Beitou Huangchi Hot Springs|High CP value private hot spring experience! Soak in happiness♨️

#TaipeiHot Springs A "cheap treasure" was found in Beitou Hot Springs! The private bath for 2 people at Huangchi Hot Springs is only NT$750, and you can get clay pot porridge for an additional NT$250. The CP value is so high that I want to let all Taiwanese know~ The process is smooth and the soup is warm, the first choice for weekend relaxation! 💰 High cost-effective experience guide ▪️ Private bath price and additional purchase Easter eggs NT$750/50 minutes on weekdays and NT$750/40 minutes on holidays. After 2 people share it, it is cheaper than a cup of Starbucks! Although you need to bring your own towels, the bathhouse is fully equipped with shower gel, shampoo, and even an "anti-fogging mirror"~ The clay pot porridge given for an additional NT$250 can be selected as "seafood" or "lean meat". We gave up reluctantly because we were in a hurry to go shopping in the market, and we regretted it when we smelled the strong fragrance from the bathhouse next door! ▪️ Process breakdown and pitfall avoidance guide 1. After paying at the counter on the first floor, remember to take the "ticket stub" to the small window on the side to exchange for the "hot spring room door card" (don't lose it!) 2. Go up to the second floor from the stairs next to the "hot spring museum" and follow the signs to the "private hot spring waiting area" to queue up (there are seats to rest) 3. After the number is called, enter the hot spring room to take a shower first, and then soak in the milky white sulfur spring~ When the time is almost up, the staff will knock on the door to remind you, and will never chase you away~ ♨️ Hot spring room experience and hidden gameplay ▪️ Small space, big satisfaction The hot spring room of about 4 square meters is separated into dry and wet areas. The bathtub can accommodate 2 people to bathe side by side. The wall is equipped with "manual water temperature adjustment". If you are afraid of being scalded, add cold water at any time~ There is a small table by the window, where you can put your mobile phone and drinks (it is recommended to bring your own sparkling water). It is simply "ideal on earth" to watch TV while bathing~ ▪️ The unexpected surprise of the public bath After experiencing the public bath, my friends praised: "The men's bath has an open-air bath!" It is said that the bath is made of stone and is decorated with green plants. You can look up at the sky while bathing. The experience is comparable to that of a luxury hotel when there are few people on weekends~ 🚶 Stop by to eat before and after bathing ✅ "Hot Spring Food Tour" at Beitou Market Before bathing, go to the market to buy "Grandma Hot Spring Jade Bamboo Shoots" (NT$30/bag), which are crispy and tender with a faint sulfur aroma; after bathing, eat "Agei Bo"'s fried tofu inlaid with vermicelli (NT$50/portion), which is super delicious with special sweet and spicy sauce~ ✅ "Japanese Architecture Check-in" at Beitou Museum It's a 5-minute walk to the "Beitou Museum", where wooden buildings are paired with red brick arches. It's super exciting to wear a yukata to take "fake Japanese" photos~ There is a permanent hot spring history exhibition in the museum. After visiting, you will understand Beitou's "hot spring culture" better~ ✅ Geothermal Valley "Steam Therapy" Walk 10 minutes from Huangchi to "Geothermal Valley", stand on the observation deck to watch the steaming blue spring water, and buy "hot spring water boiled eggs" (NT$20/piece). The half-cooked egg yolk is mixed with salt, which is simply the "best souvenir for hot spring bathing"~ 💡 Summary of practical tips ✔️ There is no clock in the hot spring room! It is recommended to set a countdown on your phone to avoid dizziness from soaking for too long ✔️ There are the least people before 2 pm on weekdays! We arrived at 14:00 on Wednesday and almost didn't have to queue ✔️ Beitou MRT Station has "free luggage lockers", and it is more comfortable to bathe lightly Summary: Huangchi Hot Spring conquered me with "affordable prices" and "clean experience"! Whether it is a date between couples, a gathering with girlfriends, or healing alone, here you can spend little money to enjoy "exclusive hot spring time"~ Next time I will bring my family here, and buy clay pot porridge on the spot after the hot spring bath, and feel the happiness of "warm from the inside out"~

Beitou Half-Day Trip Guide | Hot Springs and Strolls: Little Pleasures in Taipei's Suburbs If you only have half a day left and want to experience Taipei's laid-back side, Beitou is a must-do! Starting from Xinbeitou MRT Station, we'll explore popular attractions like the Beitou Hot Springs Museum and Geothermal Valley along the way. This is a chill, relaxing city getaway—even if it's a spur-of-the-moment trip, it's easy to pull off! Itinerary Highlights This itinerary is perfect for those who prefer a slower pace. Admission to the Hot Springs Museum is free, allowing you to experience Taiwanese hot spring culture without paying. The Geothermal Valley offers rich steam, hot spring water, and hand baths. Just a reminder: don't forget to bring a small towel to soak your hands while enjoying the ritual! The entire route connects to various attractions on foot, making it perfect for those who want to explore more in a short time! Beitou Half-Day Itinerary Summary 1. Xinbeitou MRT Station This is a super convenient starting point! Take the MRT Tamsui-Xinyi Line and exit Xinbeitou Station, and you'll find the old Beitou neighborhood. Nearby, you can easily take photos of the arty art installations within the station. Comfortable shoes are recommended, as the route involves extensive walking. 2. Beitou Hot Springs Museum 📍Address: No. 2, Zhongshan Road, Beitou District, Taipei City ⏰Opening Hours: Tuesday to Sunday, 9:00 AM–5:00 PM (Closed Mondays and public holidays) A must-see before soaking in the hot springs! The old Japanese-style bathhouse is a truly retro experience, and you can learn more about hot spring culture for free. There are frequent cultural and historical exhibitions, so plan to spend 30-45 minutes exploring! 3. Geothermal Valley 📍Address: Near the intersection of Zhongshan Road and Tangquan Road, Beitou District, Taipei City ⏰Opening Hours: 9:00 AM–5:00 PM The birthplace of Beitou Hot Springs! The air is filled with steam and the aroma of sulfur. You can even try the "hand bath"—soaking your hands in the warm water is incredibly soothing! There's a free foot bath nearby, but the water is a bit warm, so test it out before diving. Practical Tips and Experience Sharing 1. The Hot Spring Museum is free. If you're visiting on a holiday, some exhibitions may have limited capacity, so arrive early to avoid disappointment. 2. The Geothermal Valley hand bath is incredibly popular, so bring a small towel for hand wiping and photo ops. It's not suitable for foot baths, so only hands are allowed. 3. Beitou is dotted with hot spring hotels and old street food stalls. Explore the area while strolling—I personally recommend trying the authentic Beitou steamed buns! 4. Important reminder: The steam area of ​​the Geothermal Valley is slippery, so please be mindful of your footing. 5. This entire route is entirely on foot, and while it's comfortable, please wear good walking shoes to avoid losing your spirit. Getting There: Take the MRT Tamsui-Xinyi Line directly to Xinbeitou Station. From there, you can walk to all the main attractions. If you're looking for a last-minute full-body hot spring bath, there are numerous hot spring baths nearby. Make reservations online at trip.com. During peak times, it's best to arrive early! #BeitouHalfDayTour #TaipeiShortTrip #HotSpringCulture #GeothermalValleyHandBath #AlongTaipeiMRTLine
