14:10 Kumamoto
Kurokawa Onsen - a hot spring town with dreamy scenery and a lot of delicious food (about an hour and a half, free time, hot spring bathing fees are at your own expense).
Kumamoto has many natural hot springs, but none are as famous as Kurokawa Onsen. There are about 30 hot spring inns in this mountain town. The retro inns with a black-based color are neatly arranged and the scenery is quite impressive. The picturesque river flowing through the town, the thick vegetation, and the steam from the hot springs create a dreamlike view for tourists. The best thing about the hot spring town is the open-air baths that take advantage of the beautiful landscape. Each inn, surrounded by mountains, has its own unique open-air bath. Here, you can fully appreciate the natural scenery and hot springs.
In the "100 Selected Hot Springs in Japan" published by the Tourism Economy Newspaper in 2008, Kurokawa Onsen was ranked first in the "Atmosphere" category. In the "Michelin Guide Japan" in 2009, it was rated as a two-star hot spring area.
Retro street scenes and delectable desserts made from mountain vegetables.
This idyllic town is located in a green valley surrounded by clouds and mist. Even if you don't take a bath, you can still enjoy the pleasure of strolling here. Unlike other resort towns in Japan, Kurokawa Onsen still maintains its traditional simplicity, purity, and traditional style of the past, making people feel like they are in a paradise away from the glitz and noise of Japanese urban streets. The hot spring street not only has inns, but also has a variety of souvenir shops and dining places. From authentic Japanese cuisine made with a large amount of mountain vegetables to delicate and delicious desserts, all types of food are available here.
The healing effects of Kurokawa Onsen
The healing spring water of Kurokawa Onsen flows directly from the hot spring below. This hot spring has been popular for over 300 years. People believe that the natural hot spring water here is rich in minerals and has healing properties. Different hot spring waters have different mineral components, and it is said that each hot spring water has unique healing effects on the body.
The hot spring water from the underground is adjusted to a comfortable temperature for bathing, but guests may still feel that the temperature is too high. Most hot springs have lower temperature baths or outdoor baths, which are helpful for improving blood circulation. You can unwind, soak in various hot springs, and explore the town.

Best prices to get tickets!
Great memories, good price
This app made it super easy to reserve a space and time for our trip to NYC. We usually take the train, but needed a car this time. I usually hate looking for parking, so I tried to find a garage near our hotel. When I found that there was one just a block away I went to their website and saw that they had this app. It was super easy to set up and I found a space and was able to adjust the time and complete my transaction from creating an account to having a full parking space reservation in about five minutes. Unfortunately I ended up having to cancel my trip about a week early so I requested a refund and it was instant with no hassle. I think in general, from now on I’ll just use this app to see if there are other parking garages by the same owner, and reserve spaces in those (if I ever have to bring a car back to NYC - I still like the train better). The only 2 things things that I would wish for are: 1. That they had an option to add the parking pass to your Apple Wallet so I just need to bring up a code on my phone when I get there and they scan it. 2. They allowed you to add a previously booked guest reservation to your current account. I started on the web with the reservation and then got the app and wanted to add the reservation to the app, but couldn’t. I kept the app and will now use it from now on instead of checking out as a “guest” from now on. Overall, a great app.
Bardzo dobra cena kupiłem ze sporą zniżką polecam
Easy to book and cheaper than price at counter. Got the ticket on my mobile within minutes.
Made a last minute pivot in our plans and was able to easily secure tickets at a much lower cost. Highly appreciated and highly recommend! Thank you!
