Taiwan -BeiTou

The 2nd place to be introduce is the paradise for those love to having the Hot Spring. There are 2 places while is famous with the hot spring, 1 is the PeiTou (北投) and another 1 is at WuLai (烏來). Because PeiTou having a better accessibility where we can reach there simply by their MRT.

There are public and private hot-springs here. The private 1 is actually an hotel where they steaming the spring water into ur room. For the public and outdoor hot spring, u’ll require to bring ur own swim suit. Since i dont bring it and cannot afford an private 1, so let’s go for a public but in door hot spring. Then we had select an old looking public hot-spring nearby.

ya, it`s the wooden hot-spring house. yet, inside the roof was actually broken whereby the sun-ray can penetrate the roof into spring. It`s hard to describe here, just imagine it’s a super old wooden house will do.

I was feeling weird and a little nervous as first time entering the hot-spring. Yes, it`s all naked man inside, and none of them are young -.-” i felt uneasy when they look at me. well, i was entered and what to lose actually, put off all my clothes and prepare to enter the spring.

It was summer when i visit the hot-spring. U can imagine to enter a more than 60 degree hot water in the summer, will u do it? it was too hot for me and i can barely enter my legs inside, but just sit aside and pouring some hot-spring water time to time upon my body. While having myself beside the spring, i try to observe. Yes, all are age of 40++. I think they had get used to the spring as they can stay quite some mins in the water in the summer time, whereby it`s 33 degree outside. Some are sleeping naked and another was exercising their own “little brother” beside the spring -.-”

Nevertheless after the hot-spring bath and go back to the outside, i was felling better as outside is more breezing then inside the spring (outside is still 33 degree Celsius!).

Beside the hot spring, there are some scenic spot we can pay for a visit. There is a hot-spring pool that is famous there. however, during my visit it’s still in maintenance, the entrance was close and cannot enter it. Nevertheless the are a hot-spring museum which can spare some times.

The scenic spot mention just now is the DiReGu, as shown in the picture below:

although we cannot visit the DiReGu, but the small stream from it is just next to the road and there are some family spending the time there.

The water in the river is hot, i think around 40 to 50 degree. Can u see the rocks in the stream is actually in green color? it’s because of the sulfuric of the spring.

Then here is the Hot-spring museum.


There got some free DIY postcard that we can try there for FREE. then y not try it? hehe

And here is another museum for the local.

The side-seeing spot here are less. Perhaps we can spend more time in the hot-spring if we can rent a small room there.
