| The hot springs in Binh Chau – Phuoc Buu Nature Reserve was discovered by a French Doctor named Albert Sallet in his examining trip to the southeast region of Vietnam in 1928. A scientific theory explains that the underground water streams in Binh Chau – Phuoc Buu forest are heated when they flow through a 3000 meters depth underground area that has hot lava gas. Water from these streams will be pushed to the ground by hot air to form many eruptive spots with hot mineral water which will create hot water lakes and streams. (Photo: Zing News) |
