I love visiting natural hot springs. The water is filled with natural minerals that are great for the body. When I went to visit the hot springs in Chiang Mai, we dipped our feet in the springs. After a nice dip, we decided to take a look around.
There was one pool which was over 105 celsius degrees. If you put your hand in the water, your hand would cook! I learned that people love to visit the hot springs to boil eggs. They even have signs that tell you how long you should cook your egg if you want it to be soft, medium or hard. Who would have ever thought to cook eggs in a hot spring! How clever!
(Here is a basket of eggs cooking)
Next time I visit a hot spring in America, I'll be sure to bring a basket of eggs to cook!
What interesting things have you learned about other cultures when traveling? Feel free to share below.
