Nishiyama Onsen Keiunkan

As the world's oldest inn (opened in 705), the spring has never run dry since its inception, and in 2011 it was recognised by Guinness World Records as the inn with the world's oldest history.
It has four naturally gushing springs, with a quality of sodium calcium sulphate chloride spring (low tonicity alkaline high hot spring), and is a famous hot spring that has been recharged and gushes out for many years underground in the ‘Fossa Magna’ that crosses the Japanese archipelago.
