[Yamagata] Akayu Onsen: Yamagataza Takinami

#AccommodationTrip I stayed at "SAKURA03" A large cherry tree stands in front of the window overlooking the garden, and the room has an open-air bath carved into a huge Zao stone boulder! Apparently, this inn has three bath attendants They manage the temperature of the water that reaches the room directly without ever coming into contact with air! They continue to protect the happiness of those who bathe in the water ~ Thank you 😭 The original cuisine, which uses plenty of ingredients from Yamagata, was also very delicious ♪ The 400-year-old Yakuimon gate that greets you at the entrance is a wonder! It is said that Date Masamune passed through it! ◦⊹⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⊹◦◦⊹⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⊹◦◦⊹⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⊹◦ Spot information 📍In the Heian period, soldiers such as Minamoto no Yoshitsuna soaked their wounds in the hot springs after battle, and their wounds healed instantly and turned red with blood, which is said to be the origin of Akayu Onsen. About 5 minutes by taxi from JR Akayu Station (Shinkansen stops here) #Hot springs #Yamagata #Domestic travel #Tohoku
