A relaxing way to enjoy the mountain area. A group of us shared 2 rooms, one for women and the other for men. You can fill the concrete tub to the water level you want. They charge by the hour and one hour is sufficient. There isn’t much mud in the water as they don’t want to clog up their drainage. It’s best to use both the hot and cold tubs which are therapeutic. There’s a restaurant next door where you can enjoy their popular fish hot pot. The portion was big. Must have the chicken with broth! A great experience!

we thought this isthe location of a actual hot spring. but it isn't. but if you walk up the street all the hotels have nice bathes/spa with hot springs (also mud hot springs). we ended up in hoya resort where we could use their hot springs for 450/person. cap mandatory, which is cheaper to buy from denise shop across the street (50/cap)

Kings garden hotel has good out door hotspring.not very natural outdoor bath,but good aqua spa with nice price. 3$for using the baths. The room condition was not so nice smells like basement but it was ok. The swimming pool had shallow water level. Couldn't really swim though.
