日帰り入浴で利用しました。露天風呂もありますが、お風呂は決して大きくありません。泉質もよく言えば癖がなく、まあ普通といった感想です。

- Miyagi Miyagi-gun Matsushimamachi
- Visitors to this hot spring district, also known as Taiko Tensen (Ancient Heavenly Spring), can enjoy the scenery of Matsushima, considered one of the three most beautiful areas in japan. The area's springs, beloved by countless numbers of people as a gift from heaven, are fed by a reservoir of rain water accumulated several hundred million years ago 1,500 meters under the ground and heated by geothermal energy. There are three source springs in the area-a simple hot spring, a chloride spring, and a sulfate spring-and their waters are said to beautify the skin and treat such ailments as nerve pain, muscle soreness, stiff shoulders, lower back pain, joint pain, fatigue, sprains, sensitivity to cold, skin diseases, bruises, and hemorrhoids. There are also many nearby places where visitors can experience the history and natural beauty of the area, such as Mt. Tamonzan, Mt. Tomiyama, and Mt. Otakamori; Ogitani (Fan Valley), from which visitors can view four of Matsushima's most picturesque locations all at once; the Matsushima Sightseeing Boats; the Date Masamune Historical Museum, and the Godaido Temple.

Miyagi Areas
Lying along the northeastern coast of Japan, Miyagi prefecture is home to lashings of natural parks, oysters, and hot springs. While the bustling city of Sendai offers some simple city entertainment, it’s the Matsushima islands that deserve the most attention, having boosted the prefecture’s reputation as one of Japan’s most scenic views.
