日の出温泉 きのこの里 (霧島温泉)
(ひのでおんせん きのこのさと (きりしまおんせん))
Uses natural hot spring water
360. Hinode Onsen Kinoko no Sato, Kirishima, Kagoshima Onsen for 300 yen. Operating hours listed as 10:00 to 20:00. They stamp the 88 Onsen of Kyushu book. They issue Toreco cards for this onsen. An old man came into the bath later and really wanted to chat — he brought a phone right into the bath for the translator. He was curious where I'm from, how I found out about this onsen, which ones I've visited nearby and which I'm planning. After I answered that I'm collecting the 88 Onsen of Kyushu, his interest only grew. Inside: two baths with clear brown, slightly cloudy water. One bath at temperature around 41.5, the second around 44. Outside on a balcony: a cold bath with an excellent view. Recommended for a visit.
