A hot sodium chloride spring rising at a remarkable 93.2 °C wellhead temperature — one of the hottest sources in Beppu's catalogue. Weakly acidic at pH 6.67 and moderately mineralized at 3.76 g/kg, with chloride dominating the anion profile and leaving a salty, heat-retaining film on the skin after bathing.

82. Kurodaya, Beppu Hotel — came here for higaeri. Stamp given at reception. They said to select something for 700 from the vending machine to get in. Inside the hotel is cool. Indoor bath in stone. Very pleasant atmosphere, high ceiling, easy to breathe. Blue water, temperature reading showed 38-39. Outdoor bath also with blue water, felt about the same temperature as the indoor one. There's a sauna and a cold water bath. Recommended for a visit.
