Swimming in Taiwan!

I recently came across this beau­ti­ful swim­ming cen­tre, and I’ve now ded­i­cated myself to go this place for at least a day per week!

It is in Taichung and I haven’t actu­ally seen it adver­tised on the inter­net yet. How­ever, as the for­get­ful per­son I am — I’ve actu­ally for­got­ten the name of this swim­ming centre.

It fea­tures jacuzzi’s, hot tubs, swim­ming pools, sauna’s and basi­cally the whole lot. It includes facil­i­ties for chil­dren, older peo­ple and gen­er­ally works for every­one. They even have a tub which is full of ice water which, per­haps, could be per­ceived as relax­ing — although I’d rather not catch a cold, so I pre­fer to use the hot tubs.

I’m going again tomor­row, so I’ll take some pic­tures and take note of the actual name of the facil­ity itself — along with the address. It takes around 20 min­utes on foot, from Taichung sta­tion and around 10 min­utes by bus to get to this place. I would say it is above aver­age in terms of the swim­ming facil­i­ties you can find in Taichung.

Cost

It costs around $200NT per per­son for one visit. How­ever, I paid $500NT for 5 vis­its using my stu­dent ID card, so ensure you bring that along with you; if you have that. If not, it will cost $200NT –, how­ever there are other pric­ing options which I’ll  ensure to get down when I travel there tomor­row!
