Huangjin Hot Spring in Huanguang Introduction
The hot springs in Jinshan District, New Taipei City, belong to the Datun Mountain geothermal area. The Sulfur Harbor Public Bath's source emerges as a transparent and colorless spring, which has been confirmed by the Taiwan Hot Spring Research and Development Center to be an "iron spring." When the source emerges, it is transparent and colorless; the iron ions in the spring oxidize upon contact with air, resulting in a golden-brown spring. This type of spring is renowned in Japan as "Golden Spring." The bottom of the pool produces deposits from oxidized iron ions, and the surface of the pool features floating particles formed by mineral ions, known in Japan as "Yunohana." These are all natural phenomena. The outdoor footbath springs utilize a flowing system, and it is recommended to let the original water cool to a suitable temperature before soaking for better health benefits. The location is near Jinshan Beach, Shitoushan Park, and Jinshan Qingshui Wetland. After enjoying the sea water, visitors can relax in the footbath while watching eagles soar in the sky and water birds hunt in the Sulfur Creek, soaking in the golden spring under the golden sunset, and enjoying the tranquility of the moment.
