Arima Onsen

Hyogo Kobe City

Arima Onsen

A refined retreat in Kansai that appears even in the Nihon Shoki and is counted among Japan's three oldest hot springs as well as Japan's three famous hot springs. It is a historic famed spa 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 reddish-brown as it comes into contact with 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 powerful onsen destinations in the Kansai area for inbound visitors seeking the atmosphere of a traditional hot spring town and authentic onsen culture.
