Etymology

The word 'geyser' originates from Iceland, where geysers are plentiful due to the country's volcanic activity. The term was first used in the English language in the early 19th century to describe these natural hot springs. Geysers have since become a popular tourist attraction around the world, known for their impressive displays of water and steam eruptions.
