The answer is A. The geothermal plateau spans 100 km wide and 130 km long. The plateau was formed from volcanic activity in the regions that deposited mainly ignimbrite rocks in the area. On average, the plateau is 300 m above sea level. The plateau is a tourist attraction due to the pristine nature of the place and the numerous caves with glows worms, crystal-clear rivers, and waterfalls.
