Beitou Hot Spring Museum

Your time in the area will feel more natural if you combine it with a walk around the park, library, and hot spring district near Xinbeitou Station. The interior is a cultural heritage building, so check the visitor rules and entry guidance on the official page.

Useful tips
- Inside the museum, food and drink are restricted, and there are limits on the use of photography equipment, so follow the posted guidance.
- If you want an actual hot spring bath, reserve a nearby hot spring facility separately after visiting the museum.
- When looking at a Beitou route, it is easy to confuse hot spring bathing with the museum. Since official guidance treats this as an exhibition space, socks, organizing your belongings, and checking the visitor rules matter more than bathing supplies.
