Kusatsu Onsen Yubatake

The Yubatake hot spring field, with its steamy steamy smoke, is the largest source of hot spring water in Kusatsu Onsen, with the largest natural gush of more than 32,300 liters per minute in Japan.

The temperature is lowered to an appropriate level by pouring the hot water into a series of flumes, and the hot spring water that accumulates at the bottom of the flumes is collected.

Western-style painter Taro Okamoto designed the entire structure, which is shaped like a gourd.
