Tengchong, which is adjacent to Myanmar in the southwest of
Yunnan, is a popular tourist destination. Tengchong is located at the
intersection of the Eurasia plate and the Indian mainland plate. The
crustal movement is active, causing frequent earthquakes and violent
earthquakes. After the volcanic eruption ceases, the karst cools,
forming a headless mountain, the volcano. Tengchong has a total of
97 volcanoes in the dormant period, of which 23 volcanoes are
relatively intact. These volcanoes have four types: braided volcanoes,
truncated conical volcanoes, shielded volcanoes, and low-flat
Maldives. Among them, 23 volcanic craters are relatively intact,
which makes the Tengchong volcano complete, large-scale, and
distributed. Known for its concentration and preservation, Tengchong
is also known as the “Natural Volcanic Geological Museum”.
On August 3, 2016, the Tengchong Volcano Hot Sea Tourist Area in
Baoshan City, Yunnan Province was approved as a 5A-level scenic
spot by the National Tourism Administration.
From October 1st, 2018, the price of the Tengchong volcanic hot sea
tourist area (volcano price 54 yuan / person, hot sea price 78 yuan /
person) price cut 50%.

3. Development History
In 1609, Xu Xiake inspected the Tengchong volcano and geothermal,
and wrote in “Xu Xiake’s Travel Notes and Traveling Diary Nine”:
“Turen Palace: 30 years ago (1609), all of which were large wood
giant bamboos, blinded, no gaps, There are Long Tan four, deep can
not measure, the sound of the foot to the surge, people can not dare;
after the shepherd, a thunder and shocked sheep five or six hundred
and pastoralists, even the night and night, the big tree Deep, the lake
is also landed, there is a hole in the water below the mountain, all
from the mountain roots to tease the clouds.
The stone on the top of the mountain, the color of the manuscript is
red and frivolous, like a bee, formed by the floating foam. Although it
is big enough to hold, and the two fingers are portable, the quality is
still strong, and it is really robbed.
“There has been no evidence of chronology and other relevant
aspects, so it is tentatively scheduled to be an unconfirmed outbreak.
From the “Tengchong volcano” described by Li Genyuan, “Tengchong
Mountain Volcano”, the volcanic eruption occurred in Zhicheng
Mingcheng, Zhengde, Jiajing and Wanli years, indicating that there
were eruptions in the Tengchong volcanic area hundreds of years ago,
but All are unconfirmed eruptions.
The only thing that can be determined is that the Tengchong volcano
had an outbreak 6,000 years ago.

4. Main Attractions
Tengchong is also one of the three major geothermal areas in China.
There are more than 80 gas springs and hot springs. It is known for
its strong heat and wonderful form. The most spectacular of these is
the cucumber ridge geothermal area 24 kilometers southwest of the
county. Known as the “Hot Sea”, dozens of hot springs swelled and
sizzled everywhere. Countless jet holes spray hot water and steam at
temperatures ranging from 94 to 98Y. The entire valley, the
turbulence of the waves, the hustle and bustle, not a world.
Heshunqiao Township Scenic Area is located 3 kilometers southwest
of Tengchong County, Yunnan Province. There are 4 famous scenic
spots, namely, the trapped river, Ai Siqi Memorial Hall, Qiandeng
Guanyin Ancient Tree Group, Laundry Pavilion, Shuanghong Bridge,
Longtan and Shuangshan.
The river is a wetland characterized by biodiversity. Because of its
extremely easy to fall into the crowd, it was called the river by
Heshun.
Ai Siqi Memorial Hall: Ai Siqi (1910-1966), formerly known as Li
Shengyu, is a famous modern philosopher in China. His two books,
“People’s Philosophy” and “Philosophy and Life”, have led countless
young people to embark on the revolutionary path.

5. Geographical environment
Tengchong has a well-preserved and typical dormant volcanic group
with a maximum altitude of 2,700 meters and a relative height
difference of 60 to 1000 meters. There are more than 80 hot springs
and mineral springs in the country, and more than 90 volcanic cones.
It is known as the “Natural Geological Natural Museum”. There are
many types of truncated conical volcanoes, low flat volcanoes, shield
volcanoes and braided volcanoes. There are 23 craters well preserved.
On the volcanic lava platform, there are basalt caves and
underground dark rivers.
This large prismatic and jointed basalt landscape not only has a high
ornamental value, but also has a special scientific research value.
The volcanoes are distributed around the city of Tengchong. The
volcanic eruption of the left volcano in the south of the city rushes
down the valley, and the undulating shape resembles a black
scorpion, called the volcanic snake, which is comparable to the British
“district embankment” and the American “devil rock”.
There are many geothermal places in Tengchong, including more than
80 steam springs, hot springs, hot springs and boiling springs. There
are sulphur pond big rolling pots, cucumber hot air ditch and bath
pond hot springs. The scenic spot is also known as the “natural
garden” and the “gene pool of species”.
The forest coverage rate is 46.1%, there are more than 2,500 higher
plants, more than 30 rare and protected plants, more than 300
species of birds, more than 100 species of mammals, and more than
60 species of rare and protected animals.
Tengchong Volcano The Tengchong dam is surrounded by volcanic
volcanoes. There are more than 70 volcanoes in a narrow area of 90
kilometers from north to south and 40 kilometers from east to west.
Scientists have discovered that the recent eruption of the Tengchong
volcano has been drawn from the past 50,000 years ago to 3800
years ago, and now it is its dormant period.

6. Tengchong Volcano is famous for its wide distribution and large scale,
forming one of the most fascinating natural landscapes in China.
The Tengchong volcanic group is one of the youngest volcanoes in
China. Its scale and integrity rank first in the country. Throughout the
ages, it has attracted many scientists to conduct research.
The 97 volcanic cones of the Cenozoic volcano are dominated by the
volcanic volcanoes. The volcanic cones are up to 214 meters and the
diameter of the crater is 400 meters and the depth is 60 meters.
At present, the most complete volcanic crater, with high scientific
research and ornamental value, is the Mazhan volcano group 20
kilometers away from the city. There are Dakong Mountain, Xiaokong
Mountain, Heikong Mountain, Chengzilou Mountain, Da Tuanshan,
Xiaotuan Mountain and Changpo. There are 22 hills, the Eagle
Mountain and the Maanshan and the old Guipo volcano, which are 4
kilometers away from the city. It is like a fine bonsai, which is
extremely spectacular.
Standing on the top of the big sky, the black empty mountain in the
north, the small empty mountain in the south and the surrounding
volcanic group will unfold infinitely with the tourists’ vision. The
large area of the lava flowing into the rocky mountain and the
volcanic cave, it is quiet and mysterious. Various poses. Nowadays,
the Tengchong Volcanic Group National Park, built with the help of
nature, has become a must-see for more and more tourists at home
and abroad.

7. Magmatic activity characteristics
Through the analysis of the vertical deformation and gravity variation
data of the Tengchong volcanic area, it can be seen that the
monitoring area has a wide coverage area and multiple faults pass
through the monitoring area, and the characteristics of point
deformation and gravity change are more complicated.
In general, the points near the volcanic cone and the fault are still
relatively large, and the vertical deformation and gravity change are
large.
There may be irregular magma or multiple magmatic capsules in the
volcanic area. The comprehensive application of multi-source model
and fault model can better explain the fact that the actual observation
data has opposite deformation changes of adjacent measuring points.
It is caused by two activities of the fault.
The magma in the volcanic area is in the form of a deformation from
the volcanic zone and the magnitude of the change in gravity, the
distribution of the ratio in the interpretation of the deformation-
gravity relationship, and the estimation of the equivalent volume of
the pressure source by the applied deformation. The state of activity
causes the vertical deformation of the earth’s surface to change year
by year. Although the magma has activity, its activity is low, and the
magma activity is relatively scattered, and the volcano has no danger
of eruption.

8. Geothermal use
Tengchong geothermal has a wide range of uses, and its spa
treatments can be surprisingly effective. The hot spring here contains
50 mg of calcium per dry milliliter, and also contains various
minerals such as magnesium, potassium, sodium and nitrogen. It can
effectively treat twenty or thirty diseases such as motor nerves,
digestion, respiration, cardiovascular, skin and gynecology. It is more
effective for rheumatic diseases and acute and chronic low back pain.
