Dongyue Hot Springs Introduction
Dongyue Hot Spring is located next to Dongao Elementary School in Su'ao Township, Yilan County. The water temperature throughout the year is around 14 to 16 degrees Celsius, and the spring water is clear, allowing you to see small fish swimming. It is a popular summer spot for locals to cool off. With widespread sharing on the internet, it has attracted many visitors, making it a hot attraction in Su'ao during the summer vacation. The park has facilities such as camping areas, resting spots, and public restrooms, and there is a parking lot across the street to accommodate a large number of visitors. The Dongyue Hot Spring was created when underground water veins were accidentally uncovered during the construction of the dual-track railway for the North Link Line, leading to the cold water source being diverted into Dongao Creek, extending several hundred meters in length, and was later developed into Dongyue Hot Spring Park. The average depth of the spring water is about 60 centimeters, and the bottom is covered with stones, so parents should keep a close eye on their children while playing in the water to avoid accidents. While enjoying the water at Dongyue Hot Spring, you can also see trains passing overhead on the bridge, while many people play in the water below, creating an interesting scene. However, while visiting to escape the summer heat, please be aware that barbecuing is prohibited in the park to help maintain a clean environment in this beautiful cooling spot.
