In 1911, following an extended period of rain, a wall collapsed, revealing a spring when the ground was excavated. Two years later, in 1913, the spring was cleared and deepened, and it was given the name ‘Yin’. It has since become one of the four springs associated with the Seal Society.

Located to the north of the spring, the cliff carving ‘Yin Spring’ was inscribed by Nagao Jia, a prominent Japanese seal carver and an early member of the Society.
The spring operates continuously, ensuring accessibility 24 hours a day, every day of the year.
