De Leon Springs State Park, Natural spring state park in DeLeon Springs, Florida, US.
The park features a natural spring flowing at 20 million gallons daily, maintaining a constant temperature of 72 degrees Fahrenheit throughout the year.
Archaeological discoveries reveal a 6,000-year history of human habitation, with ancient dugout canoes found within the spring dating back 5,000 years.
The Mayaca Indians named this location Acuera, meaning Healing Waters, establishing the spring's significance as a water source for indigenous communities.
