While rounding off his visit to Himachal Pradesh with Tattapani (translated, Dec. 23):

'Tattapani hot spring in Tattapani ♨️ free here Tattapani is under the influence of the three years before the dam is field temperature that has been put in the river submerged
It was pretty sad now remains, of small over hot water and the hotel spa only bathtub one spring quality is a free-flowing sulfur odor considerably in hot water acceleration and 43 ℃ before and after

I believe he mentions that the (natural) hot springs are now submerged.
From the same date, an entry on the above mentioned hotel:

'Tattapani hot spring in Tattapani ♨️ bathing fee 600 yen here Tattapani is under the influence of the three years before the dam is field temperature that has been put in the river submerged remains Currently, only the hot springs of small over hot water and hotel hotels name Sandhya Hot Spring Health Care Tattapani

So! I finally did it! It feels so good when a 'fear' or an internal obstacle is overcome! 😎 In Japan, I lost the opportunity to enjoy the wonderful hot springs this country offers, this was because you are reqiured to enjoy them completely naked! 😱 I couldn't imagine myself getting into a hot tub lluuuucha!! (naked) with complete strangers and also with not that completely strangers! 😱😱 Even though we are from the same gender... 🙈🙈 So, after this, my 'modesty' became a personal issue to overcome (juuuust for hot springs! 😜). Aaand here I am! These are the Garam Chashma Hot Springs, not only hot, not only naked but also open-air! The bystanders at the back were waiting for tourists to get into the pool! 🧐🧐 Of course, I sent them my regards! 🤪.#tajikistan #travelwoman #freesouls #wanderlust #ewetjourney #thePamirs #passionpassport #letsgosomewhere #traveltheworld #hotsprings #mytinyatlas #theglobewanderer #neverstopexploring #dametraveler #globetrotter #planetdiscovery #roamtheplanet #travelstoke #unlimitedparadise #traveldeeper #exploringtheglobe #tasteintravel #bbctravel #doyoutravel #welivetoexplore #cntraveler #livetravelchannel #travelawesome #viajar #traveladdict

Heading over the water divide, above Tajikistan's Garm Chasma.
Below a rarity on this blog, a soak with no soakers! Kyrgyzstan apparently.

krishofs at Kyzyl-Suu:

👌Hot spring i Kyrgyz••••#kyrgyzstan #denstorekultureisen2019 #uazbuhanka #hotspring #travel #explore #4x4 #offroad #sonya6500 #HofstadNET

I looked up more info on this soak. A very confusing picture. Kyzul Suu is a village:

'Kyzyl-Suu is named for the "Kyzyl-Suu" river that runs through it'.

Visit Karakol adds:

'We offer you a tour to “Juuku” Hot Springs which is located in Chon Kyzyl Suu village 50-60 km west from Karakol. There is also a cave “Kyzyl Unkur” , the remains of Borombai manap’s life, who lived here in the 19th century and the rock "Sim-Sim Open". The hot springs leak in two buildings built in the form of yurt. The Capacity of each pool – 10-15 people. The duration of bathing not more than 30 minutes because of high temperature and radon.

But is the first photo above the size of a yurt? Or does the photo below fit the description better? Also VisitKarakol:

baibol.kg provided me with this info:

The Kyrgyz region is rich in beautiful reservoirs. Among them, mountain rivers and lakes of glacial origin predominate. In addition to them, there are several unique natural thermal springs in the country. They are divided by size, temperature regime and chemical composition of water. But one quality unites them: unconditional benefit for human health. To one of these natural health resorts are the thermal springs of Jyluu-Suu, which are located in the Issyk-Kul region of the country. The deposit of warm springs is located in 55 km from the city of Karakol, at an altitude of 2390 m above sea level. For the convenience of taking baths here was built two swimming pools, separated by a solid wall. They are in a concrete structure, made in the form of a yurt - the national home of nomadic Kyrgyz. Pools are designed for an average of 12 people, the water in them flowing. The temperature of the sources ranges from 32 to 45 degrees Celsius. The deposit refers to chloride-sulphate-sodium, with weakly mineralized water. Staying in Jyluu-Suu helps in the fight against diseases of the musculoskeletal system, skin lesions, various inflammations and diseases of the gastric system. For those who have problems with the respiratory system, it is recommended to visit the saline room located here. The residence time in water is limited at a time, and should not exceed 20 minutes. There are contraindications for people suffering from hypotension, hypertension and heart diseases. A walk through the area will give a lot of new impressions: along the gorge the magnificent Kyzyl-Suu river rolls its majestic waters. Also Kyzyl-Unkur Cave is nearby. The best time to travel to the thermal springs of Jyluu-Suu is the summer-autumn period.

So do we refer to these as Kyzyl-Suu? Or Jyluu-Suu (or alternatively Dzhyly-Suu)?

BBC (Jun. 20, 2013):

'I could have stayed in the Kerege-Tash Valley for a season, but a few days ride and one or two yurt visits later it was time to head south to the long-promised Jyluu-Suu hot springs on an old caravan route that once linked with the Silk Road. The springs are oddly set inside a rustic blue and white hut in the middle of nowhere, looking out onto spectacular valley views. After almost a week in the saddle, the bath came not a moment too soon'.

But Dzhuly-Suu also refers to a place north of the Elbrus (source):

'In the northern part of Mount Elbrus there is a tract of Jil-Su. It is a unique and beautiful place of Kabardino-Balkaria. Gili-Su is translated as «warm water» and is widely known for the healing qualities of mineral water. More than fourteen sources are scattered along the tract in the upper part of the Malki River at an altitude of 2380 meters. Struggling from under the ground hot narzan has unique healing properties, is saturated with mineral and organic substances. And it is translated as «a drink of the hero». He is considered to be the main source of strength for the tribes of the sled that lived in ancient times. The water temperature is quite high, it is plus 22-24 degrees'.

So where are we?

Anyway, elsewhere in Kyrgyzstan, a photo accompanying a Czech report by outdoorito to the hot springs of Altyn-Arashan:

Finishing off with Mongolia:
