Nestled quietly within Myoken Onsen in Kirishima City, "Waspreno Sato Gajoen" is a world-class luxury hot spring ryokan where beautiful thatched-roof traditional folk houses have been relocated and scattered along the mountain stream of the Amori River, allowing guests to luxuriously experience traditional Japanese satoyama (village) life. The moment you step inside, you are enveloped in the nostalgia of old Japan, with the scent of hearth smoke and the peaceful crowing of chickens. The 100% natural, free-flowing hot spring water enjoyed in the famous "Rock Bath," carved entirely out of a single massive boulder, is sublime. The traditional Japanese culinary hospitality using fresh local chicken raised on the back hills and organic vegetables is highly praised by international luxury travelers, making it an ideal sanctuary for global visitors looking to completely forget urban bustle and lavishly heal mind and body as if living there.
