About Entaiji-so, Unazuki Onsen
"Entaiji-so, Unazuki Onsen" is a long-established hot spring ryokan in Kurobe City, Toyama Prefecture. Beloved by many cultural figures, including Takehisa Yumeji and Yasunari Kawabata, it offers a serene atmosphere and sweeping views of the magnificent scenery of the Kurobe Gorge as it changes with the seasons. Its clear, mildly alkaline natural hot spring, drawn from Kuronagi, is rich in metasilicic acid and is affectionately known as the skin-smoothing, beautifying bath that leaves your skin soft and supple.
