... than double of some other places (700¥). I've never been to an onzen, can't compare if this is worthed. Anyhow, I enjoyed it very much. It was seperated by men and women. I was a bit uneasy walking around with "nothing"; seeing everyone is doing the same thing, who cares. There is an outdoor pool and different pools indoor. We have total spent 1 hr and 15 min for only the onzen, including shower, 'cus we have to catch a train. If I had more time, I could ...

Japan moto trip (Izu Skyline)
... day riding a bike here, and I’d found one of the most wicked routes to ride in my life. It’s a skyline for sure, you get views from the ridgeline across the peninsular east and west and it’s fun just to sit and chill at a look out, watching other motorcyclists cruise by, or ogle the other parked bikes.
