Higashiyama Onsen, Aizuwakamatsu, Fukushima Prefecture
Onyado Toho, Aizu Higashiyama Onsen (Day Use)
A good match for elevated views and a layered outdoor-bath design. Day-use hours are short and must be confirmed in advance; guests with tattoos should not plan to use the public baths.
Check before bathing

Spring & water temperature
- Spring-source temperature
- Not published.
- Bathing temperature
- Not published; fixed temperatures for each pool are not listed on the current page.
- Spring source
- A precise spring-well name suitable for this profile is not published on the current individual facility page.
- Spring classification
- Sulfate spring.
- pH
- Not published.
- Flow rate
- Not published.
- Water handling
- The inn states that both source-flowing and recirculating systems are used. Water is heated and added for temperature adjustment in the recirculating system. Neither Sora-no-yu nor Tanagumo-no-yu is described as entirely pure source flow.
Bathing indications
The inn lists general sulfate-spring bathing indications including cuts, chronic skin conditions, sensitivity to cold, muscle and joint pain, and fatigue. These are not a medical treatment guarantee.
Day-use admission is available only during a short window and requires advance contact; do not assume overnight-guest bath hours apply to outside visitors. Guests with tattoos or irezumi are explicitly refused.
How to read a bath profile
Spring-source temperature and actual bathing temperature are kept separate. Each score is shown independently for comparison rather than collapsed into one overall score.
