Dogo Onsen, Matsuyama 2

Posted by Daryl (Amagasaki, Japan) on 29 February 2008 in Lifestyle & Culture.

Another view of the famous bath house. I was also surprised to see it was in the middle of a pretty busy area; you can see the main road going right around the house. I imagined it would be in a more attractive, tranquil setting. But of course this is a functional bath house, built where people can get easy access to it, and the area has developed around it over time. It really is part of the community.
