During this season of lingering fatigue from the rainy season, we recommend refreshing yourself at a super public bath! A sauna will leave you feeling refreshed and light. Here, we introduce the latest healing spa facilities that have opened in the Tokai area.

Refresh-focused! "Spa Aquas Yuyuraku" completely renovated

"Spa Aquas Yuyuraku" in Ichinomiya City has reopened! With a complete renovation, all floors have been reborn.

There are 10 types of baths available for an admission fee of 850 yen (weekdays). They use ultra-soft water drawn from the "Kiso River's underflow water," which is highly reputed for its skin-beautifying effects, and you can enjoy 5 types of jet baths according to your preference.

The highlight is the expanded open-air bath, which is now the size of a tennis court. The newly introduced "Koshikakeyu" (sitting bath) allows you to relax slowly while feeling the hot water flowing from your back.

Also recommended is the deeply constructed "Yuhohsen" (healing bubble spring). You can experience a floating sensation with fine bubbles gushing from the bottom of the bathtub, providing excellent healing effects! The top recommendation is the sauna, which can be entered without additional charge.

The women's bath features the classic Finnish "barrel sauna" and a rare hybrid sauna called "ALOMA SAUNA" that performs aroma spraying along with auto-löyly.

And in the men's bath, a large "stadium sauna" capable of accommodating over 40 people has appeared. By creating steps, the lowest level is 80℃ and the highest level is 95℃, allowing everyone from sauna beginners to advanced users to enjoy.

There are two depths for the cold bath, with the deepest being 152 cm. You can cool down completely from head to toe in this super deep water.

The bedrock bath area, which costs an additional 500 yen, also has a relaxation space where you can read about 6,000 manga for free. With private rooms and spaces where you can lie down, you can relax comfortably.

The bedrock bath is equipped with 5 types, including a floor-heating type where smartphones and manga are allowed, and a classic bedrock bath where you lie on gently warm gravel. It's lower temperature than a sauna, making it comfortable, and it activates metabolism through sweating and detoxification.

A highlight is the entertainment löyly. In the free Aufguss event held once a month, a heat master fans the steam generated by pouring aroma water over heated sauna stones to the rhythm of music.

In addition, there's a cool bedrock bath with air conditioning at 10℃ and a spacious terrace where you can feel the natural breeze, making it truly specialized for relaxation!

The post-bath dining has also been renewed. At "Yunomeshi-dokoro Yuyuzen," you can enjoy dishes such as the "Yuyuzen Gozen" (1,580 yen) with tempura and sashimi, and the "Homemade Pork Sundubu Jjigae" (1,490 yen) which comes with bibimbap.

For a sauna meal, we recommend the "Shiro Betokon Ramen" (1,080 yen), which contains about 10 large cloves of garlic. This local ramen, "Best Condition Ramen," originating from Ichinomiya City, is packed with spicy umami and punch for stamina!

Enjoy breakfast too! "Nagoya Sauna" with the best cost performance

"Nagoya Sauna," a complex facility for gourmet food and sauna, has opened in the Taiko area of Nakamura Ward, Nagoya City! As it is the birthplace of Hideyoshi Toyotomi, the exterior, decorated entirely in gold, catches the eye.

The sauna (1,500 yen on weekdays) is located on the 2nd and 3rd floors of the building, with a stylish rooftop terrace for outdoor bathing. There are two types of cold baths, 15℃ and 9℃, and furthermore, three types of drinks including detox water are all-you-can-drink! The sauna is for men only, but there are also ladies' days.

"Nagoya Meshi" on the first floor is a dining area where you can enjoy sauna meals. The menu is supervised by "Tenmusu-dokoro Keshiki.", a famous popular restaurant in Nagoya, and you can enjoy "KISHIMEN" (1,000 yen) and "Mugen Tebasaki" (110 yen per piece), which has won the Tebasaki Summit GP.

Among them, the recommended signature dish is the "Tenmusu Teishoku" (1,300 yen). You can enjoy freshly fried and freshly made tenmusu, where shrimp tempura seasoned with kelp and a secret sauce is wrapped in refreshing perilla leaf rice. The compatibility with "Ebi Shio" (shrimp salt), which is flavored with shrimp shell powder and dashi, is outstanding!

The "Nagoya Sauna Morning Set Plan" (with 60 minutes of sauna for 1,600 yen), which includes this proud tenmusu and sauna, is a recommended plan available only from 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM! For just 100 yen more than the regular sauna, you can enjoy a morning set with one chicken and one shrimp tenmusu, and a miso soup with seaweed, making it a great value.
