🕊️A crane's gift, two thousand years of beauty water

Saga · Furuyu Onsen Kakureisen

1

The Signature Natural Sand Bath

• ♨️Sand was laid over the rock where the spring naturally wells up, protecting it — water seeps up through the sand in a natural bath found nowhere else
• 🕊️Legend holds that in the Edo period, an injured crane soaked its leg here, healed, and flew off — and the spot became known as Kakureisen, the 'crane's miraculous spring'
• 🛁Rather than sand piled over the body, this communal sand bath lets you feel the spring welling up naturally from the rock itself

2

Private Garden Bath and Footbath

• 🌿A private garden bath overlooking a pond where koi swim and seasonal flowers bloom
• 🦶A footbath facing the seasonal garden lets you linger in the afterglow of a soak
• 🍶With baths including Yuzuru-no-yu and Asagiri-no-yu, day-trip bathing is also available from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

A Beauty Spring, Two Thousand Years in the Making

• ♨️Furuyu Onsen carries two thousand years of history back to the age of Emperor Qin Shi Huang, a celebrated spring known as a bath of beauty
• 🧴An alkaline simple ionic spring, prized for water that wraps gently around the skin
• 🩺Said to help with chronic rheumatism, neuralgia, joint and mobility conditions, post-injury recovery, and fatigue

Rooms for Milestone Celebrations

• 🛏️The three garden-facing Crane Premium rooms are 12-mat private suites with Simmons beds and Ryukyu tatami, named for milestone birthdays — koki, kiju, and sanju
• 🪟Modern Japanese rooms set the mood with a 50-year-tended garden, the sound of the river, and ranma transom lighting
• 🌙Choose from Junwashitsu (Beiju), unchanged since the inn opened 60 years ago, up to Hakushushitsu with a king-size bed and 50-inch 4K TV

5

A Kaiseki Meal for All Five Senses

• 🍽️A kaiseki course of four rich flavors meant to be enjoyed with all five senses, with tableware chosen just as carefully
• 🥩Featuring select Saga beef alongside Hizen Sakura pork, Arita chicken, and local seafood
• 🍶Dine in a private room — jazz and ambient lighting at dinner, fresh greenery at breakfast

6

Signature Koi-no-Arai and Dining Rooms

• 🐟The signature koi-no-arai is briefly scalded in spring water, then chilled to firm it up — a house specialty that tones down any fishiness and brings out the umami
• 🏮Choose the low-tech, floor-seated main hall Hinare (up to 24 guests) or the fully private mid-size room (up to 12)
• 🌸Breakfast comes with soothing music and a view of the garden

7

A Century-Old Garden and Nearby Sights

• 🌳A 130-year-old cherry tree, the calls of river crabs, fireflies, and a poem stone by Saito Mokichi fill the garden, lit up at night
• 🛍️A shop selling original soap, incense, hand cream, and shiratama manju adds to the fun of the trip
• 🚗About 15 minutes from Saga-Yamato IC, close to sights like the Yoshinogari Ruins (about 35 minutes) and Taniyama Ski Resort (about 20 minutes)

A beauty spring dating back to the age of Emperor Qin Shi Huang, a natural sand bath born of crane legend, and rooms designed for milestone celebrations come together for a moment you won't forget. True to a name that means 'repaying kindness,' spend a once-in-a-lifetime occasion with someone dear at Furuyu Onsen Kakureisen.
