Fukuchi Onsen

A quiet hot spring district located in the Okuhida Onsenkyo hot spring village in Takayama City at the foot of the Hida Mountains (Northern Alps). The area's 11 ryokan inns and minshuku bed and breakfasts each have their own unique atmosphere and charm. There is also a footbath in the area which is free to persons staying at a local lodging facility. Located inside a 300 year old Japanese home called the Yadori-yu which was moved to this area, the footbath has a rest area with an atmospheric irori sunken hearth and can be used prior to checking in or while exploring the area. The area's springs are primarily regular simple springs or hydrogen carbonate springs, although the springs operated by some of the inns have more distinctive properties. A morning market is held in the district, and here visitors will find shops selling fresh, local vegetables and other foods as well as local specialty products. Note that when the market opens differs in summer and winter; visitors are particularly recommended search out some hoba miso (miso, mushrooms, meat, and other toppings grilled over a hackberry leaf) as well as a tin of Hida sansho (Japanese pepper).
