The water here at “Boiling Spring” is truly boiling, with ground temperatures reaching up to 102°C. Visitors to this spot often bring a bag of eggs to soak in the hot water. In just a few minutes, you can enjoy these uniquely boiled eggs. Just be careful not to place them too close to the spring’s eye — otherwise, nine out of ten eggs will crack due to the extreme heat. It's better to place them a bit farther away from the source.
