Nothing Really Poignant – James in Taiwan

Spring Park Wulai
Originally uploaded by Steven Lai.

Back in the US I have gone to SPAs before, but I have never been to a geothermal-heated hot spring until I got to Taiwan. Taiwan is filled with these natural Mineral springs and they are not that far from Taipei. After a 3- minute ride from the Green MRT line you can take a cab and go to the hot springs in Wulai.

This one hot spring SPA we found had private rooms overlooking the river. There was a notice in the room that people will walk along paths ont the far side of the river, but that didn’t worry me.
