Overview

Public community bathhouse at the heart of Kurokawa Onsen, named for the village's protective Jizo statue.

One of two community-run public bathhouses in Kurokawa Onsen, sitting in the town center on the main street. Visitors using the Nyuto-tegata wooden bath pass tie their used disks at the small Jizo shrine outside. The bath is small, communal, and hot. Locals use it daily.

Local tips

If you only have time for one bath in town, this one. The Jizoson shrine ritual is part of the experience.
