In Tengchong Sit on the crater Reflect on billions of years - How magical and wonderful this planet is Self-driving tour of Tengchong Volcanic Geothermal National Geological Park Tengchong Located in the western border of Yunnan, bordering Myanmar to the west Historically, it was an important point on the Southern Silk Road In Xu Xiake's travel notes It is the "Top Border City" that is "unparalleled in the west" It is also the southwestern end of the Heihe-Tengchong Line. Tengchong is one of the four major volcanic groups in China, with a large number of volcanoes and a high density of distribution, known as the "Natural Volcanic Geological Museum". The volcanoes here all developed in the Cenozoic era. In the long geological era, the Cenozoic era is very close to us, so Tengchong volcanoes can be said to be the "youngsters" in the history of the earth. The volcanoes here are closely connected. For example, the Mazhan Volcanic Group, the most well-preserved volcanic crater in Tengchong, is a "natural geological specimen" with high scientific and ornamental value. Within a range of only 14 square kilometers, there are 25 volcanoes. Today, the volcanoes have been dormant for more than 4,000 years. However, due to the special geological conditions here, the underground magma is still active, providing a continuous source of heat for the hot springs in Tengchong.
