Ryusenji no Yu Nagoya Moriyama

Ryusenji no Yu stands on high ground in Moriyama Ward, Nagoya City, Aichi, a popular bathing facility. Known as a birthplace of the super sento and of high-concentration carbonated springs, it gained wide fame for adopting carbonated baths ahead of the rest of the country. Its scenic perch above a curve of the Shonai River adds to the appeal.

Highlights

- High-concentration carbonated baths with fine bubbles, introduced ahead of others nationwide - A history as a birthplace of the super sento - Scenic open-air baths looking down on the Shonai River and distant ranges from the heights - A varied lineup of indoor and outdoor baths plus saunas

Enjoying the Seasons

Because carbonated water aids circulation, it feels especially pleasant in winter when the chill sets in. In summer the breeze on the heights brings cool relief after a soak, and on clear days the view reaches distant mountains. Spring and autumn bring mild weather for relaxing over the open-air view. Bath-hopping can be enjoyed throughout the year.
