The 2017 New Taipei City Hot Spring Festival Officially Kicks Off, Inviting You to Enjoy the Warmth of Happiness

As winter sets in, the season best suited for hot spring bathing has arrived once again! The 2017 New Taipei City Hot Spring Festival officially launched on the 29th. New Taipei City's unique geological conditions give rise to a rich and diverse variety of hot spring types, including the Wulai Beauty Spring, the North Coast undersea hot spring, the distinctively scented sulfur spring, and the uniquely colored iron spring, making them perfect for hot spring enthusiasts to explore one by one. This year, the New Taipei City Government and hot spring operators have jointly introduced many great-value discount packages, so you can soak in warm springs and enjoy fine food. Everyone is welcome to come to New Taipei City and savor the blissful taste of hot spring bathing.

The 2017 New Taipei City Hot Spring Festival invited Japanese celebrity chef Masa Yamashita, who resides in Taiwan, and Mr. Zhang Renjie, principal of the Wulai Hunter School and a well-known Wulai Atayal figure, to engage in Taiwanese-Japanese hot spring cuisine and cultural exchange. The New Taipei City Tourism and Travel Department stated that New Taipei City's Wulai Hot Spring Area and Jinshan Wanli Hot Spring Area are only a short 20-to-40-minute drive from the Greater Taipei metropolitan area, and are very convenient to reach by public transportation, making them ideal for small groups of friends to visit together, avoid the weekend crowds, and embrace the tranquility of nature. This year, the New Taipei City Government and hot spring operators have jointly launched the "Starlight Warm Spring" activity project, offering super discounts on weekday hot spring bathing with discounts as low as 3.5 off, and a minimum package of a hot spring room plus dinner for two for only 799 yuan. Gather everyone together to soak in the hot springs all winter long, and don't miss out.

The heartwarming hot spring package that causes a buying frenzy every year, the 2017 New Taipei City Hot Spring Festival, will go on sale promptly at 10 AM for 5 consecutive days from December 1 to December 5, with a daily limit of 200 packages, waiting for you to grab a great deal! For just 100 yuan, you can get a hot spring gift set worth a thousand dollars at market price, including a limited-edition New Taipei Little Guest towel figurine dressed in traditional Atayal clothing, a hot spring festival discount booklet, hot spring handmade soap, plus a bonus 500-yuan consumption voucher, making hot spring bathing easy and burden-free.
