Le Le Ye Xi Wenquan is located in Meishan, Chiayi County, Taiwan. Sulfurous water, warm at around 38°C, feeds an open-air bathing spot in this rural area on the island's west side.
Insider tip — Located in the Alishan foothills of Chiayi County in central-western Taiwan, these springs emerge from sedimentary and metamorphic rock along a minor fault splay of the Taiwan mountain belt. The mild sulfurous water is typical of springs in the lower elevation zones of the island's geothermal system. Meishan is known for its tea cultivation and seasonal cherry blossoms, making a thermal spring visit an excellent companion to tea-ceremony experiences in the surrounding plantations. The gentle temperature suits families and those new to thermal bathing.
