紅葉温泉, Natural hot spring in Taitung County, Taiwan.
Hongyegu hot spring is a geothermal source in Taitung where warm mineral-rich water rises from underground reservoirs. The facility offers both private bathing rooms and shared pools where visitors can soak in the heated water.
Indigenous communities first discovered these thermal waters, and the site was later developed into a spa facility during the Japanese colonial period. This transformation established the basic structure that exists today.
The spring facilities incorporate both private bathing rooms and communal pools, reflecting the Taiwanese approach to thermal bathing traditions.
Regular bus services from Taitung City provide access to the spring, with various accommodation options nearby for overnight stays. Plan your visit around available transportation schedules to make the most of your time there.
The mineral composition of the water differs from other hot springs across Taiwan, shaped by the unique geological formations beneath Taitung. This distinctive makeup affects how the water feels and its effects on the skin.
