Warm spring water gently flowed along a road in central China, captivating the attention of numerous villagers who gathered by the roadside to soak their feet.

The video was recorded in Zhengzhou, Henan Province, on November 26.

Mr. Qian, a resident of Li Po Village, shared that the phenomenon began on the night of November 24 when the hot spring well on Yongquan Road started releasing its soothing waters onto the street. By daytime on November 25, a large crowd had gathered to enjoy the warm waters, soak their feet, and even wash their cars.

According to a staff member of the Li Po Village Committee, this hot spring was discovered back in 2019 and originates from a depth of 3,200 meters underground, with a scorching water temperature of up to 50 degrees Celsius.

Currently, efforts are underway to drill a new well for the hot spring, with plans to develop it as part of a rural revitalization project. However, due to the previous COVID-19 pandemic, the project faced delays, and authorities are now seeking opportunities to resume its progress.

To ensure the proper functioning of the water pump, the hot spring well periodically releases water onto the street, with no fixed schedule—sometimes lasting for four or five days, and at other times, flowing continuously for ten days to half a month.
