Tokyo Taito City
Healing inspired by highly purified soft water and a "luxury neighborhood" atmosphere
"Kaieiyu Minowa" is a long-established public bath in Taito City, Tokyo, founded in 1950. Reimagined through a major renovation around the concept of a "luxury neighborhood bath," it uses highly purified soft water pumped up from 120m underground for all the water in the bathing area. The sauna is a serious 100°C-plus experience, with an auto löyly system and hot blasts in the men's bath, and an aromatherapy-infused high-temperature dry sauna in the women's bath. The soft-water bubble bath is astonishingly smooth, and outdoor air bathing in the open-air space is exceptional. With a high-concentration carbonated spring and a silky bath as well, it offers luxurious facilities that go far beyond the standard public bath.
A high-temperature dry sauna that delivers intense heat well above 100°C. In the men's bath, the synergy of a large far-infrared heater and an auto löyly machine creates powerful waves of heat that envelop the whole body. In the women's bath, the fragrance drifting from the aroma pot above the heater enhances relaxation, allowing for high-quality sweating along with a different scent each day.
A cold plunge bath softened further after being drawn from a well and then softened, making it one of Tokyo's smoothest and most mellow bathing waters. Though the temperature is a crisp, refreshing 15°C or so, the fine bubbles from the bubble function gently stimulate the skin and create a revitalizing cooling experience, as if the protective layer on your skin were being lifted away. Its defining feature is the moist, silky feel unique to soft water.
