A gentle simple thermal spring, piped in from System 2 of Beppu's municipal hot-spring supply on the Ishigaki line. It is mildly alkaline and soft on the skin, lightly mineralized and easy on the body — nothing sharp about it. What lifts it is silica: metasilicic acid at 179 mg/kg puts it squarely in Japan's beauty-water family, leaving the thin film that makes skin feel noticeably smoother afterwards. The sample was drawn from a catch basin inside the bathhouse rather than at the wellhead.

About

This is a municipally operated hot spring with a high ceiling and a spacious bathtub, offering a sense of openness. It is a new type of multipurpose community center with a hot spring bath room alongside it, available for use by citizens and tourists. Opened in April 1995. The ceiling is raised to create an open space spanning the first and second floors, allowing guests to enjoy the beautiful garden outside from the spacious bathtub. A waterfall bath (utase-yu) is also provided.
