    "This public bathhouse, which belongs to the Omaru Ryokan inn, can be reached by crossing the Seri River from the Nagayuyamawakisansaro Intersection and heading east a short distance. The bathhouse may be used by non-guests and is additionally adjoined by an art museum dedicated to artists connected to Nagayu Onsen such as Rikizo Takata and Yasunari Kawabata. Customers can enjoy indoor and outdoor baths filled with water from two different hot springs - a so-called ""ramune"" hot spring whose waters are said to treat high blood pressure and chronic skin diseases; and a hydrogen carbonate spring whose waters are said to treat cuts and burns. There's also a hot spring water drinking fountain, and drinking a suitable amount of this spring water is said to provide a variety of benefits."

    The temperature of this spa is 32 degree celsius. A bit low compared to usual hot springs. Warm seasons will be better to visit here than winter. The bubble spa is outside, because of CO2 generated...

    This lodging facility in Yufuin, Oita Prefecture has select shops, restaurants and bars. It has the concept of doing all they can to satisfy customers and to value all encounters. The guest rooms are also distinctive and many are in renovated kominka (old houses) from the Meiji period (1868-1912) and Showa period (1926-1989). The facility offers a select menu of dishes with the most delicious seasonal ingredients. Its appeal is the ability to spend time surrounded by nature in the remote Yufuin basin. In addition, there is also good access to nearby tourist attractions and leisure facilities.

    I finally get the chance to stay in Sansou Murata with my mother once the pandemic has been treated as endemic. I book again this time for a few accommodations that I stayed in my 2019 trip, only...

    Visitors to this municipal hot spring facility can enjoy a steam bath which involves wearing a robe and lying in a stone hut blanketed with medicinal plants as hot spring steam warms their entire body. The facility was remodeled in 2006 but its history is ancient, having been established by the Buddhist priest Ippen in 1276 and thereafter coming to be known as a health spa. The facility also features an indoor bath where you can wash away the sweat from the steam bath, and an outdoor foot bath which is free to all.

    This was a new experience for me. You first go onsen, and then you go to a small room and stay there for 8 min. It was not like a sauna, this was more comfortable. And the onsen was also clean and...

    Said to have once been visited by the great Buddhist priest Kukai, this hot spring facility’s waters come from the Konya Jigoku (“Konya Hell”) hot spring source. In the facility’s wildly popular mud bath, you can enjoy a natural mud pack soaking your skin in the rich mud from the bottom of the cloudy waters of the spring. The facility features two mud bath types – a pair of separate indoor ones for men and women, and a mixed-sex outdoor bath. The mud baths and hot spring waters are said to aid in easing rheumatism, diabetes, atopy, athlete’s foot, and hernias. The nearest bus stop is Konya Jigoku-mae.

The waters are said to soothe women’s health issues, gastrointestinal disorders, and nerve pain. The facility also has seven private lodging rooms on the second floor and a large common lodging space for groups. Parking available. A two-minute walk from JR Beppu Station.

    This day-use hot spring bathhouse, a 45-minute drive from the Mitsuyoshi Interchange and 50 minutes from the Yufuin Interchange, is located in the Nagayu Onsen hot spring district centering on the Seri River. If you head northeast from the Tenman Bridge, the bathhouse will be visible on the right-hand side. The bathhouse was established in 1781 through the efforts of residents living in what was then Oka Domain. The bathhouse' baths are filled with the waters of one of three different source springs, the waters of two of which contain carbon dioxide. Bathing in their waters is said to treat such ailments as cuts, chronic digestive diseases, and hemorrhoids, while drinking them is said to treat diabetes and gout. Another nice thing about the bathhouse is that it is open from 6:00 a.m., and enjoying a nice, long bath and resting in the bathhouse' free rest lounge is particularly recommended.

    Gozenyu is a public bath in Nagayu Onsen, which is famous for its carbonated hot spring. Unlike many Onsen in Japan, the water of Nagayu Onsen is drinkable as healing water. It contains iron, and has...

    "This day-use hot spring bathhouse is a 10-minute drive from Kamegawa Station and Beppu Station and is not far from the Umi Jigoku and Oniishi Bozu Jigoku, two of the ""Hells of Beppu"" (visually stunning hot springs which are meant to be viewed rather than bathed in). In addition to indoor and outdoor baths, there's a scenic overlook bath on the second floor from which bathers can take in the scenery. The bathhouse also has five private family baths which cannot be reserved, meaning you can choose from among any which are open at the time you come. The waters of the bathhouse' salt spring are said to promote warmth retention and moisturization and customers are recommended to come here for a finishing soak after visiting Myoban Onsen. The bathhouse also sells local specialty products made using the waters of the Umi Jigoku spring."

Oita Areas

around-area-map

A trip to Oita is tantamount to a long soak in the Beppu baths. The mountainous, coastal prefecture of Oita is renowned for having more onsen than any other prefecture in Japan, most of which lie in the city of Beppu on the west coast of Kyushu, recognizable by its pungent sulphuric aroma and the clouds of steam that puff up across the hillside. Away from the Beppu hot springs await mountains, waterfalls, and temples, so don’t hesitate to explore Oita a little further.
