Julongshan Dragon Spring Hot Springs

The black wind port rolls under the black stone, there are dozens of hot springs below, as big as a bowl, small as a finger, these are distributed on the 1000 square meters of the hot spring group. It is less than two miles from the deafeninglong white waterfall, and flows along the roaring White River. It uses brilliant colors to dye the surrounding rocks and gravel golden, azure, deep red, and emerald green, shimmering with colorful lights and emitting steaming heat, which is particularly pleasing to visitors' eyes. Especially in winter, the surrounding area is covered in silver and snow, and the ice and snow are covered, while here is still hot and misty, truly a different scene. Changbai Mountain hot springs belong to high-temperature hot springs, most of the spring water temperature is above 60 degrees Celsius, the hottest spring eye can reach 82 degrees, put an egg, in an instant cooked. Changbai hot spring has "divine water" , can stretch muscles and blood, dispel cold and treat diseases, especially for the treatment of arthritis, skin diseases, etc. has very significant effect. Here there are hot spring bathing pools for visitors to bathe, the pool water temperature can be adjusted, after bathing, people feel relaxed and refreshed.
Julongquan is the largest, most distributed and hottest hot spring in the hot spring group, it is regarded as the first spring and first water of Changbai Mountain. It is located about 900 meters north of the White Waterfall, under the side of the Leibing Peak's stone pile. The distribution area reaches more than 1000 square meters, the two White Rivers pass through the hot spring group. On the river direction of the right side, the spring mouth is concentrated, there are dozens of them, the largest spring eye has 7. Many hot springs flow out from the ground, like dragons spraying water, hence the name Julongquan. "Changbai Mountain Records" recorded: "The temperature of each spring is not the same, generally above 60℃, the highest reaches 82℃, belonging to high-temperature hot springs." Rare plants, Jin'er small grass, grow by the hot spring. The spring mouth's output is generally 1.8-3.6 tons/hour, the maximum can reach 5.96 tons/hour. It is recorded that "Julongquan contains a lot of hydrogen sulfide gas, makes its surrounding gray-black volcanic rock layered orange-red or emerald green crystallization. This hot spring with hydrogen sulfide, calcium, mirror, etc. has high medical value, good for skin disease, arthritis and rheumatism. There is "God's Bath" bathing pool under Julongquan, which is for visitors to bathe while admiring the scenery of Changbai Mountain." In winter, the hot spring surrounds the mountain and underground, snow and ice. Julongquan is still hot and misty, the nearby Yu Hua head, hung with frost, with the downstream of the Songliao River's Jiulin City frost have different appearances.

Julongquan because it is big, many, hot, become the famous spring of Changbai Mountain, makes many mountaineers take a bath, taste this first spring, first water's most natural, most pure taste. Julongquan because the water temperature is very high, bubbles continuously emerge, can cook eggs. Visitors often watch eggs put into the hot spring with suspicious eyes, it doesn't take long for the eggs to cook, and the egg yolk doesn't solidify, the egg white doesn't solidify, at the same time there is a faint sulfurous taste, with salt face to eat, is a different flavor. There is also a very precious grass, Jin'er small grass, grows near the hot spring. It can withstand high temperature! The nature is really wonderful. Julongquan has more than 30 springs, the temperature is not the same, the taste is different. Some are like soda, drink it will burp; some are sweet, like orange juice; some is strong sulfurous taste, can't swallow.


These hot springs vividly prove that the residual heat of magma after Changbai Mountain's volcanic eruption hasn't ended, or that there are still volcanic activities in the deep underground. 'When the precipitation falling from the atmosphere falls to the ground and penetrates into the earth's crust, it is gradually heated by the heat in the deep earth, forming hot springs. The hot springs under great pressure, along with the cracks in the earth's crust, emerge on the surface, forming hot springs. As the hot springs gradually move upwards from the deep underground, the gas in the water follows the decrease of pressure as it moves upwards. The gas escapes from the water surface a lot, people see countless rolling pearl-like bubbles in the hot spring bottom, boil and spew out from the spring mouth, which is the reason here.' Scientists said so.
