Hyotan Onsen, a 100-year-old facility in Beppu, Oita, has gained significant attention after its 'Yumetake' cooling system was featured on TV. Unlike typical facilities that dilute hot spring water with cold water, Hyotan Onsen uses this bamboo-based system to naturally reduce the temperature of its 98°C source, achieving a '100% natural source' experience. The facility is renowned for being awarded three stars in the travel Michelin guide for 14 consecutive years.
