Taw Pyar Kyi Hot Spring — in Burmese တောပြာကြီး ရေပူစမ်း — is a geothermal spring in Myanmar whose Burmese name means approximately 'Great Blue Forest Hot Spring,' evoking the dense blue-green forest of teak and tropical hardwoods that frames its natural setting. Myanmar's geothermal landscape, shaped by the tectonic complexity of the Himalayan mountain system and the Indo-Burman geological zone, produces hot springs of varied mineral character across the highland regions of the Shan Plateau, the Kayah Hills, and the Sagaing Division. The spring provides naturally geothermally heated water in an authentic Burmese forest setting of outstanding natural beauty.
Insider tip — Taw Pyar Kyi Hot Spring is a wild geothermal vent in the Bago hinterland of central Myanmar, a few kilometers from its neighbor Maung Nwet Kyi. The 40°C sulfurous flow seeps into shallow natural depressions among dense teak woodland. Access is by dirt track and facilities are minimal, but the undisturbed forest atmosphere draws steady local visitors seeking a genuinely off-the-beaten-path soak.
