It's not freezing at MINUS 40 degrees. Why is it not frozen at low temperature in Aershan, Inner Mongolia?

Because there is geothermal energy underwater, the water in the river never freezes. Even if the temperature outside is very cold, it is still steaming inside, giving people a very strange and spectacular sight.

Aershan, located in Xing 'an League, is a very beautiful scenic spot in China, adjacent to Hulunbeier. This area is the northernmost part of China. It's very cold in winter, and it's freezing. It's also very common that the temperature is 30-40 degrees below zero. Every winter, it is covered with snow, and the lake is covered with a thick layer of ice. However, in such cold weather, there is an ice-free river. No matter how cold it is, the river won't freeze.

Because there is geothermal energy under the river, just like hot springs, it can't freeze here. In this way, it has become a unique viewing area. Every winter, tourists from all over the country come here to punch in and take pictures. In the ice and snow environment, there is a place that is not frozen but steaming, which is also a great wonder of our country.

Aershan is not only beautiful in winter, but also has extraordinary scenery in spring and autumn. Spring, full of flowers and pleasant climate, is also a good season to visit here. The scenery of Aershan in autumn is like a layer of golden armor, and the forest is like entering a fairy tale world, which is very charming. Autumn is also a time for photographers to gather, but autumn here.
