Kinosaki Onsen Town
城崎温泉
Est. 60Toyooka, Kansai
Overview
Classic onsen town with seven public bathhouses along a willow-lined canal, enjoyed in yukata.
A charming traditional hot spring town on the Sea of Japan coast where seven public bathhouses (sotoyu) line a willow-draped canal, each with distinct architectural character and water properties. The centuries-old tradition of onsen hopping in a yukata robe and wooden geta sandals, strolling between baths, browsing shops, and sipping local sake, embodies the Japanese art of communal bathing and unhurried relaxation.
Local tips
Wash thoroughly at the shower stations before entering the bath. This is non-negotiable etiquette. Bring a small towel but keep it out of the water.
