Mitsugi, Onomichi, Hiroshima Prefecture
Onomichi Fureai-no-Sato Natural Hot Spring
A strong half-day destination north of Onomichi for drivers who want published source data, a confirmed source-flowing pool, a choice of 13 baths, dining and space to rest. It is too far away for a quick soak after a short visit to Onomichi Station.
