Miyanoen

sightseeing

As celebrated in a traditional Sayama tea picking song: "Shizuoka for color, Uji for aroma, and Sayama for flavor." Sayama tea ranks among Japan's top three teas, alongside Shizuoka tea and Uji tea. At Miyanoen, visitors can enjoy hands-on experiences that bring them closer to Sayama tea. Their tea leaf-picking experience includes wearing traditional red aprons (available for rent), tasting the tea you've freshly picked, sampling unique tea leaf tempura, and creating matcha art - all wonderful ways to immerse yourself in both Sayama tea and Japanese tea culture.

Saiboku Natural Hot Spring Kacho Fugetsu
Saiboku Natural Hot Spring Kacho Fugetsu

The bath uses water close to the source, a gensen (hot spring source) 2,000 meters underground. The water is rich in sodium and heats the body to its core. Due to the warming effects of the sodium, the bath is known as "Atamari no Yu" (warming bath). In addition, the hydrogen ion concentration is pH 8.1. This low alkaline water also helps soften dead skin cells, earning the bath the additional name of "Bihada no Yu" (bath for beautiful skin). Please enjoy the exquisite waters from the Kachōfūgetsu source. Also on the premises of this vast facility are a beauty salon, a massage parlor and a refreshing oxygen room. We offer a relaxing environment for each and every customer. (Please refer to the URL below for more information regarding the facility.)
