Toyotomi Hideyoshi loved Arima and kept coming back to bathe. The town is a small knot of steep lanes and wooden inns, with shops selling tansan senbei, thin crackers made with the local carbonated water. Taiko no Yu, the big spa complex, takes its name from his title.
Soak in Arima’s gold and silver springs at Taikounoyu, with indoor and outdoor baths, saunas, rest areas, and an easy trip from Kobe.
Most Popular★ 4.5“The relaxation area is spacious, and you can freely use bath towels, making it very comfortable. The hot springs were also excellent, with a wide variety including a sauna, Goemon bath, Kinsen (gold spring), Ginsen (silver spring), and carbonated baths.”
