 华清池; pinyin: Huáqīng chí) Built in 723, the Huaqing pools were built at a hot springs located atop Mount Li (驪山), China, one of the three major peaks of the Qin Mountains. The Huaqing Palace (華清宮) was built at this location, approximately 25 km to the east of the capitol city of Chang'an. The Huaqing pools were thus able to utilize natural geothermal heating, which was taken advantage of by the rulers of various Chinese dynasties. One of the most famous examples of the use of these pools for bathing was the case of Yang Guifei, the Precious Consort of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, during the Tang Dynasty. Today it is an important tourist spot.
