[A source of healing in the pottery village] A moment of soothing hot spring bathing at "Hongo Onsen Yutori"
A historic town of craftsmanship lined with kilns of Aizu Hongo pottery. Standing on a small hill overlooking the town is "Hongo Onsen Yutori". As the name suggests, this place adds "relaxation" and "healing" to your journey through the pottery village, wrapped in the laughter of local people and the warmth of high-quality natural hot springs, making it a soothing base for your heart.
■ The wind crossing the basin and the "beautiful skin hot spring"
Yutori's pride lies in its rich spring quality that warms the body from within and smooths the skin.
- Warmth of the spring: The sodium-chloride and sulfate spring water is characterized by its lightness, yet the warmth lingers long after bathing. It gently envelops your pleasantly tired body after creative activities or walks.
- Scenic open-air bath: If you immerse yourself in the open-air bath, you will be greeted by the idyllic rural landscape of the Aizu basin and the majestic figure of Mount Bandai in the distance. Bathing while watching the flowing clouds and listening to the sound of the wind is a blissful moment that liberates the senses.
■ A relaxing space to share travel memories
After bathing, you can enjoy the "air of the village" in the spacious relaxation room.
- Temperature of life: Inside the facility, local crafts and specialties are displayed, creating a warm atmosphere where locals and travelers naturally blend.
- With the afterglow of pottery: If you visit after kneading the clay and shaping your vessel, you can spend a luxurious time soaking in the hot spring while pondering, "What kind of work will it turn out to be?"
Gaze at the chimney of the kiln in the distance and surrender yourself to the golden waters. Why not indulge in the "ultimate relaxation" woven from the emotions unique to the pottery village and the nature of Aizu at Yutori?
