Hot spring is just a small part of Poring, you also can find rafflesia flower, waterfalls, cave, canopy walk, rainforest, orangutan, orchid farm, butterfly garden, etc. there! I&#8217;ll cover all these fun activities in 8 articles. For this 1st article, I&#8217;ll talk about the hot springs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/2012\/20120401_2.gif\" alt=\"location map of Poring Hot Springs\"\/><br \/>\nPoring is about 43 KM away from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mysabah.com\/kinabalu-park\/\">Kinabalu Park<\/a>, the 1st UNESCO World Heritage Site of Malaysia. Japanese also came here to bathe during their occupation in World War II.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Outdoor Hot Springs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The hot springs is the most visited area. Once you enter the park (opens from 9am to 5pm daily), just buy a ticket at the counter (RM10 (\u2248USD2.30), rates with effect from 1 Jan 2023), then you can enjoy the hot spring in open area for first 3 hours (RM10\/Hour thereafter). We believe the hot sulphur spring has therapeutic properties that heal certain skin diseases, and the heat and minerals also can soothe muscles and improve blood and lymphatic circulation, thereby improving our health and skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/2012\/20120401_4.jpg\" alt=\"ticket counter of Poring Hot Springs\"\/><br \/>\nAbove: the ticket counter at entrance.

The standard bathtub can hold about 2 adults.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/2012\/20120401_12.jpg\" alt=\"8-shape bath tub of Poring Hot Springs\"\/><br \/>\nAbove: a few 8-shape bathtubs that is big enough to host your family from grandma to grandchild.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/2012\/20120401_13.jpg\" alt=\"shared bathtubs of Poring Hot Springs\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/2012\/20120401_14.jpg\" alt=\"common bathtub of Poring Hot Springs\"\/><br \/>\nCloser look of the public bath tubs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/2012\/20120401_15.jpg\" alt=\"water taps of Poring Hot Springs\"\/><br \/> Note there are two water taps, one is hot spring, another one is cool water, so you can adjust the temperature. The temperature of hot spring is 45 to 60 degrees Celsius (113-140 degree F).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You may watch the following 3-minute video about Poring hot springs:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\"  id=\"_ytid_38948\"  width=\"930\" height=\"523\"  data-origwidth=\"930\" data-origheight=\"523\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/zxPgz1BWm38?enablejsapi=1&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;rel=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;color=red&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"fullscreen; accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy=\"1\" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=\"\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/2012\/20120401_18.jpg\" alt=\"steaming Poring Hot Springs\"\/><br \/>\nJust next to the open-air bathtub area, you would notice a big dark boulder with steaming pond under it. It&#8217;s the source of the hot springs (Mata Air Panas in Malay language).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/2012\/20120401_17.jpg\" alt=\"source of Poring Hot Springs\"\/><br \/>Hot sulphur spring water is formed by the less violent manifestation of volcanic areas, even when the volcanoes are no longer active. They represent the final stage of heat loss by igneous (crystalline rock), masses beneath off high temperature vapor and gases while slowly cooling down. This gaseous phase is composed of primarily of overheated steam that losses part of its heat while coming up to the surface and expands and is transformed into water, forming hot water spring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/2012\/20120401_19.jpg\" alt=\"source of Hot Springs (Mata Air Panas)\"\/><br \/>\nYou can see hot water flowing out of this hole all the time. Many hot springs contain Carbon Dioxide and Hydrogen Sulfide (H<sub>2<\/sub>S) in varying proportions and mineral salt are always dissolved in the thermal spring water, thus you have sulphur in hot spring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/2012\/20120401_20.jpg\" alt=\"noticeboard of Poring Hot Springs\"\/><br \/>\nSince this is the hot spring source, you are not allowed to boil eggs, wash towel and soak your feet there. In the past, someone put the egg in the boiling hot spring and it really cooked!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/2012\/20120401_21.jpg\" alt=\"Poring Hot Springs bathtubs and the source\"\/><br \/>\nAbove: photo of hot spring source and the open bathtubs area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Indoor \/ Enclosed Bath Tubs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The open bathtub area is always crowded with people and noisy kids. If you want more space and privacy, you can consider Indoor \/ Enclosed Bathtubs, the fee for Deluxe Bathtub is RM35 (\u2248USD8.00) per hour, Standard Bathtub is RM25 (\u2248USD5.70) per hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/2012\/20120401_22.jpg\" alt=\"enclosed bath tub counter and locker room\"\/><br \/>\nAbove: the counter for enclosed bath tub and locker room. They open from 9am to 5pm.<br \/>\nPlease note that this is NOT a ticket counter. You must buy the ticket for Indoor bathtub at the park entrance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/2012\/20120401_23.jpg\" alt=\"enclosed bath tub counter of Poring Hot Springs\"\/><br \/>\nAfter getting the ticket, you just register here with the staff. If you didn&#8217;t buy the ticket, you will have to walk back and forth for half a KM (500 Meters) to buy ticket from the Park entrance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/2012\/20120401_24.jpg\" alt=\"locker room\"\/><br \/> They also have locker service (RM5.00 per day, with effect from 1 Jan 2023), but it&#8217;s not necessary for indoor bathtub users. It&#8217;s meant for bathers in open bath area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/2012\/20120401_25.jpg\" alt=\"enclosed or indoor bath tub of Poring Hot Springs\"\/><br \/>\nShow the staff your Enclosed Bathtub ticket and they will bring you to one of these cabins for indoor bathtubs.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/2012\/20120401_26.jpg\" alt=\"Indoor bath tub of Poring Hot Springs\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/2012\/20120401_27.jpg\" alt=\"Enclosed bath tub of Poring Hot Springs\"\/><br \/>\nAbove: the interior of Indoor \/ Enclosed bathtubs cabin.

Even in relax sitting pose, I can&#8217;t fully extend my legs. I am not even 6-feet tall, so this bathtub would be a bit small for big guys. Ok, that&#8217;s all about the indoor bathtub. I guess nobody want to see me naked. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You may watch the 1-minute video below to explore the indoor bathtub:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\"  id=\"_ytid_18211\"  width=\"930\" height=\"523\"  data-origwidth=\"930\" data-origheight=\"523\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/g-bKprgoWyg?enablejsapi=1&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;rel=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;color=red&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"fullscreen; accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy=\"1\" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=\"\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Rock Pool<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For those who prefer cold water over hot spring, there is a Rock Pool next to the hot spring area. Just jump into the water, no purchase of another ticket required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/2012\/20120401_31.jpg\" alt=\"Rock Pool of Poring Hot Springs\"\/><br \/>\nHowever, try to avoid jumping into the water right after a hot spring bath. A sudden shift from hot to cold water will cause thermal shock. Somebody passes out because of that.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/2012\/20120401_33.jpg\" alt=\"Poring Rock Pool\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/2012\/20120401_32.jpg\" alt=\"Rock Pool\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>The Rock Pool is divided into two sections. The small and shallow one at the right is for children who don&#8217;t know how to swim. The left one is 6-feet in deepest area. Though there is life guard around, you better keep an eye on your child. Buoy is available for rent for RM2 per hour (\u2248USD0.60).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/2012\/20120401_34.jpg\" alt=\"Rock Pool\"\/><br \/>\nThe water is from the mountain stream so it&#8217;s really icy cold that you will shiver in the pool. But you will get used to it after a while. The water is natural stream water so it appears green, unlike the blue-color pool filled with Chlorine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/2012\/20120401_35.jpg\" alt=\"people swimming in Rock Pool\"\/><br \/>\nSame as other facilities, the Rock Pool is also open from 9am to 5pm daily. There is a toilet and changing room next to the pool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You may watch the following 1-min video about Rock Pool:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\"  id=\"_ytid_22948\"  width=\"930\" height=\"523\"  data-origwidth=\"930\" data-origheight=\"523\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/TVjJ8HiMiiw?enablejsapi=1&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;rel=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;color=red&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"fullscreen; accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy=\"1\" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=\"\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4.
