    Kagoshima Ibusuki-shi Jutmachi 1068

    弥次ケ湯、大黒湯ともナトリウム泉ですが、大黒湯は少し金気臭がします。建物、風呂場共に昭和を超えた、骨董的な雰囲気がいっぱい。大黒湯の2階は休憩所になっていて、古びた階段を上がればテーブルと座布団がきちんとセットしてあり、浴後の休憩にこれ以上のものはありません。

Over 100 active volcanoes across Kagoshima make it one of the Japan's most exciting prefectures. The prefectural capital, Kagoshima city, looks out to one of the prefecture’s most spectacular volcanoes, Sakurajima, an island of its own that can be visited and seen close up or admired from afar, with the promise of breathtaking sunsets complete with frequent puffs of smoke and ash. Down the Satsuma Peninsula, the most southerly part of mainland Japan, waterfalls, sand onsen, and fascinating history await, while Kagoshima's abundance of satsuma imo (sweet potato) provide a wholesome snack as well as one of Japan's favourite drinks - shochu.
