[2025 Kobe ] Travel Guide for Kin no Yu Hot Springs (Updated Jun)

I took a highway bus from Sannomiya to visit... Yes!! My long-awaited visit!!! Arima Onsen!!! This time I went to Kin no Yu♨️ The water was golden (brownish) and when it splashed around my mouth I was surprised at how salty it was That's because it has a much higher salt concentration than seawater🤔 The salt creates a thin film on the skin that warms the body from the inside, so it doesn't get cold easily and is said to be effective in improving joint pain and coldness!! I have coldness so if it was close by I'd go there all the time!! There is also a free foot bath next to Kin no Yu 🦵 When I visited, there were many people there, so I gave up, but please do visit it ^^ And above all, I want to tell you about Sudachi Soba... It was so delicious, I wanted to put it in a plastic bottle and drink the soup all the time, so I forced myself to drink a lot (>_<") lol 📍Soba Tsuchiyamajin It's here!! Please!!! Arima Onsen is not only a great hot spring, but the townscape is also very nice and you can enjoy eating and walking around! I would like to go to Gin no Yu as well ♨️ #HyogoTourism #ArimaOnsen #Japan'sThreeMostFamousHotSprings #777 #KinNoYu

I went to Arima Onsen in Kobe, Hyogo Prefecture. ⁡ I didn't know that Arima Onsen is in Kobe city. I was surprised. I had an image of Arima Onsen being far away, but I discovered that it's actually quite easy to get to. You can get from Umeda (Hanshin train) to Arima Onsen by changing trains three times. Did you know that? I had no idea until I went there... The travel time was about 90 minutes, so I was surprised that it was so close. ⁡ When I went there, I realized that there was only a hot spring here. Relax in the hot spring and eat delicious food It's the perfect place for a holiday. This time, I came back after a walk, so I'd like to stay there next time. ⁡ ⁡ #KobeTrip #KobeTourism #ArimaOnsen #Arima #Kobe #kobe #arima #onsen #OnsenManju #HyogoTourism #japantrip #hyogo#oookumachanooo

#Sign up for August hotel test sleeper #100 ways to travel #August good places 2024 Kin no Yu is a carbonated spring with a dark red color. It is a naked hot spring indoors and requires a fee. Towels are also sold there. There is a foot bath outdoors, which is free of charge. The pool near the outlet is hotter, and the water in the farthest pool is too cold. It is not recommended to soak in it. I would still recommend soaking in the indoor pool. The foot bath pool is too cold and the effect is not obvious. Hot spring pancakes are also sold nearby. The crispy texture is pretty good. Two are 100 yen. They are also packaged in gift boxes, which are very convenient to give as gifts. I went there on weekdays, so there were not many tourists, and I didn't need to queue up to take a hot spring bath. It is said that you need to wait for more than half an hour on holidays.

🚄 On this trip, we took the train from Osaka to ‘Kobe’ and then took the train to ‘Rokko Station’ and then took bus number 16 to the tram stop. 🏔️ We bought the Rokkosan Tourist Pass in Thailand. This pass covers all travel expenses for the Rokko mountain tour route. The tram that we took up the mountain is open-air, cutting through the mountain, very close to nature. On Rokko Mountain, there are buses running in a circle and stopping at various tourist spots. We stopped at > Rokko Garden Terrace: a viewpoint, shopping, and dining area > Rokko-Shidare Observatory: a very famous architectural structure in Japan. The creator gave the concept of a large tree standing majestically on Rokko Mountain. Inside is a large hall. The air is cool when it’s hot outside and warm when it’s cold outside. We took the cable car across the mountain to soak in the onsen in Arima Village. At this point, we had to buy a new ticket, but we could use the Rokkosan Tourist Pass as a discount. ⛲️ Arima Village is famous for its golden onsen, which has properties that help relieve colds. Relieve your aches and pains with a foot soak at Kin No Yu, a free pool that can relieve a lot of aches and pains. 🦀 In the evening, we had a buffet of giant crab legs with the night atmosphere of Kobe at Fisherman's Market. Honestly, we think that a port city like Kobe has more to do than we thought. It takes about 2 hours from Osaka, easy to get to by train, and is another city that you shouldn't miss when visiting Japan. 📍 Kobe, Japan

Arima Onsen, one of the three most famous hot springs in Japan, is the No. 1 hot spring in the west. I wandered around without any particular purpose. I walked along the slopes and narrow alleys ⛩　There was a cat 🐾 I was staying at a hostel, so I used the hot springs. I thought one place would be enough, but since I was there, I went to Gin no Yu ♨ → Kin no Yu ♨♨ Gin no Yu has clear water. Kin no Yu has reddish brown water, and it seems to have a salty taste that might work. After the bath, I prefer Arima Cider to beer! The strong carbonation and sweetness were refreshing and very delicious. #ArimaOnsen #HyogoTour #HotSpringTour #777
