  • Saga Sawa Onsen
    Shizuoka Izu-shi Kadonohara 400-1
    Counted as one of the Seven Amagi Hot Springs, this hot spring, generating an abundant volume of piping hot water along a clear mountain stream, was named after the Sagano area in Kyoto because of its resemblance to that location. The hot spring is operated by a single ryokan inn, but its abundant flow is used to fill a total of 11 bath facilities, including an outdoor bath, large indoor baths, family baths, and private reservable baths. The waters of the simple alkaline hot spring are gentle on the skin and leave it silky smooth. Located in the center of the atmospheric Shuzenji Onsen hot spring district, derived from the Shuzenji temple, there are many sightseeing destinations nearby, including the Shuzenji temple itself, where Minamoto no Yoriie, the second Kamakura shogun, was imprisoned; Izu's largest waterfall, Joren Falls; and the Old Amagi Tunnel, famously depicted in the short story The Dancing Girl of Izu. After exploring these renowned destinations, you can relax in one of the inn's quiet rooms, all of which have a view of the beautiful Kano River, and take a relaxing soak in one of luxurious baths.
