  Above the chiral symmetry restoration crossover around T_{ch} ~ 155 MeV a new
regime arises in QCD, a stringy fluid, which is characterized by an approximate
chiral spin symmetry of the thermal partition function. This symmetry is not a
symmetry of the Dirac Lagrangian and is a symmetry of the electric part of the
QCD Lagrangian. In this regime the medium consists of the chirally symmetric
and approximately chiral spin symmetric hadrons that are made of the chirally
symmetric quarks connected into the color singlet compounds by a confining
chromoelectric field. This regime is evidenced by the approximate chiral spin
symmetry of the spatial and temporal correlators and by the breakdown of the
thermal perturbation theory at the crossover between the partonic (the
quark-gluon plasma) and stringy fluid regimes at ~ 3 T_{ch}. The chiral spin
symmetry smoothly disappears above ~ 3T_{ch} which means that the
chromoelectric confining interaction gets screened. A direct evidence that the
stringy fluid medium consists of densely packed hadrons is the pion spectral
function that shows a distinct pion state and its first radial excitation above
T_{ch}. Another direct evidence of the hadron degrees of freedom in the stringy
fluid is the bottomonium spectrum with the 1S,2S,3S and 1P,2P radial and
orbital excitations that become broad with temperature. The hadrons between
T_{ch} and ~ 3 T_{ch} in the stringy fluid interact strongly which makes the
stringy fluid more a liquid rather than a gas. We discuss how this chiral spin
symmetric regime extends into the finite chemical potentials domain and present
a qualitative sketch of the QCD phase diagram.
