"Matsushiro Onsen" is a legendary hot spring known for its healing properties. It is said that Nichiren, the eminent Buddhist priest, bathed in this hot spring twice before and after his exile to the island.
During the 16th-century Battles of Kawanakajima, Matsushiro Onsen also served as a hidden hot spring for Shingen Takeda, healing the wounds and fatigue of his soldiers.
Spend some time relaxing in this high-quality space, where the calming sound of water resonates in the peaceful silence.
