TOURISM OVERVIEW

Arima Onsen

One of the most historical hot spring towns in Japan, to find “golden” and “silver” spring sources, and other long-established shops.

Tenjin Sengen

On to the symbolic hot spring source, the “golden” Tenjin Sengen, with reddish-brown hue. Learn about the healing effects of the hot springs at Arima Onsen which made this town a popular destination for those with chronic illnesses.

Tosen Shrine

Go up the stone stairs to historical Tosen Shrine, known as the guardian deity of Arima Onsen town. Here, two deities who discovered the Arima hot spring are enshrined.

Tansan Sengen

A clear-colored “silver” hot spring source, Tansan Sengen, a cool carbonated spring water. In the past, it was believed that this water was poisonous, but when locals discovered that the water is safe to drink, they mixed sugar into the bubbling spring water to create tasty soda “Arima Cider”.

Stroll around Arima Onsen
