  • Chingshui Geothermal Field (清水地熱) - It is the largest geothermal area in Taiwan. The geothermal power comes in the form of hot springs. The spring is rich in sodium bicarbonate and its temperature is 95° C or above, which is too high for bathing. People can take advantage of the hot springs to boil eggs and other foods because the temperature is up to 95°C, higher than other hot springs. The foods boiled in hot spring water are softer and will contain the odor of the hot spring. In addition to boiling eggs, visitors can also soak their feet at another hot spring pool. After the foot-soaking, you can also enjoy a massage applied by the blind.
