Hot Springs Waterfall: A Hidden Gem in Krabi

This passage describes a unique natural wonder in Krabi, Thailand: a hot springs waterfall. Unlike typical waterfalls, this one features naturally heated water, reaching temperatures between 40-50 degrees Celsius. The source of this warmth is mineral-rich water bubbling up from the earth, forming a cascading stream. While the waterfall itself isn't particularly high, it boasts several pools of varying temperatures. The hottest pools are located near the source, with the temperature gradually decreasing downstream. This unusual attraction has earned its place as an "unseen Thailand" destination, offering a refreshing and therapeutic experience for visitors to Krabi.

The Emerald Pool, located a short distance beyond the hot springs, is divided into three pools: Sa Kaeo Pool, Emerald Pool, and Nam Phut Pool. The water in the pools is clear emerald green and has a temperature of around 30-50 degrees Celsius. Soaking in the warm mineral water helps to relax the body and can also treat certain diseases.

The Emerald Pool area features a nature trail with a diverse range of tree species, offering a shady and pleasant walk. Birdwatchers can also spot various unique bird species, such as the Black-bellied Flowerpecker.
