[Senboku City, Akita Prefecture] A hidden gem of a high-quality hot spring ♨️

It's autumn, and the mornings and evenings are getting colder, and the temperature difference between day and night is getting more intense 🍁 Hot springs are perfect at times like this, and a way to enjoy the four seasons that is so Japanese 😊 When it comes to hot springs in Akita, Nyuto Onsenkyo is famous, but just before that is the rustic Mizusawa Onsenkyo, and Motoyumizusawasanso here was a really nice inn 👍 100% natural hot spring water flows freely, and although there are only 10 rooms, there is a large communal bath and a family bath. The hydrogen sulfide spring is rich in sulfur and calcium, and the milky blue water is visually appealing✨ Both the large bath and the family bath have open-air baths, and anyone can use the family bath for free if it is available😁 (even solo travelers are welcome) Private baths usually require advance reservations or a fee, so this is very nice◎ However, regardless of whether it is a large bath or a family bath, the open-air bath is quite deep, with a maximum depth of 1m, so please be careful when bathing with children✋ Stay period: October 2021 #Hot spring #Domestic travel #Tohoku #Tohoku trip #Akita Prefecture #Semboku City #Mizusawa Onsen #Motoyu Mizuzawanso #Large bath #Open-air bath #Private bath #Private open-air bath
