Visiting Hanjeung in Shenzhen? Understand the usual cost before you go.

Alright, let’s talk about Han Zheng, those Korean-style saunas, in Shenzhen. I got pretty interested recently and wanted to figure out the real cost, you know, from actually going and checking things out myself.

So, first thing I did was just look around my area and ask some friends. Heard a bunch of different numbers, some cheap, some sounding pretty pricey. It seemed all over the place. I decided the only way to know for sure was to just go try a few different types.

My First Stop: A Local Spot

I started with a smaller place I’d seen near my apartment block in Nanshan. Looked pretty basic from the outside. I just walked in and went straight to the counter. Asked them, “Hey, how much just to use the sauna rooms and take a shower?” The lady there, she was pretty direct, told me it was 78 RMB. That got me the entry, a locker key, and those standard pajama-like clothes they give you. Pretty straightforward, no frills, just the basic hot rooms and a resting area.

Trying a Mid-Range Place

Next weekend, I decided to try something a bit bigger, one of those places that advertises more facilities. Found one near Futian that looked popular online, though I didn’t book or anything, just showed up. It definitely felt larger inside, more staff around. Went to the reception, asked the same question about the basic entry cost. This time, the price was 168 RMB. For that, yeah, you got the standard stuff, but they had more types of sauna rooms – salt room, jade room, that kind of thing. They also had a bigger lounge area, and I think some simple snacks like fruit were included, plus basic drinks like water and tea.

Checking Out a Big Spa Complex

Then, I wanted to see what the deal was with those really large, almost resort-like spa places that are open 24 hours. Picked one that people talk about a lot, known for being quite fancy. The entrance was way grander. Asked about the entry fee at the desk. Okay, this was a jump. The basic entry, just to get in and use the general sauna and pool areas, was 258 RMB. And that was just the starting point. Inside, everything extra cost quite a bit more – massages, special treatments, even the food and drinks inside were restaurant prices. But you could see what you were paying for: multiple floors, lots of different pools, movie rooms, sleeping pods, the works.

So, What’s the Deal?

Based on my little trips around, here’s what I found:

• Basic, no-frills places: You can probably find these for under 100 RMB, maybe around 70-90 RMB. Good for a quick sweat session.
• Mid-range spots with more rooms/features: These seem to hang around the 150-200 RMB mark. Better facilities, maybe some included drinks/snacks.
• Large, 24-hour spa complexes: Expect the entry fee alone to start from 200 RMB and go up, easily hitting 250 RMB or more. Then you pay extra for almost everything else inside.

So, “how much” really depends on what kind of experience you’re looking for. Location probably matters too, but mostly it’s about the size and the fancy stuff they offer. You can definitely find something that fits your budget, from a simple steam to a full day spa experience. Just gotta walk in and ask!
