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 ★★ A hotel, I was here for a day trip. They stamp your card at the reception. They said to choose something for ¥700 from the machine to get in. Inside the hotel is nice. The indoor bath is a rock bath. The atmosphere is very pleasant, the ceiling is high, and it feels easy to breathe. The water is blue, and the temperature was listed as 38-39. The open-air bath also has blue water, and the temperature felt about the same as the indoor bath. There is a sauna and a cold bath. It can be recommended for a visit. 29.04.2024
