A retro public bath founded in the Meiji era, proud of its 100% source steam mist sauna and drinkable natural hot spring
Michinoo Onsen is a historic public bath founded in the first year of the Meiji era, located in Nagayo, Nishisonogi District, Nagasaki. It features a dedicated mist sauna that uses the hot spring source vaporized as-is, allowing guests to sweat comfortably without feeling stuffy. The cold water bath uses a household-style tub fed directly with the source spring water, letting visitors enjoy the onsen water as a continuous flow. The mild alkaline simple spring is drinkable and gentle on the skin, leaving a lasting warmth. The rest area serves dishes prepared with onsen water, and the Showa-era retro atmosphere offers a soothing, nostalgic experience.
A 100% undiluted simple spring with no added water. This mild, weakly alkaline water is said to be good for the skin, and onsen water is used throughout the facility from the baths to showers and faucets. Drinking the water is permitted, allowing you to benefit from the spring both internally and externally.
A carefully crafted mist sauna that vaporizes the hot spring source directly. The compact room heats up thoroughly and lets you sweat comfortably while being less likely to feel stifling. Inhaling steam that contains hot spring minerals also enhances the refreshing effect.
