Japanese hot springs maniacs show great reverence to Takaragawa
and quite rightly so. Its literal meaning is ‘Treasure River’ and it
slate-tiled pool bubble out only a few meters away from the riverbank. The
alkaline waters are believed to have a therapeutic effect, which can counter
nervous imbalances and indigestion among many other diseases.

Nestled in the narrow crevices, it seems like the nature has willfully
concealed its most precious jewels by the veils of rocks. The pools are fringed
by the seaside rocks and run smoothly when the tide is decent. You can spend
hours plunging in it and in the process soothe your hears by the sound of swooshing
Pacific waters crushing on the rocks.

There’s nothing like frolicking in and around and switching between the
ocean and the natural hot spring. The contrast in the hues and temperature is
something, which will blow away your mind. In the laid back and picturesque
beach town of Shirahama these fantasies comes to life.
Best with the Semitropical Setting

In a country, which is brimming with Hot Springs, this one has got its
own mark. It is Located just next to a rushing waterfall amidst the
semitropical forest. Getting pampers by the warm waters while seeing the mild
sunlight piercing through the dense trees is a dreamy experience.

Perched on to the top of the high natural sanctuary atop the mountains,
this fabulous hot spring doesn’t come easy. You have to complete a day long
trek to dip into its magical waters. The joy of unwinding in the warm waters
mixed with scintillating panoramas of the country side just can’t be put into
words. You can lodge yourself in a rustic thatched woodhouse on the mountain.
I want to hear from you, so let’s get connected friends!s
