    Yumoto Onsen

    The oldest hot spring town in Yuda Onsenkyo, known as the place where Masaoka Shiki stayed. It is a bitter sodium sulfate spring that gushes out on the left bank of the Waga River, 4km north of Hottoyuda Station. The word ``Yuda'' originates from the expression ``a place where hot water gushes out from inside the rice fields,'' which was used in the Kanbun era (around 1661-1673), and refers to the current Yumoto Onsen.
