‘Spa Yunosato’ is located at the foot of Mt. Koya. You can experience 10 different types of bath with our SPECIAL waters called GOLD Water and SILVER Water. And also our original mineral water, TSUKINO SHIZUKU is available all for bathing, drinking and meals here! We, all of our staff have been treasuring these waters since it welled up here in 1980s.
Why so cozy, relaxing and comfortable? Here is the perfect place to unwind you after the long journey and experience Japan! When it grabs your interest, just hop on the train! Feel our special waters embracing you! That’ll be one of your memorable days during your stay in Japan!
What’s GOLD Water?
We named it "Gold Water" which is ‘germless water’. But it includes lots of minerals in it which welled up from 50 m underground after the earthquake in 1980s. Drinking Gold Water resets water in your body! And making tea/coffee with Gold Water tastes even nicer!
What’s SILVER Water?
We named it "Silver Water" which is spa water welled up from 1187 m! More minerals and energy are contained! It is also called “ancient water” as this water stayed deep underground for many decades and welled up. Regular users of spraying Silver Water are not only normal skin, but dried or sensitive skin. They feel very different after use.
What’s Tsukino Shizuku?
Due to the above features of our waters, blended Gold and Silver Waters including highly balanced mineral ingredients are our original mineral water, Tsukino Shizuku! It is said that drinking Tsukino Shizuku before and after bath, or during a day is helpful to stay healthy. Lots of visitors/hotel guests travel over here to enjoy our bath, meals and stay at Spa Yunosato and Inn Konono.
And also, we have good reputations from especially people having sensitive skin or skin troubles who feel much better and softer skin after bath.
Besides, not only for people but also let us talk about another example for plants. We grow various kinds of orchids here with Tsukino Shizuku. (Visit our cafe on the first floor at Spa Yunosato!) When we fill flower pot tray with tapped water, the roots rot soon. But Tsukino Shizuku, highly balanced in nutrition-wise mineral water, enables orchids to grow beautifully and live longer when watered and filled pot tray. And they bloom every year and it lasts more than five years! ‘Orchid lovers’ were amazed and they call it ‘unbelievable and miracle effect’!
Enjoy TEN KINDS of baths at Spa Yunosato!!
Before or after bath, indulge yourself with our Yunosato Yakuzen Cuisine with FRESH and HEALTHY ingredients all cooked with TSUKINO SHIZUKU and GOLD and SILVER Water! Our sophisticated expert chefs cook Yakuzen cuisine with FRESH ORGANIC vegetables mostly from Yunosato Organic Farm with innovative approach for you! Pick your favorite from various selections of our authentic Japanese food menu!
Enjoy your meal at our comfortable Japanese tatami room with dining chairs!
What’s Yakuzen?
What is ‘Yakuzen’? ‘Yaku 薬’ = medicinal, ‘Zen 膳’ = cuisine, dishes.
The Chinese character ’Yaku 薬’ in Japanese means medicine. ‘Zen 膳’ consists of ‘月(moon, body)’+’善(good)’. ‘Yakuzen薬膳’ means eat or do something good for our body/health instead of medicine to stay healthy!
Categorizing food in 5 groups for Yakuzen theory and its roles
Acidity (sour taste) | Strain muscles, try not to discharge body water |
---|---|
Bitter taste | Cool down body and calm down inflammation |
Sweetness | Loosen tensed body and neutralize tastes |
Spicy | Warm up body and makes good circulation of body fluid |
Salty | Soften things. Enhance excretion. |
For example, why ‘Sushi’ is not only popular in the world, but healthy? The reason of its healthy and nutritional balanced food is proved with ‘Yakuzen’ idea as Sushi ingredients below belong to :
PERFECT COMBINATION OF YAKUZEN THEORY
