Atsushio Onsen

【About 650 years of history】 The 'Atsushio Onsen' that started from the divine revelation of Zen Master Gen'o, which warms you to the core.

About a 20-minute drive from the city center of Kitakata. The 'Atsushio Onsen', quietly standing in a tranquil mountain area, is said to have been opened by Zen Master Gen'o, who established Shigenji Temple in this area in the first year of Eiwa (1375), after receiving a divine revelation. It has been cherished as a hot spring since ancient times and saw great prosperity from the Meiji to early Showa periods.

■ An astonishing 65.5 degrees! A 'hot' and 'salty' mysterious spring.

The most unique point of this hot spring is the gap between being far from the sea in the mountains and the fact that it springs forth at a high temperature of 65.5 degrees, rich in salt content.

• The power of the salt spring: The mineral-rich 'salt spring' creates a thin veil of salt on the skin, preventing moisture evaporation.
• Exceptional hydration: Boasting outstanding moisturizing and warming effects, it warms the body to the core.

■ A reliable efficacy that has gathered faith as 'Shoshi no Yu'.

The warmth continues long after leaving the bath, making it difficult to feel cold, which has made it beloved by those suffering from cold sensitivity since ancient times.

• Childbirth spring: It has a long history of being revered as 'Shoshi no Yu (Childbirth Spring)'.
• Ultimate relaxation: Enjoy an exquisite relaxation time as you immerse yourself in the medicinal waters that have been flowing for about 650 years, while breathing in the fresh air of nature.
