Zhiben Hot Spring, Mineral hot spring in Beinan Township, Taiwan
The waters of Zhiben Hot Spring contain sodium bicarbonate and maintain a neutral pH between 7.0 and 7.4, making them suitable for extended bathing periods.
The Japanese administration established public bathing facilities at Zhiben Hot Spring during their colonial rule of Taiwan between 1895 and 1945.
The Puyuma indigenous people were the first inhabitants to recognize and utilize the therapeutic properties of these thermal waters for physical healing.
The hot spring facility remains open 24 hours daily and visitors can access it through Zhiben Station or by taking local buses from Taitung City.
In 2009, Typhoon Morakot caused a riverside hotel to collapse into the water, but the area recovered quickly and resumed operations within months.
