Geothermal Geology Museum

Tengchong, located at the intersection of the Eurasian plate and the Indian continental plate, the crust is active. Frequent earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions are triggered. After the eruption is stopped, the karst cools, forming a headless mountain volcano. There are 97 dormant volcanoes in Tengchong, of which 23 volcanoes are more complete. These volcanoes have four types: wedge volcano, cone volcano, shield volcano, and low flat Mar volcano. Tengchong volcano is famous for its complete type, large scale, centralized distribution and complete preservation, and Tengchong is also known as the "Natural Volcano Geological Museum".

Tengchong National Volcano Geology Museum is located in the Volcano Geopark, built in 1998, covering an area of 1594.3 square meters. The museum is refreshing with rich geological data and volcanic objects, so that visitors can fully understand the internal structure of the earth, and enhance the human understanding of the earth on which we depend. This is also the science education base in Yunnan Province. Sauce knowledge

The Tengchong Volcano Geology Museum is located in the Tengchong Volcano Geopark. Tickets have been included in the Volcano Geopark and no more tickets are required. The main inside is to introduce the pictures and physical displays of the formation of Tengchong Volcano, the formation of column joints, etc. There are various volcanic stones placed there, and there are pictures of simulated volcanic eruptions for visitors to watch. The entire museum is not large, but the introduction is very comprehensive, and there is a training of geographical knowledge at that time to improve geological awareness. Because it is in the volcanic scenic area, it is a very good choice to bring children to take a look.

Just at the entrance of Atami Scenic Area, popularize geographical knowledge

The Geothermal Geological Museum is a free attraction. You can see him before entering the ticket office of Atami. The whole museum is not big, but it is quite distinctive. The geothermal resources in Tengchong are introduced in detail. The plan for the future volcanic hot sea scenic spot is worth seeing. It takes about 30 minutes.
