Shamaoshan Hot Springs — Attraction in Taipei

There are a lot of hot springs in Beitou. We came here because we are looking for an onsen just like in Japan, which is nude hot springs. Of course, cellphones are not allowed inside. The ticket cost 250nt per person. Locker is 20nt, but unlike in Japan of 100 yen refundable locker, here you cannot get your 20nt back if you open your locker again, you need to put another 20nt to open your locker in case you forgot to get some things. So, going in, make sure to get your towels, toiletries, and bottled water before closing your locker. There are small shelves near the hot pool and bathing area, and you can leave your things there safely. They also give you plastic hair caps to cover your hair because towels are not allowed near the pools. There are 3 pools, the first one near the entrance is the hottest, the middle pool is the ice pool, and the farthest pool is the warm pool for seniors with massage jets. There's a sauna and jet shower, which I like very much. The bathing area can only accommodate 6 people, so you have to line up, especially if there are a lot of people. The dressing tables after onsen can only accommodate 6 people, so it is quite small compared to the traditional Japan onsen. But the sulfur water of the hot springs is really the best. There are no restaurants in this onsen, so it's better to eat first somewhere before coming here. The place is a little run down and old,...

It was amazing experience. Hot, Warm and Cold hot springs as well as sauna. I went around 7pm and it wasn’t crowded at all. Please bring along towel and other things you require after...

雖然我在這裡長大，並且常常泡溫泉，幾乎每一家溫泉館我都曾經光顧，但我對於這裡的溫泉文化一直感到失望。許多大眾池的使用者似乎對公共場合缺乏基本的素質教育，常常隨意行事，完全不顧他人感受。

洗澡間的衛生狀況也令人堪憂，很多人用完後並不會主動清理，這反映出文化教育的不足。此外，公共場所的管理似乎也不夠嚴謹，大眾池和洗澡間的經營都顯得相當隨意。雖然價格便宜，但環境卻讓人不滿。

我曾邀請來自日本、韓國、香港和新加坡的朋友，他們都認為台灣的溫泉環境好一點的價格如此昂貴，環境價格相較之下也不夠理想，對比之下他們更喜歡在日本泡溫泉。其實，溫泉是台灣的一項珍貴資源，但我們卻未能好好珍惜，缺乏提升家園環境的意識。

這不僅是對溫泉文化的反思，更是對整體教育文化品質的呼籲，希望未來能有更多人意識...
