Introduction
Hell Valley (Dire Valley) lies in Beitou, Taipei, Taiwan, China, one of the sources of Beitou's hot springs, with waters above 90°C, green-tinted and rich in sulfide and minerals. Its steaming, sulfur-scented air once earned the name 'Hell Valley,' later softened to 'Geothermal Valley.' A wooden boardwalk lets visitors view the geothermal wonder up close; nearby are the Beitou Hot Spring Museum, Beitou Library and Thermal Valley Park — a classic Taipei outing for volcanic-spring geology and bath culture. Admire from afar; the water scalds. Pair with nearby spring inns for a soothing day.
