Yasuragi Onsen, whose name means "tranquility", is located in Hirosaki, a city known for its castle and cherry trees, in Aomori prefecture. Sodium-chloride water at 41°C feeds an indoor bath, a rotenburo and a sauna.
Insider tip — Yasuragi, tranquility, is a perfectly chosen name for a spring near Hirosaki where the cherry season brings overwhelming crowds and noise each April. Return in any other season and the castle park, the elegant Fujita Memorial Garden, and the cathedral quarter of this former castle town offer genuine peace.
