A simple thermal source ('Keihanna Gakken Tennen Onsen') with light overall mineralization — 0.83 g/kg dissolved solids — yet weakly alkaline and soft on the skin, sitting squarely in the Japanese 'beauty-water' family. Generous metasilicic acid (86.6 mg/kg) leaves a thin silica film that smooths the skin, and an unusually high radon content of 90.9 Bq/kg places it in the 'hormesis' radon tradition — a rare pairing in a single-named simple spring.

333. Sukkama Genji no Yu, Kyoto ★ A super sento with onsen water, ¥1,000-1,100, about an hour from Kyoto Station. Opening hours are listed as 08:00-24:00 (Mon-Fri) and 06:00-24:00 (Sat-Sun). They stamp the Kansai 24/25 super sento stamp rally. Very welcoming reception, and the atmosphere inside is pleasant. There is a restaurant, a shop, chill-out areas (including one with vinyl records), massage chairs, manga, and massage. There are various stone baths. The bath photos online only partly match, the bath with stairs is probably from the women’s onsen based on the layout, but it looks very similar. 1. Outdoor area. There is no view, but there is a little bamboo and some trees inside, which add to the cozy feel, especially in the evening. 1.1. Large rotenburo with clear, slightly cloudy water and an area to lie down, water temperature 42. 1.2. Rectangular bath with two levels, 60 cm and 120 cm. At 60 cm, the water is clear, at 120 cm it is clear and slightly blue. Water temperature 38. 1.3. Cold bath. 1.4. Sauna. 2. Indoor area. Easy to breathe. 2.1. Bath with bright green clear water, water temperature 40. 2.2. Carbonated bath, clear water, water temperature 36. 2.3. Sauna. A solid place, worth considering for a trip not far from Kyoto. 04.01.2025
