A 100-yen neighbourhood bath on Route 10 next to the Don Quijote store, walkable from Beppu Station, with a large free-flowing sodium bicarbonate tub. The water often runs very hot and nobody is on duty, so greet whoever is already in before you start adding cold water.

Scored from official photos, maps and transport information — not from a visit.

The baths

Sodium bicarbonate spring, free-flowing. Large tub by neighbourhood-bath standards. The water often runs very hot, so if someone is already in, greet them before adding cold water. Unusual entrance with the men's and women's doors set diagonally opposite each other.
