For a remote hot spring experience, make for Goldbug Hot Springs in Salmon-Challis National Forest in Idaho. These springs span about six waterfall-fed pools dammed by boulders. The pools average about 113 degrees Fahrenheit, are free to access and open year-round. (Note: These springs are clothing optional.) © Mkopka | Dreamstime.com
While you can’t get into these hot springs, Mammoth Hot Springs are still worth a visit just for the sight alone. In Yellowstone National Park, these springs were created over thousands of years. Today, the pools are about 170 degrees Fahrenheit, but its main feature is its colors; algae living in the warm water turn shades of red, orange, brown and green. © Zimu Liu | Dreamstime.com
Near Bridgeport, California, Travertine Hot Springs are a series of geothermal mineral springs situated on travertine terraces. A dip in these waters also includes views of the High Sierra mountains. Temperatures fluctuate in the pools due to underground movement. © Jropelato2 | Dreamstime.com
Sit in the first U.S. president’s recreated tub in Berkeley Springs State Park, West Virginia. Aptly named George Washington’s Bathtub, this small pool was created using 18th-century tools to honor George Washington, who frequented Berkeley Springs as a young man. The greater state park is home to five major springs visitors can bathe in. © Alan Kolnik | Dreamstime.com
Perhaps one of the most iconic hot springs in the world, Grand Prismatic Springs in Yellowstone National Park is the largest hot spring in the United States and third-largest in the world. Situated in the Midway Geyser Basin, this striking spring gets its colors from microbial mats of thermophilic bacteria, resembling colors in an optical prism. Fun fact: This spring discharges about 560 gallons of 160-degree Fahrenheit water per minute. © Luckyphotographer | Dreamstime.com

Sep 17, 2026High-Spirited Hong Kong: The Dynamic Hub Embraces Its Maritime History and Culture
It was known as the “Kai Tak heart attack” — the thrilling, terrifying final approach into Hong Kong’s Kai Tak Airport. Airliners were required to bank sharply at the last moment, dodging hills and apartment blocks to line up with a runway jutting out into Kowloon Bay. The airport is long gone, but international visitors are arriving at Kai Tak again, albeit more sedately. Their cruise ships dock smoothly at Kai Tak Cruise Terminal, a modern gateway designed by Sir Norman Foster.
