by the earth's own energy, are believed to soothe,
revitalize and reinvigorate the body.

and are ideal spots to relieve tired muscles on a long hike through
the wilderness.
當然也有天然的溫泉地點，在樹林或是河岸邊
讓你能夠在野外健走完放鬆你疲憊的身軀
The nearest springs to Taipei are at Beitou-accessible on the main
MRT line. Visitors can see the source of the springs in the bubbling
sulfur of Hell Valley, then visit the Bathhouse Museum,
an original spa once used by the Japanese- including World War
two Kamikaze pilots who were given a luxurious break at Beitou
before being sent on their final missions.
距離大台北地區最近的泡溫泉地點就是北投－只要搭捷運就可抵達
在北投，遊客可以欣賞到最自然的溫泉源頭－地熱谷，
