    Kumamoto Kikuchi-shi Wai
    A hot spring district located in northern Kumamoto Prefecture in Kyushu; developed in 1954, the area's hot spring baths are filled with nothing but 100% natural hot spring waters. These waters are colorless, alkaline, and gentle on the skin. In 2011, the district was selected as one of Japan's 100 most famous hot springs. It is believed that the hot spring waters here were discovered after digging in the ground according to the instructions given by a white dragon in a dream. The Kikuchi White Dragon Festival, held each year in August, re-enacts the legend, and many tourists come to see huge white dragon puppets, 50 meters long and weighing 50 kilograms, as they wind their way through the city's streets. The district is also full of places to enjoy natural beauty and history, such as Gosho-dori Street, a road which leads straight to the approach of Kikuchi-jinja Shrine; and the Tsuiji Ide, a waterway created during the Keicho era by the samurai lord Kato Kiyomasa.

    今回の九州旅行に行くまで、菊池温泉をはじめとする熊本県本部の温泉については、まったくその知識がありませんでした。行くにあたって調べてみると、このあたりには「美人の湯」として評判の温泉が点在していることを知りました。 菊池市の市街地にもいくつもの温泉宿が建っていましたし、市の中心部にある「きくち観光物産館」には、立派な足湯もありました。別名「美肌の湯」「化粧の湯」といわれる菊池温泉は、アルカリ性...

    A hot spring district boasting a 1,800 year long history. Bifurcated by the Tsuetate River, steam rises from the ground throughout this hot spring town known as the retreat of the Kyushu region.

This hot spring district remains beloved by many today. Tsuetate means standing cane, and according to legend this name is derived from people leaving their bamboo canes standing here, which then grew leaves and branches. The town is dotted with 26 source springs, and the waters gushing forth from colorless mildly saline common salt springs forms part of the town's lovely scenery. The Michikusa Annainin-kai society provides local guides with which visitors can talk and explore the area, and one fun activity is to stroll amidst the area's old fashioned townscape and many bathhouses.

    杖立川がつくる渓谷沿いに、杖立温泉がありました。杖立温泉の温泉街を南へと抜けると、杖立川に架かる橋があって、その先で国道と合流します。その橋を渡らないで、川沿いの狭い道を少し進むと観音岩温泉にたどり着きました。 杖立川の河岸に並ぶ観音岩温泉は、家族風呂の専門温泉です。まるで街道のように川沿いに並んだそれぞれの部屋は、扉を開くとそれぞれに全く違ったお風呂が備えられているそうですよ。

  • Yamaga Onsen
    Accommodations / Hot Spring
    Kumamoto Yamaga Yamaga
    This ancient hot spring appears in the Wamyo ruijusho , a dictionary compiled in the Heian period. The area generates an abundant flow of piping hot water, so much so that a poet once stated, the thousand tubs of Yamaga are not enough. The colorless, tasteless, and odorless waters of the simple alkaline hot springs found here range in temperature from 38 to 45° C and are notable for their smooth texture. Bathing in these waters is said to treat nerve pain and gastrointestinal disorders in addition to aiding recovery from fatigue, while drinking them is said to regulate the autonomic nerves and expand constricted blood vessels. The district is dotted with traditional ryokan inns and hotels as well as day trip bathhouses and footbaths. The Yakushido temple stands next to the Sakurayu bathhouse, identifiable by the distinctive cusped gable over its entranceway; each year on December 20 the temple holds a festival to give thanks for the restoration of the flow of the hot springs in the area, which suddenly dried up in 1473 and only started flowing again after the building of the temple and much prayer.

Visitors are particularly encouraged to try the hell-steamed chicken, a hotel specialty which involves steaming chicken meat using hot spring steam.
