About

Naka no Yu (中の湯) is one of three shared baths in the Arayu (新湯) area of Oku-Shiobara. The bath itself is a single indoor tub, no washing area, just a changing basket and a coin box at the entrance. The spring source sits right beside the building, and the milky white sulfur water runs direct from it. Nobody is on duty; drop in your coins and soak.
