Iron-bearing

Known good for
  • Recoveryfatigue, stress

An iron-bearing simple cold-mineral spring (14.4 C at the wellhead), heated for bathing in the classic cold-mineral fashion. Iron(II) at 21.6 mg/kg oxidizes on air contact, painting the bath the characteristic rust-red of an akayu (red-water) source. Light overall mineralization at 269 mg/kg, but the iron carries the entire experience — water arrives clear at the spout and stains the tub reddish-brown.

A higaeri spot that's been featured in tons of magazines, rankings, etc. The water is very unusual. Bright orange, slightly soapy, with iron particles. Contains iron ions and metasilicic acid. pH 8.1. The source itself is a reisen (cold spring) — they heat it. 700 yen, tattoos OK.

Finally visited the onsen with red water in Mishima — Takekura Onsen — which I'd been wanting to check out for a long time. The water is bright orange-rusty, and for the first time I saw dark red yu-no-hana (mineral deposits, aka "grandpa flakes") floating inside. The water is pleasantly hot and warms you up super quickly. Inside there's beautiful dark tile and a window facing the fields. Everything is mega run-down and old-school, just how we like it, but no mold smell at all. It's been operating since before the war. In short — really cool, I share Sergey's assessment.

254. Takekura Onsen Minakuchi-sou, Mishima ★★ Public onsen for ¥600 (hours listed as 09:00 to 20:30, except Tue). In the lobby there are many magazine spreads about this onsen. There are also onsen magazines to read. They stamp the Shizuoka 60+6 onsen stamp rally 24/25. Inside, there is a bath with orange water, the temperature is 41-42, and it is easy to breathe. A nice place with water that is special for Shizuoka, recommended to visit. 10.11.2024 11.11.2024
