Inside Beitou – Taipei’s Hot Springs And More!

Taipei may be one of the most fascinating capitals I’ve ever been! I spent two days inside Beitou and discovered Taipei’s Hot Springs and more! This is one of Taiwan’s most underrated gems! Taipei is so much more than concrete and food markets. Beitou’s nature blew me away, and, in my opinion, a day trip there isn’t enough time to see this beautiful area.

In this Travel vlog, I take a break from the busy city streets of Taipei to explore the wonderful nature and hot springs of Beitou, Taiwan. And, it turns out that Beitou isn’t just a steaming natural wonder in Taiwan, it’s also a rare "Green Sulfur" town! So come check out my time inside Beitou where you’ll see Taipei’s hot springs and discover so much more that you need more than a day to see it!
