An inn in Appi Hachimantai, located in a National Park”In Appi Hachimantai, snow piles up in the winter. During the early spring thaw you can see the blue sky and remaining snow on top of Mount Iwate and the flowers sprouting. In the summer, the green leaves are alive, and in the season of autumn, the mountains are painted red. You can truly enjoy the four seasons of Japan.” (Ken Saito, Shikikan Saito) |
The comfort of ”Danburino Yu”, famous for making beautiful skinThe first thing you will want to do when you first arrive at the inn is to head to the ”onsen”. Spring quality is sodium, calcium and hydrogen carbonate spring. The light alkaline water is soft on the skin, and the sodium bicarbonate content makes the old hard skin softer. The carbonate ingredients soaks through the skin and induces blood flow which makes your body warm. It is understandable that it is called the spring for beautiful skin. It certainly is comforting. |
