Rating
Cost per person
¥500
Located right in front of Unazuki Onsen Station on the Toyama Chiho Railway, the Hot Spring Fountain is a unique landmark that welcomes visitors to the Unazuki Onsen area. This fountain, created in 1973 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the onsen's opening, features warm, natural hot spring water instead of regular water, creating a steamy spectacle, especially during cooler months. It's a popular spot for taking photos and experiencing the essence of the onsen town upon arrival. While you can't soak in it like a foot bath, it's a memorable way to appreciate the abundant hot spring resources of Unazuki.
