At Tsukishima Onsen, Tsukishima Kannon

[Cotton] Nov. 29, 2016 12:00

In November, snow fell in the city center for the first time in 54 years, and a full-fledged cold has come.

In such a case, it is best to take a warm bath and warm it from the core. So, I would like to introduce Tsukishima Onsen to everyone.

The location is Tsukishima 3-chome in the middle of Tsukishima Nishinaka-dori, which is famous as Monja Street.

It is located in Tsukishima San Grampa, the same building as Tsukishima Kannon.

First of all, let's visit Kannon.

Tsukishima Kannon is officially named "Shinshu Zenkoji Temple Besin Honshoden Tsukishima Good luck Goddess of Mercy" and is located in the middle of the building at the back of the red Japanese lantern approach.

It was built in 1951, and the main ancestors were Kannon Bodhisattva (Shinshu Zenkoji Temple Omoto wish) and Ikko Sanson Nyorai (repatriated from Zenkoji Temple).

It seems that there are benefits for good luck, discovery of lost items, and healing of the disease, so if you visit and take a bath, you will be more lucky and you will be able to spend the cold winter without knowing the disease.

Take the elevator beside Kannondo to the second floor.

When I entered the automatic door, shoe boxes lined up, and there was a counter-type reception on the right.

I decided to enter the sauna because it's a great deal today.

Once you have paid, you will receive a key for the sauna and a mat placed under your butt at the counter.

The specialty of this hot spring is hot water.

Soft water is used for all bathtubs, showers, and karans.

When you actually use soft water, the foaming when you whipped soap was different.

After flushing, the skin feels smooth

The bathtub is a jet bath. It is comfortable to massage around the waist.

And there is another herbal bath with eight kinds of medicinal herbs.

A lot of medicinal herbs were floating in the cloth bag. This seems to be effective.

Finally, to the sauna that is the most fun today. Those who enter the sauna have their mark keys and mats. If you don't have this, you can't enter it. After using the mat, return it to the basket beside the entrance.

The dressing room is also equipped with a dryer that can be used for 3 minutes and 30 minutes.

The locker is ¥100 (return type), so be sure to prepare some coins.

In commemoration, I purchased an original towel and drank ramune after bathing to enjoy the mood of Showa.
