A hot spring museum that has no entrance fee which explains the history of hot spring in Beitou. It mentions the 3 kinds of suplur rock which attribute to the hot springs found in Japan and Taiwan. A good visit when in Beitou. There is a queue to enter and exit because of the need to remove your shoes and use the in house slippers.

This museum takes us back in time to when hot springs baths shops began in Taiwan/Beitou. The museum offers a number of interactive features showing how people enjoyed the hot springs baths in historic times. There are displays showing how people dined and lived in Beitou. A great place to experience the past in Beitou.

During my visit to Beitou Hotspring Museum in December, the freezing temperatures outside made me appreciate the warmth and comfort of the hot springs even more. One of the best parts about this museum is that it's completely free of charge, making it accessible to everyone who wants to learn more about the history and significance of the hotsprings in Beitou.

As I entered the museum, I was greeted by friendly volunteers who kindly instructed me to take off my shoes before entering. This added a touch of authenticity and respect to the experience. The museum itself is incredibly informative, providing visitors with a wealth of knowledge about the hotsprings, their geological origins, and their cultural importance in Taiwan.

Beyond the educational aspect, the museum also offers a variety of activities to engage visitors. The size of the area allows for plenty of space to explore and interact. I particularly enjoyed the interactive displays and exhibits that allowed me to fully immerse myself in the hotspring experience.

Additionally, the museum provided ample opportunities for the perfect Instagram-worthy picture. The picturesque surroundings and stunning architecture of the museum make it a great spot to capture memorable moments.

Overall, I would rate my experience at Beitou Hotspring Museum a 9.5 out of 10. The combination of educational content, engaging activities, and beautiful surroundings make it a must-visit destination when in Beitou.

A well maintained museum documenting all minute details on Beitou hot springs and culture. Free entry. But there is a queue and you need to change your shoes.

Free entry! It's a small museum, but really beautiful and calm. You have to take off your shoes and put them in the lockers, and they'll provide common slippers to use. Really liked the wide straw mat seating area there, enjoyed just quietly sitting there and soaking in the atmosphere for some time.

Historic building commemorating Beitou’s Hot spring culture.

The museum covers topics from history of Beitou’s to discovery of the hot spring and how they were developed to the downfall and disrepair of the area to the construction of the current museum. Museum features two levels without an elevator so the bottom floor isn’t accessible. There are plenty of plaques in English (and Chinese) so would definitely recommend a visit.

Visitors have to remove their shoes, which can be stored in a free locker, and walk around in provided sandals.
KS Lok
Free admission. Take off your shoes at the entrance and the staff will lead you to the locker to put your shoes, change into slippers and retrieve the antique wooden locker key with your locker number on it.

The museum is two storey and you can leisurely finish walking around in 30minutes or so. Good info on the history of Beitou Hot Spring area. Worth a visit.
