Jozankei Gensen Park

Jozankei Gensen Park was opened in 2005 on the 200th anniversary of Miizumi Jozan's birth, who was an ascetic monk and is said to have provided the foundation of Jozankei Onsen. On the premises, there is a recreated scene of Jozan finding the hot spring as well as his statue and various hot spring facilities.

The premises have foot baths and hand baths filled with the source spring of Jozankei Onsen. Many love to casually enjoy the effects of Jozankei’s sodium chloride spring water. There is a trail through a replica of Jozankei’s forest. Take a walk on the trail, and if you get tired, there are foot baths and hand baths to warm your hands and feet.

Another popular spot is the “Ontama no Yu (Hot Spring for Onsen Eggs)” You put raw eggs into the hot spring with the temperatures set to 70-80°C to make boiled “Onsen Eggs.” Jozankei Product Shop is in the neighborhood which sells eggs in a mesh bag. Many buy these eggs and try boiling them as a memory of the Jozankei Park.
