Shanay-Timpishka
The Shanay-Timpishka, also known as La Bomba, is a tributary of the Amazon River, called the "only boiling river in the world". It is 6.4 km long. It is known for the very high temperature of its waters—from 45 °C to nearly 100 °C. The name means 'boiled by the heat of the sun', though the source of the heat is actually geothermal.
