The White Jade Hot Springs are located in the southern part of Baiyu Township, upstream of the Makhe River. There are numerous springs, with around 30 or more of varying sizes. The water gushing from these springs has an average temperature of over 70 degrees Celsius and is rich in mineral sulfides. Visitors who come here specifically pile up stones to create their own hot spring pools, soaking in them for hours at a time. These waters are said to help treat conditions such as arthritis, back pain, and skin diseases. Some of the springs reach temperatures of over 80 degrees Celsius and are referred to as "boiling springs." Local herders place raw meat and eggs in them, which are quickly cooked and ready to eat.
