A simple sulfur spring carrying hydrogen sulfide, with a faint rotten-egg note and visible gas evolution at the source. Strongly alkaline at pH 9.6, it gives a pronounced slippery feel and sits in Japan's beauty-water family. With 58 mg/kg of metasilicic acid layered in, it leaves the skin feeling smooth.

280. Ryokan Ichikawa, Umegashima ★ We went for a higaeri for ¥600, listed from 13:00 to 16:00. They stamp the Shizuoka 60 onsen stamp rally 24/25. A rural atmosphere. The rotenburo has clear water with lime, the water temperature is 41.5, and there is almost no view because of the fence. The uchiyu has clear water, with more lime. The water temperature is 40. Breathing feels great. If you end up in this settlement, there should be no question about whether to visit on a higaeri. 13.11.2024
