Red-hot steam roars straight out of the ground, enveloping the yellow-red stones and green slopes of the valley. Everything is hissing, whistling, bubbling. There are also bubbling gray puddles with viscous boiling water, fountains of hot springs, tunnels.
There are more than 100 thermal manifestations at Country springs — boiling boilers, hot springs, large and small steam-gas jets.
