The finest free-flowing hot springs
A healing bath combining history and freshness
Yusenji Onsen is the oldest hot spring in the Totsukawa Onsen area, and is a famous hot spring that has been healing many people for over 570 years. It is said that Sakuma Nobumori, who was pursued by Oda Nobunaga during the Sengoku period, visited the hot springs for healing. This hot spring, where travelers on pilgrimages to Kumano and warlords of the Sengoku period healed from sword wounds, is a healing hot spring where you can truly feel the breath of history.
Totsukawa Onsenkyo is also famous as the first hot spring area in Japan to declare that it is a "free-flowing hot spring." Here, the water is not circulated or reused, and it is not disinfected with chlorine or heated or diluted, so you can enjoy the extremely fresh, natural hot spring water. The water is so smooth and comfortable that it is truly worthy of being called "excellent."
Surrender yourself to the pure waters and enjoy a moment of bliss born from ancient history and nature.
Enjoy the blissful cuisine of the Kii Peninsula's four seasons
Totsukawa Village is located on the border with Wakayama and Mie prefectures. Here, you can enjoy seasonal ingredients that are unique to the Kii Peninsula, making use of the bounty of the mountains, rivers, and seas.
