Narita Meisen Yamato no Yu: Day-Use Hot Spring Prices
This is a day-use natural hot spring set amid the peaceful rural scenery of Narita. With a concept of a space where adults can relax quietly, it has a calm, settled atmosphere. Its location, easy to combine with Narita Airport or a visit to Naritasan, is another draw.
Highlights
The highlight is the distinctive amber-colored spring water. A sodium chloride and bicarbonate cold mineral spring, its smooth, silky water can be savored slowly from the outdoor bath while looking out over the fields and sky. In this quiet setting, you can refresh both body and mind.
Enjoying the Seasons
In spring, water fills the surrounding rice paddies, and the morning and evening light is beautiful. From the green of summer to the golden ears of rice in autumn, you can enjoy scenery that changes its expression through the four seasons. In winter, a warming soak is just the thing.
