The gates of hell in Rotorua are absolutely a fantastic geological landscape. The middle-aged smog is ethereal, and the geothermal resources are constantly coming out, making there are no creatures and plants in the surrounding lake water, just like the intersection of hell, but in fact, it is a natural hot spring, and you can also soak in a mud bath here, which feels very magical.

The Blue Lake in Rotorua is a lake formed by a volcanic eruption. The river here is very clear. As the name implies, because it shows a faint blue, like sea water, it is called the Blue Lake. In fact, it is because the calcium composition of the lake is relatively large. So it's such a magical color.

Mungnui Mountain does not seem to be very high, but the mountain is quite steep, and it takes about an hour for people to climb to the top of the mountain. The view after climbing to the top can be described as wide, and the blue and deep sea is in the eyes.

It is a representative landscape of Huai O Tapu Geothermal Wonderland, almost the size of a football field. The geothermal landscape itself is scarce, and most of it is white calcium carbonate, but this pool is presented with different layers of champagne color, and with clear green, it is rare. It is located in the first roundabout of the scenic spot, walking on the boardwalk, watching the pool constantly steaming, like a fairyland. There is a prominent observation deck on both sides of the northeast and southwest of the Champagne Pool for panoramic views.

It is really a holy water, the cold spring is not as cold as its name or imagination, the temperature is 10 degrees, the water is pure and sweet. Surrounded by the surrounding forests, the scenery and artistic conception of the whole scenic spot are great.

Pure original ecological park, there is steam coming out of the ground everywhere, there is a particularly pure lake like a mirror, you can also take a boat tour of the lake, but unfortunately we did not sit for limited time. This park is privately contracted, so it is a ticket. There is a bus shuttle bus that can take you back to the exit, otherwise it will take a long time. It is highly recommended, self-driving is the most convenient, you can play for a while. There are very few people in the park, and they are not bothered at all. You can take pictures at will.
