[The spring source preserved for over 300 years since its founding] Yoshidaya has carefully protected its hot spring source over generations, with the instruction 'Do not show the source to anyone.' The natural hot spring, drawn directly to the large bath without any circulation, is entirely unaltered from its original state. Many customers have praised the quality of the hot spring for leaving their skin feeling exceptionally good the morning after soaking in it. Please enjoy our proud spring quality.
