Baolai Visitor Center (Old Tree Square) Introduction
► Address: No. 1, Baolai St., Baolai Village, Liouguei District, Kaohsiung City ► Phone: 07-6881001 ► Service Hours: 08:30~17:00 The Baolai area is a popular destination for hot spring tourism in southern Taiwan and offers activities such as rafting and plum blossom viewing. It serves as a gateway to appreciate the natural landscapes of the Central Mountain Range. During holidays, visitor activity is frequent. To cater to the needs of resting and recreation during travelers' journeys, the "Baolai Old Tree Plaza Visitor Center" was established at Baolai Old Tree Plaza, providing appropriate tourism information, resting areas, and quality dining environments. The Baolai Old Tree Plaza is home to precious old trees (such as lemon eucalyptus and ancient camphor trees), which can be clearly seen on the way from Liouguei to the Baolai area. The plaza is situated on higher terrain compared to the surrounding area, allowing visitors to look out over the Laonong River Valley and the surrounding hills, offering beautiful scenery. Even on regular days, tourists stop here to admire the scenic river valley. During the annual plum blossom hot spring season festivities, the Old Tree Plaza also serves as the main venue for events. The first phase of construction (building work) began on October 13, 2009, and was completed on February 6, 2010. The first floor mainly serves as the tourist service center, which includes a visitor consultation desk, a multi-functional audiovisual room, interactive media for travel guides, an exhibition area, and a wooden resting platform. The second floor houses a small conference room and office space. The outdoor area on the first floor can also function as a diverse recreational space, integrating leisure activities at the Old Tree Plaza with the surrounding hot springs and agricultural specialties, providing a better and more convenient tourism environment to promote local tourism development. 【Accessibility Facilities】 Assistive Devices Wheelchairs: 1 Accessible Toilets: 3 Accessible Parking Spaces: Cars: 2
