Hot Spring Street, Xingyi Road

Just off of Taipei's Beitou MRT station, head to Beitou's hot spring area, also called 'thermal valley' for the natural geysers. A glistening river flows through this mythical steamy valley. The public hot springs are communcal and free of charge, otherwise rows of hot spring hotels are situated throughout the valley, ranging in price and facilities. A popular tourist area, Beitou is also a good place to enjoy the natural scenery, or people watch. As a luxury area, there are plenty of gourmet restaurants around Beitou's dormant volcano. The perfect place to go for an easily accessible adventure and day of pampering.
