It was originally established as a library under the Yangmingshan Management Office. In <a href=\"https:\/\/zh.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/%E5%8C%97%E6%8A%95%E5%85%AC%E5%9C%92\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">1963<\/a>, it was incorporated into the Taipei Public Library system. However, due to the use of beach sand in its construction and the insufficient strength of the concrete, the library was closed in 1987, and the building was demolished and rebuilt in 2002.<br>The current library reopened in late 2006. The design focuses on integrating with the park&#8217;s natural environment, considering Beitou&#8217;s unique sulfurous geography by using wooden structures. The building also maximizes the use of large floor-to-ceiling windows to collect natural light. It is regarded as Taiwan&#8217;s first &#8220;green building&#8221; library, certified with a Diamond Grade Green Building Label. It is also perhaps Taipei&#8217;s most beautiful library. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hours:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td>Monday<\/td><td>9\u202fAM\u20135\u202fPM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Tuesday<\/td><td>8:30\u202fAM\u20139\u202fPM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Wednesday<\/td><td>8:30\u202fAM\u20139\u202fPM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Thursday<\/td><td>Closed<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Friday<\/td><td>8:30\u202fAM\u20139\u202fPM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Saturday<\/td><td>8:30\u202fAM\u20139\u202fPM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Sunday<\/td><td>9\u202fAM\u20135\u202fPM<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Activities:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides soaking in hot springs, there are many activities available in Beitou such as&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/klook.tp.st\/SP9gqbvo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Rock Climbing<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/klook.tp.st\/hiE6T5Nk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Water Skiing<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/klook.tp.st\/KAKkBqkj\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Kani Kimono Rental<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kkday.com\/en\/product\/133510?cid=20125\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Escape Experience<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/klook.tp.st\/gKVw5OSu\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Beitou Museum<\/a>, and more on&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/affiliate.klook.com\/redirect?aid=33635&amp;aff_adid=741833&amp;k_site=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.klook.com%2Factivity%2F39713-beitou-sulphur-valley-rock-climbing-experience-taipei%2F%3Fspm%3DActivity.SearchSuggest_LIST%26clickId%3Db6851a2cd9\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Klook here<\/a>&nbsp;or&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kkday.com\/en\/product\/34011?cid=20125\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">KKday here<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tours:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You can check out tours to Beitou such as a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/klook.tp.st\/gKVw5Eb1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Beitou and Yangmingshan Day Tour<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/klook.tp.st\/nAD7XiDm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Beitou and Yeliu Day Tour<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/klook.tp.st\/LYFLBZTB\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Beitou and Tamsui Day Tour<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.klook.com\/activity\/96402-taipei-nationalpalacemuseum-beitou-dadaocheng-daytour\/?spm=SearchResult.SearchResult_LIST&amp;clickId=13d830343e\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Beitou and National Palace Museum Tour<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/klook.tp.st\/OiVnNUNH\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Beitou Muslim Friendly Tour<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kkday.com\/en\/product\/184155?cid=20125\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Beitou Arts and Culture Tour<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kkday.com\/en\/product\/105607-yangmingshan-shared-day-tour-from-taipei-lengshuikeng-zhuzihu?cid=20125\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Flower Season Tour<\/a>, and more on&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/affiliate.klook.com\/redirect?aid=33635&amp;aff_adid=740759&amp;k_site=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.klook.com%2Fsearch%2Fresult%2F%3Fquery%3Dyangmingshan%26spm%3DSearchResult.TopNavigation.SearchInput%26clickId%3Dbd66a8b6c8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Klook here<\/a>&nbsp;or&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kkday.com\/en\/product\/184149?cid=20125\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">KKday here<\/a>.<br>You can also check out the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kkday.com\/en\/product\/184149?cid=20125\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Beitou Fun Package<\/a>&nbsp;from&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kkday.com\/en\/product\/184149?cid=20125\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">KKday<\/a>&nbsp;which includes a one-day transportation coupon, hot spring coupon, and coupon for over 8 souvenir shops in Beitou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where to Stay:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Wondering where to stay in the Beitou Hot Spring Area?
