Tojinbo Mikuni Onsen is right near the Sea of ​​Japan. It is a pleasant natural environment where you can enjoy hot spring bathing and sea mineral bathing at the same time. The important thing when bathing in a hot spring is to warm your body to the core, improve blood flow, and maintain that temperature. By taking a little care when bathing, you can further improve your beauty and health.
Eat lots of delicious seafood, enjoy plenty of natural air, and relax in fresh hot springs.
I want to see more! If so, we also recommend Echizen Matsushima Aquarium, which is about 10 minutes by bus from Tojinbo Mikuni Onsen. Let's go on the second day.
