Other Hot Springs

These are some hot springs that I have not been to yet, but plan to go to in the future. The photos were scanned from various tourist pamphlets.

Kaniyu in Tochigi prefecture.

Kawamata, also in Tochigi.

Yu no koya, or bath hut, in Japanese.

A hot spring on Shikine Island south of Tokyo.

If you are interested in natural American hot springs, check out Steve Karl's page! Another good page is Jens Olsen's Hot Spring Index , which has comprehensive coverage of natural Japanese hot springs. Or try Nick's Guide to Onsens in Japan
