An ancient hot spring resort boasting one of the world's leading radon contents, with the name's origin meaning "healing illness by welcoming the morning three times." The atmosphere of a good old Japanese hot spring town remains, and the bridge over the Misasa River and the "Kawara Buro" (open-air bath along the river) symbolize the original landscape of Japan full of openness. It is said that the water here enhances health not only by soaking but also by inhaling and drinking, ideal for modern travelers seeking mental and physical detox. Walk the alleys lined with retro amusement halls and target ranges, and receive warm hospitality at traditional Japanese inns. A place where you can deeply experience Japan's hot spring cure (toji) culture.
