## About Su'ao Cold Spring

Su'ao Cold Spring and Jiaosi Hot Spring are known as the two natural treasures hidden underground on the Lanyang Plain. Su'ao Cold Spring is a "low-temperature mineral spring" with a temperature below 22°C. Its water is clear and transparent, and it is a carbonated spring that can be both bathed in and drunk. When you first step into the pool, it feels rather cold, but within five minutes your whole body begins to warm up. Bubbles constantly rise from the bottom of the pool, so it feels as if you are soaking in soda water, which is quite unique. It is said that regular soaking in Su'ao Cold Spring can improve skin conditions, and long-term drinking of the water is believed to help with stomach and liver ailments.
