Yamaguchi’s northernmost chlorideladen cold mineral spring, with a renovated sauna enjoyed by men and women on alternating weekly schedules
Yamaguchi Hagi City
A day-use hot spring facility located in Shimotama, Hagi City, Yamaguchi Prefecture, near the border with Shimane Prefecture. In April 2022, it reopened after being closed for two years, and was reborn to meet modern needs, with a sauna newly added to the men’s bath and a powder corner installed in the women’s changing room.
TypeNatural Hot Spring
A slightly cloudy chlorideladen cold mineral spring used after circulation heating. Its distinctive water has a salty, astringent taste. Known for a wide range of benefits, including neuralgia, chronic digestive disorders, chronic skin diseases, chronic gynecological conditions, muscle pain, joint pain, frozen shoulder, poor circulation, and convalescence, it is beloved by locals as a famous hot spring that warms the body from the core.
TypeSpecialty Bath
A garden-style open-air bath provided separately for men and women. Set at a relatively mild temperature, it is designed for long soaks, allowing guests to slowly enjoy the benefits of the chlorideladen cold mineral spring while feeling the outdoor air on their skin. With a calm atmosphere unique to this quiet border area, it is also well suited to alternating hot-and-cold bathing after a sauna session and to open-air cooling.
