A blend of two naturally emerging Shima Onsen wells — Iwabun-no-yu and Meiji-yu — sampled from the storage tank where they come together. Sodium and calcium lead a chloride water with sulfate layered in for quiet body: neutral pH, moderately mineralized at about 1.6 g/kg, salty enough to hold its heat well. Metasilicic acid at 106 mg/kg puts it in Japan's beauty-water family, leaving the thin silica film that makes skin feel noticeably smoother afterwards.

795. Ayameya Ryokan, Shima Onsen, Gunma I went for a day-use visit for ¥770. Day-use is listed from 11:00 to 15:00 and from 16:00 to 20:00. 1. Small outdoor stone bath. No view, it is behind a fence. The water is clear, temperature 41. 2. Indoor bath with clear water, temperature 43. It was fine to breathe inside. 13.01.2026
