The oldest surviving bathhouse in Beitou’s hot springs district, established around 1907 and named after the second waterfall (二瀧) on the stream out front. The original men’s pool, built from local Qiligan stone (唭哩岸石), has survived over a century of the highly acidic green sulfur spring (青磺泉) it contains. Originally a military bathing facility, it was sold to the Lín family around 1950, who added a women’s bath and have operated it for three generations since. It is still in operation as of 2026. Also known as Longnaitang in Mandarin Chinese and Long Nice Hot Spring in English.
