Myoban Yunosato SpringOperated by · 株式会社みょうばん湯の里
Hydrogen Sulfate spring
A strongly acidic spring (pH 2.3) drawn from a naturally welling source in the Myoban district of Beppu. The water is slightly turbid with a faint astringent edge and a strong rotten-egg note of H₂S, giving the sharp, prickly character typical of acidic water that has a long track record on stubborn skin conditions. It also carries a generous 160.8 mg/kg of metasilicic acid, leaving the kind of thin silica film that makes skin feel smoother afterwards.
