Beitou Hot Spring Museum

The Beitou Hot Spring Museum is a museum about hot spring in Beitou Park, Beitou District, Taipei, Taiwan

The flourishing hot spring tourist industry in Beitou brought in Japanese geishas and nakasi musicians. Certain distinguished cultural phenomena, such as express delivery of nakasi musicians and bar attendants by scooter, as well as unique Taiwanese cuisine were developed. Beitou's hot spring hotels also provided venues for the golden age of the Taiwanese film industry between 1960s and 1970s, making Beitou as the Hollywood of Taiwanese cinema. In recent years, the promotion of folk music and yueqin (moon guitar) have also become the focal point of events held in Beitou in autumn.

Beitou's distinctive local culture shines through in the museum's collections, displays, educational activities and events. Due to its historical significance and its landmark cultural events and activities, Beitou possesses a distinguished charm. In 2011, Beitou was awarded 3 stars by Michelin for best tourist attraction due to its distinctive natural scenery, history, culture, customs, and convenience of access by public transportation
