Hwaseong alkaline sodium bicarbonate hot spring, pH 9.2.
First bathhouse? Scrub Pass →About this place
NotesOpened in 2000. pH 9.2 alkaline sodium bicarbonate spring from 700m depth. Features charcoal kiln, herb mist sauna, and year-round outdoor bath. The site is in Paltan-myeon, Hwaseong. Five tubs: the oncheon (hot spring) bath itself, a hot bath (yeoltang), a cold plunge, an event bath and a waterfall bath. The venue's own material describes the spring water as smoother than a milk bath. Two saunas — charcoal, which is dry, and herbal mist, which is steam. Heat up in the charcoal room, cut it in the plunge, then take the shoulders under the waterfall bath: that is how the loop falls into place. The outdoor bath stays open through all four seasons, so you can shed the heat outside in winter too. Adults 11,000 KRW. Children aged 24 months to pre-school 9,000 KRW, seniors 65 and over 10,000 KRW, groups of 20 or more 10,000 KRW. Get in before 09:00 on a weekday and the early-bird rate is 9,000 KRW. Doors open at 06:00. Parking is free, and cash, cards and the Munhwa Nuri card all work. It sits 900m from Baran IC on the Seohaean Expressway, so driving is the realistic way in. No Wi-Fi. Enquiries: 031-226-5000.

No booking needed
Just walk in
Places like this do not take bookings. Pay at the counter and go in. Know the steps below and a first visit is fine.
From the door to the exit
- Pay the entry fee at the counter. Many take cards, but a little cash is the safe bet. You get a shoe-locker key.
- Put everything in a locker in the changing room. The bath area is fully nude — no swimwear. Wear the key on your wrist.
- Shower before entering any tub. This is the one rule everyone notices.
- For a body scrub (seshin), go straight to the scrub attendant inside the bath area. Usually cash, and you wait your turn.
- Return the key at the counter on the way out. Some places settle extras (scrub, drinks) at that point.
Good to know
- Men and women bathe separately. In jjimjilbang common areas you wear the provided sauna clothes.
- Large tattoos may be refused at some places. If that concerns you, check before you go.
- A towel is usually provided but small. Scrub mitts, toothbrushes and razors are sold at the counter.
- No photos inside the bath area. Easiest to leave your phone in the locker.
- Prices and hours are compiled from public information and may have changed. If you are coming from far, one phone call is worth it.
