There are a few hot springs in the neighboring district of Enping. I visited one and it was a great experience. You can take a taxi or hire a personal driver to any of those locations. I would advice negociating the price first and asking the driver to wait outside of the resort for the return trip. The price should be around $200-300rmb(around $20-40usd) for the ride but that is just an estimate.
Diaolou in Kaiping were first constructed in the early Qing Dynasty (1644-1911). Initially they were constructed to guard against floods. During the waning years of the Qing reign and the early years of the Republic (1911-1949), overseas Chinese and local people from Kaiping built more castles to guard against continuing wars and rampant banditry and rapacious robbers. Diaolou reached its peak in the 1920s and 1930s when there were estimated to be more than 3,000 of these structures.
