Wiang Pa Pao hot springs |

|
The Wiang Pa
Pao hot springs are located just off the main road between
Chiang Mai
and
Chiang Rai at a
location with a
Khmer-style edifice,
an eye-catcher used as an effort
to promote
OTOP
products. |
The hot springs
themselves are scattered over a wider area, on both
sides of the road, and some have been embedded in a landscaped garden. |

There are several pools
with hot springs on both sides of the road, accommodating to travelers
passing by in either direction. |
The springs
themselves are too hot for comfort but man-made arteries
are derived which cool the water down enough for people
bathe their feet in it, believing it has beneficial
properties. |

In addition, there are
several smaller
pools to which the hot water is redirected and that
allows for visitors to boil eggs from small baskets that
are sold at the spot.
