Ban Ho Village hot springs
These hot springs are located far from Sapa, in the village Ban Ho, an overnight stay in which usually ends three-day trekking tours on Myung Hoa Valley. If you also happen to be in this village while trekking or passing through, you can visit these springs, otherwise do not even think about going here from Sapa for them.
The fact is that these are not Springs with healing hot water from the bowels of the Earth, but just a pool in the private house of one of the local residents, who for a nominal fee lets anyone who wants to buy here. The owner of the House says that the water comes from a natural deep well, and has healing properties, but in fact it can not be checked, and given that it is slightly warm, doubt creeps in. Of course, there are no amenities.
That is why we do not advise you to specifically go here from the city, they are not worth it, but you can swim in them in the evening after a long walk before going to bed in Ban Ho. In addition, there is a river nearby where you can swim in cold water, and then again plunge into warm water.
