Gubei Water Town boasts picturesque scenery throughout the four seasons: in spring, the icy water thaws and willow buds burst; in summer, butterflies flit among flowers under a glittering starry sky; in autumn, forests are ablaze with red leaves fluttering down; in winter, the town is wrapped in silver snow while hot springs remain as warm as spring.
