Hot Spring & Bath Information

Arima Onsen Kin-sen

TypeNatural Hot Spring

Kin-sen, Arima's world-famous and exceptionally rare hot spring. It emerges colorless and clear, but when exposed to air, the iron oxidizes and it turns a distinctive brownish-red. With a salt concentration about 1.5 times that of seawater, it is extremely high in salinity, and the salt film that envelops the skin provides outstanding warmth retention and moisturization. From indoor baths to open-air baths, you can fully enjoy the smooth, superb cloudy water to your heart's content.

Arima Onsen Gin-sen

TypeNatural Hot Spring

Gin-sen is characterized by its colorless, clear appearance and soft, smooth feel. This water is a blend of carbonated spring and radium spring, gentle on the skin and softly enveloping the body. It is expected to promote blood circulation, boost metabolism, and awaken the body's natural healing powers. In open-air baths and other settings, you can enjoy a relaxing soak that slowly loosens both body and mind while immersed in clear, pure water.
