At the summer springs, there are more than 100 thermal manifestations – boiling boilers, hot springs, large and small jets with combined cycle. The springs of the countries are sometimes called the Little Valley of Geysers, but this name is wrong, because there are no real geysers here – it is not boiling water that comes from underground, but from hot gas that heats the water on the surface, imitating a geyser.
