A Historical Onsen (Hot Spring) Rich in Taste.

Iwaki Yumoto Onsen has long been famous as one of the three major Japanese hot springs together with Dogo Onsen (Ehime) and Arima Onsen (Kobe). In medieval times it was often visited by warring lords. In the Edo Period it became lively as the only onsen resort town on the Hama-kaido (Beach Road), and in the Meiji Period and later it prospered as one of the few onsen resorts in Fukushima Prefecture, and was visited by a constant stream of Japanese writers such as Ujo Noguchi and Bocho Yamanura. The onsen (hot spring) is a sulfur spring, and with a temperature of 60 degrees centigrade at the source, it is very beneficial for the treatment of female disorders, nerve pain and dermatosis.
