Fukuoka Okawa City
Enjoy a rare moor spring and alternating bathing with a spring-fed mist sauna and cold spring
Okawa City day-use hot spring Okawa Onsen Kihada Bijin Midori no Yu. Its biggest appeal is a moor spring rich in fulvic acid that is enjoyed as a continuous non-recirculated flow. The large bath area includes indoor and open-air baths, plus a mist sauna fed by the spring source and a spring-fed cold plunge bath. Alternating between the hot spring and the cold spring is recommended to promote circulation. There are also private family baths for rent and a dining area, and combining a bath with local dishes such as steamed eel served in a seiro (bamboo steamer) is popular. A tropical-style relaxation area lets you unwind comfortably after bathing.
A rare moor spring enjoyed as a generous continuous flow from the source. The greenish-brown cloudy water has a silky viscosity and a moisturizing quality that seems to cling to the skin. You can enjoy multiple baths including indoor baths, open-air baths, and rock baths, making it popular with onsen fans seeking smoother, healthier-looking skin.
A mist-style steam room using the hot spring source water. Set at a temperature close to body temperature, it is designed to encourage gradual sweating. It is easier to relax here than in a strong dry sauna thanks to the high humidity. Located in the outdoor area, it is convenient for going back and forth between the cold plunge bath and the hot spring baths.

A cold plunge bath using the spring's cold water. Rather than a sharp, icy chill, it offers a mellow cooling that retains the feel of the spring's minerals, making it well suited for alternating hot and cold bathing. The deep tub allows for a relaxed cooldown.
