TakamatsuShionoe Hot Springs

images

Shionoe Hot Springs, located in the southern part of the city of Takamatsu, are known as the oldest hot spring area in the prefecture. Refresh yourself in a relaxed atmosphere, surrounded by unspoiled nature. Traditional ryokan (Japanese inns) and day-use hot spring resorts are located here.
The hot springs are said to have been discovered in the Nara period (710-794) by the Buddhist priest and missionary Gyoki. In addition, the founder of the Shingon sect of Buddhism, Kukai, trained in this area and spread the word about the region’s healing waters. Thus, Shionoe has always been a historically important area, curing many people since ancient times.
The hot springs change their appearance in accordance with the seasons. The cherry blossoms of spring, the fireflies of summer, the fiery foliage of autumn, and the snowy landscape of winter—surely these scenes will attract you. Make sure to also try amago (masu salmon) or wild boar. The nature of Shionoe will always be here to entertain and delight you.
