Impression

It is the large hot spring of a mixed bathing. Netu-no-yu (a main bath) is decided to the male place and the female place. Ladies are soaked in the right of a bath. Males are soaked in the left. Since hot water is cloudy, ladies are soaking without caring about males. (Here swimming suit prohibition) Hot water is very sour. The temperature of Netu-no-yu is high.

This side of the photograph is Netu-no-yu. The other side is Shibu-rokubu- no-yu, the left is Rei-no-yu, and the right is a cascade bath (Shika-no-yu). The recipe of a hot-spring cure is as follows. Netu-no-yu 5 minutes, and Shibu-rokubu- no-yu 5 minutes, and Rei-no-yu 3 minutes, and cascade-bath 3 minutes, and Netu-no-yu 3 minutes
