Enjoy the open feeling of "sunayu" and walking around the hot spring town
Yubara Onsen is a hot spring area located downstream of Yubara Dam and along the Asahi River. The hot spring town is lined with a wide range of facilities, including the symbolic open-air bath ``Sunayu'' under the dam, as well as a hot spring museum, footbath facilities, glass workshops, and restaurants, so you can enjoy a stroll. The colorless and transparent water is a simple alkaline hot spring. There is plenty of hot water, and it is effective for neuralgia and sensitivity to cold! It has a deep relationship with the giant salamander that has lived in this area since ancient times, and there is also a conservation center named ``Hanzaki'' and Daimyojin Shrine.
``Sunayu'' was recognized as the Yokozuna of the West in the national open-air bath ranking.
The representative spot, Sunayu, was ranked as ``Yokozuna of the West'' in the national open-air bath ranking. It is built by surrounding a hot spring that gushes out at the foot of Yubara Dam with rocks, and is affectionately known as a sand spouting place (suna bath) because the hot spring gushes out while spewing sand from the riverbed. You can bathe in the sand bath for free for 24 hours! Since this is a mixed bath in an open area, we have taken into consideration the bathing of women, so we also have ``Hanzaki-chan bathing clothes'', which are not see-through clothes exclusively for women, developed jointly with Wacoal Co., Ltd.
Walking around is also fun! Walk along Karangkorong Boulevard and walk around the hot spring town
