About San Kamphaeng Hot Springs
San Kamphaeng Hot Springs is a geothermal spot east of the city built around hot mineral bathing pools and a geyser, with the local tradition of boiling eggs right in the spring water. It's a relaxed half-day trip rather than a major sight.
Worth knowing going in: it feels more like a developed park than a wild, untouched hot spring. That's not necessarily a bad thing, it just means don't expect a rustic or remote experience.
It pairs naturally with a visit to Mae Kampong village if you want to turn it into a fuller day out east of the city.
