The carbonic acid spring water is slightly alkaline (pH 7.6), potable and reaches 60 degrees centigrade at the source. The main mineral contents of the water are chloride (27 ppm) and organic protein. The water is murky white and smooth to the touch. The springs here were originally known as the Meiji Hot Springs since they were discovered during the Meiji period.
