This time, I stayed at "Shingenkan," a hot spring inn located in Nakagawa Onsen, Yamakita-cho, Ashigarakami-gun, Kanagawa Prefecture! This popular hot spring inn is surrounded by the rich nature and clear streams of the Tanzawa Mountains. The highly alkaline hot spring, with a pH of over 10, is said to be a secret hot spring of Takeda Shingen and is renowned as a "beauty bath" that leaves your skin smooth after bathing. In addition to the open-air bath and large public bath overlooking the stream, you can enjoy three different private baths free of charge. Dinner is a colorful kaiseki meal featuring seasonal ingredients and local flavors. Easily accessible from central Tokyo by car in about 90 minutes, this hidden gem is recommended for couples, families, anniversaries, and anyone looking for a hot spring inn in Kanagawa.
