Water Geothermal Square shows off one of Yilan's hottest spring areas, where water rich in sodium bicarbonate rises at around 95 C. That is too hot for bathing, but visitors use the heat to cook eggs and vegetables in the public pools.
It is a small, practical pleasure rather than a grand sight. Stop if you are passing through the hot-spring district and want to see how local geothermal energy becomes part of everyday travel.
