The Jiaoxi hot springs are among the few flat-land hot springs in Taiwan, making them easily accessible compared to mountain-based springs.
The water is classified as 'neutral' or slightly alkaline, containing sodium, magnesium, calcium, and potassium ions.
The park's design incorporates 'forest bathing' concepts, placing the thermal pools beneath canopy cover.
The spring water is naturally heated by the geothermal activity common to the Lanyang Plain.
Jiaoxi Hot Spring Park Foot Soak Pool is a public thermal facility located within a landscaped woodland park. The pool utilizes natural, sodium bicarbonate-rich hot spring water sourced directly from the Jiaoxi geothermal zone. The water is clear, odorless, and recognized for its skin-softening properties. The park grounds feature forested walking paths and wooden boardwalks surrounding the soaking area. The facility is designed for public foot baths rather than full-body immersion. It operates as an open-air amenity integrated into the town's broader hot spring infrastructure.

Avoid entering with open wounds or skin infections; do not attempt to use the foot pool for full-body bathing.
Cleanse feet before entry; do not use soap in the communal pool; no pets in the water.
