Kagawa Takamatsu City
A local sento in Takamatsu welcoming guests with a scorching Showa-style strong sauna and a cool cold plunge bath
"Kua Onsen Yashima" is a homely neighborhood sento in Takamatsu City, Kagawa Prefecture. Its biggest draw is an ultra-high-temperature Showa-style strong sauna, known among sauna enthusiasts as the "Hall of Scorching Flames," where you can enjoy an exceptional sweat session in intensely hot air well above 100°C. Right in front of the sauna room, there is a deep, properly cold cold plunge bath. There is also an open-air space for outside bathing, plus a variety of baths such as an electric bath, a tourmaline bath, and a daily-changing bath, so you can enjoy an authentic hot-and-cold contrast bathing experience for less than a coin.
An artificial hot spring with tourmaline placed in the tub. The faint electric currents and negative ion effects generated by the tourmaline are said to promote blood circulation and gently ease daily fatigue and stiff shoulders. You can also enjoy a variety of baths, including an electric bath, a daily-changing bath, and an open-air bath (heated water).
An extremely powerful ultra-high-temperature dry sauna in the Showa strong style, described as the "Hall of Scorching Flames." The room temperature easily exceeds 100°C, and the intense heat fills the room with a pleasantly fierce blast that feels like it is piercing the skin. While watching TV, you can work up a torrential sweat in a short time from the powerful waves of heat. This is a serious, authentic sauna room with a hard-edged character.
A very deep cold plunge bath located right in front of the sauna room, with a depth reaching roughly 110 cm to 140 cm at its deepest point. The water temperature is constantly controlled by a chiller to stay sharply cold and crisp, and the depth cools the body all the way up to the neck in one go. The dramatic temperature difference from the scorching sauna creates an overwhelming sense of refreshment.
[Day-use bathing] 1:00 PM to 10:30 PM (last admission 10:30 PM, closed every Wednesday)
