A Wealth of Chinese Springs
Sister Spring
Two springs located in Sali Village on the northern part of Zhengzhou,
Henan
Province , vary greatly in temperature although they are near one another.
The spring above 32 C has been dubbed the hot spring by locals; the other, which
reaches below 18 C, is called the cold spring.
Milk Spring
Milk Spring is located in the southwest of Guiping County, Guangxi
Zhuang Autonomous Region . At 9:00 am and 9:00 pm every day, the spring
water turns milky and then runs limpid. The famous Xishan Tea is irrigated with
water from this spring and the famous "Maotai in Guangxi" wine is also brewed
with it. With its abundant supply of oxygen, the spring also boasts the best
soft water in China.
Coin-bearing Spring
It is named as Hupao
Spring in the West
Lake, Hangzhou
. The surface tension of water in the spring is so extraordinary that a coin in
the spring is not going to sink. When the water is contained in a cup, the water
of the will not overflow even when its surface is two or three millimeters above
the rim of the cup.
Geyser
At the foot of the Gangdisi Mountain in Tibetan
Autonomous Region , there is a famous geyser. The water column at the mouth
of geyser rises and falls tenderly repeatedly before it erupts. Then all of a
sudden, a white water column with a diameter of about two meters and a height of
more than 100 meters soars into the sky. Emitting warm steam, the column turns
into a blast of rain in the air. The geyser lasts for a while and resumes
tranquil after a while.
