Waiotapu Mud Pool Review

New Zealand is rich in geothermal resources, especially in the hot spring town of Rotorua, hidden a world-class national park ---wai-o-tapu geothermal park, where there are pits left after volcanic activity, all over the boiling mud, like the gate of hell, It is a landscape that nature has formed over 100,000 years. In the park, you will smell a strong smell of rotten eggs. This is a unique smell of sulfur. Most of the plants are smoked and distorted. But there are other plants that thrive here. There are even birds that crawl flat on the mud with such a high surface temperature to find insects foraging. You will be amazed at the vitality and the magical power of the earth.

Wai-O-Tapu Geothermal Park, formed after thousands of years of volcanic activity, looks like a miniature Yellowstone Park. There are three very interesting geothermal pools inside. One of them is Artist's Palette (artist's palette). The name is very artistic, and the pure natural color pools that are really seen are also like color palettes. Different colors in the water travel because of different trace elements. Green comes from ferrous salt, yellow from sulfur, orange from cobalt, and brown from iron oxide. Champagne Pool Champagne Pool, the logo of Wai-O-Tapu Geothermal Park, is also a place where Wu Qilong and Liu Shishi take wedding photos. Because they have been bubbling bubbles, it is called Champagne Pool, and the orange edge is especially like the big prism of Yellowstone. The champagne pool is 65 meters in diameter, 62 meters deep, and the water meter temperature is 74 degrees. The hot gas is carbon dioxide. It was formed by a volcanic eruption 700 years ago and contains a large amount of minerals, including gold, silver, mercury, sulfur, arsenic, iron and so on. Walking on the boardwalk, people will pass through the rising hot steam, which is interesting. Another attraction is the Devil's Pool, where the color of the water is strangely yellow-green, which comes from the large amount of sulfur in the pool.
