Visiting the Taketa Yusui Springs Group, Oita

In the afternoon, we went to the Taketa Yusui Springs Group (竹田湧水群 Taketa-yusui-gun) in the city of Taketa, Oita. It is beautiful springs located in the western part of the city. These springs are chosen for the best 100 spring water in Japan.

The spring water group is located in the basins of the Ogata River and Tamarai River that is tributary of the Ono River, and from the Aso Mountains as its origin. The total number of springs is about 60 along the Prefetural Road 8 in the Soho (祖峰) district, and the amount of spring water is roughly 60,000 to 70,000 tons per day.

The first place we went is Sensui Yusui (泉水湧水) Spring.
The water site which is known as one of the best drinking water in Kyushu Island.

After that we went to Kawauda Yusui (河宇田湧水) Spring. It's close to the above mentioned Sensui Yusui and has the highest amount of spring water in the Taketa Springs Group, with 350 milliliters per hour!
