At the approach to the Misasa Bridge that leads to the center of the hot spring town is a staircase, and there’s a stone bath and foot bath erected on the riverbed. It is known throughout the world for its 24-hour radium spring situated amidst the rich rustic landscape. While there are a simple dressing room and barrier on-site, it is in full view of passerby, so women and tourists often use it at night. Bathing suits are not allowed. Depending on the day, the bath may be closed from 8 a.m. until 11 a.m. for cleaning.
