A blended source: water from the Kinugawa-Kawaji Onsen Kanko Kaihatsu No. 1 and No. 2 wells is combined with the Oharasawa municipal spring and sampled at the company's first distribution station rather than at a wellhead. The result is an alkaline simple thermal spring at pH 9.0 — squarely in Japan's beauty-water family, where the alkalinity gives that soft, slippery feel on the skin. Mineralization is light at 474 mg/kg, and the certificate records the water as colorless, transparent, tasteless and odorless, so nothing competes with that smooth texture; calcium and sulfate lead what little dissolved matter there is.

770. Ooedo Onsen Monogatari Premium Kinugawa Kanko Hotel, Kinugawa Onsen, Tochigi We went for a day visit. The price is ¥2200 on weekdays, ¥2400 on weekends, and ¥2600 on busy days. Day-use hours are listed as 07:00 to 10:00 and 15:00 to 00:00 (last entry 22:00). The baths alternate between men and women. The bath photos from the internet match the actual place. 1. First set of baths in the men/women rotation. 1.1. Indoor area. It is fine to breathe inside, but there is a chlorine smell. 1.1.1. Bath with clear water, temperature 42-44 depending on where it was measured. 1.1.2. Cold bath. 1.1.3. Sauna. 1.2. Outdoor area. There is no view, there are as many barriers as possible: two different fences at the bottom, plus an extended roof, fixed blinds, extra blinds on top, and bushes behind all that. 1.2.1. Far bath. Clear water, temperature 40.5. 1.2.2. Near bath. Clear water, temperature 41.5. 2. Second set of baths in the men/women rotation. 2.1. Indoor area. It is fine to breathe inside. 2.1.1. Bath with clear water, temperature 40. 2.1.2. Cold bath. 2.1.3. Sauna. 2.2. Outdoor area. There is a transparent fence at the bottom and solid shutters at the top, so in practice there is no view, but in the morning pleasant daylight comes through. There was a yukemorobi effect. 2.2.1. Three rectangular baths with clear water, temperatures were 41 for two baths and 40 for one bath. 2.2.2. Three polygonal tubs with clear water, temperatures 39, 39.5, 41.5. 10.01.2026 11.01.2026
