Sumatakyo Onsen "Bijinzukuri no Yu" is a hot spring that springs up in Sumatakyo Onsen Village, surrounded by the nature of the Southern Alps, and is characterized by its highly alkaline water with a pH of over 9.0. As the name suggests, it has a reputation for leaving your skin smooth after bathing, and is popular among women as a "beautiful skin bath." From the open-air bath with natural spring water, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the valley in every season, and spend a blissful time relaxing both body and mind.

This hot spring village is also known as the gateway to the 98-meter-long "Dream Suspension Bridge," with its beautiful emerald-green lake surface. After enjoying the thrill of crossing the suspension bridge and the spectacular view, relaxing in the hot spring is a standard route for sightseeing in Sumatakyo. The extraordinary experience of the rich nature and the thick hot spring water will make you forget the hustle and bustle of the city.

Since it is a town-run open-air bath, you can easily drop in and take a bath even if you are not staying at a lodging facility. After your bath, you can enjoy the local charm to the fullest at restaurants and cafes such as the nearby Benichiku Shokudo, which serves meals using local ingredients, and there are also souvenir shops.

[Useful points of concern]
The bath is not large, so there is a capacity limit, and on busy days such as weekends and holidays in November, you may have to wait a long time.
