Ever heard of natural hot springs in Malaysia? David and I just came back from our weekend trip to FELDA Residence Hot Springs, Sungkai yesterday. It has been a fun and stress-free weekend, albeit becoming really brown due to sun-burnt. :)
Note: Our second trip - 10 Things To Do at Sg. Klah Hot Springs (Sungkai)
******************************
Natural hot springs are a common occurrence in Peninsular Malaysia. This phenomenon occurs when water that seeps into the Earth is heated by magma; molten rock located beneath the surface of the Earth. The Earth's pressure then causes the water to again rise above the surface, forming a natural hot spring.

Its unique concept of a specially designed free flowing Hot Springs Swimming Pool and Therapeutic Park at the foothill of the Titiwangsa Range 200 feet above sea level is indeed creatively engineered to attract visitors who appreciate the wonders of nature.
The water flowing from the hot springs has several therapeutic healing effects. Since ancient times hot springs have been claimed to have positive effects on ailments such as stiff joints and stress related ailments, rheumatism, arthritis, insomnia, derma-related complaints, respiratory concerns, spinal injuries, and fractures.
