"This hot spring is great. Many locals would come to soak every few days." In a dimly lit cave, mist rose from the warm spring water, making the whole cave ambiguous. Scalding hot spring water flowed from the spring's eye, through a cold underground dark river, gathering in a dozen large pools before flowing towards the outside via the exit within the pool. You couldn't imagine such a place existing in the dry, barren mountains outside.
The hot spring's location is relatively remote and not easily accessible, so there are not many patrons. Only some lucky travelers, led by local guides, come here to enjoy the hot spring.
