Stay in Arima Onsen
A refined retreat in Kansai that appears even in the Nihon Shoki and is counted among Japan’s three oldest onsen as well as Japan’s three great onsen. It is a historic onsen beloved by Toyotomi Hideyoshi. Its biggest distinction is that you can enjoy two completely different types of spring water at the same time: Kinsen, rich in iron and salt and turning a cloudy reddish-brown as it meets the air, and Ginsen, which contains carbon dioxide and radium and is colorless, clear, and gentle on the skin. With excellent access from Osaka and Kyoto, it has become one of the most compelling onsen destinations in the Kansai area for inbound visitors seeking the atmosphere of a traditional onsen town and authentic onsen culture.
