Guanzihling Hot Springs are one of Taiwan’s four major hot springs, the others being at Beitou, Yang Ming Shan and Sihchongsi. These springs are somewhat unique, being the only mud springs in Taiwan. They are of an alkaline carbonatite type, and have a dense sulphuric content. The springs, which have a creamy feel, have a temperature of about 75 degrees Celsius. The spring waters are for bathing only, and not for drinking. After soaking in the springs, the whole body feels relaxed. The springs are effective for treating various medical ailments, such as skin allergies, exhaustion, gastrointestinal problems, rheumatism and arthritis, and are known as "nature’s healthy springs".
