BESTI was a little confused about where I was going, but I did well. I recommend it.
Famous as one of Kyoto’s top 10 hot springs,
Genji-no-yu hot springs
Experience the real Kyoto hot springs at ‘Genji no Yu’, Uji City’s only natural hot spring facility. Genji no Yu is famous for enjoying hot springs in indoor and outdoor baths with large windows overlooking the garden. After enjoying the hot springs, you can enjoy delicious Japanese food at the restaurant.
The interior is pretty and the atmosphere is nice, so I definitely recommend visiting.
Real Japanese style hot springs,
Kyoto Uji Genji no Yu
Introducing Genji-no-Yu, Uji City’s only day trip natural hot spring. It is a place with welcoming bathroom facilities, including an open-air bath with an old-fashioned Japanese design from the exterior to the interior, and an indoor bath overlooking the garden.
The natural hot spring that gushes from 1,111 meters underground is also called Netsu-no-yu and has a good warming and moisturizing effect. The carbonated spring in the indoor bath uses Kyoto's first nano-rich carbonated spring, so you can enjoy hot spring water like lotion with high penetrating power. There is also a restaurant inside where you can enjoy pork dishes and fresh ingredients, so you can enjoy the hot spring and enjoy a delicious meal. You can do it too.
Get there with the Keihan Pass
Genji no Yu Onsen is located in Uji City. If you have a Keihan Pass, you can get there easily. Then you should buy a Keihan Pass in advance, right?
How to get there using the Keihan Pass:
1. Use the Keihan Pass to board the Keihan Uji Line and arrive at Uji Station.
2. Please come out from the central exit of Uji Station.
3. Board the white van (shuttle bus) with ‘Genji no Yu’ written in Japanese at the center of the circular platform at the central exit.
4. One shuttle operates per hour.
The hot springs are nice and the atmosphere is nice too.
Genji no Yu uses natural hot springs that gush out from 1,111 meters underground, so you can experience your body becoming smooth after enjoying the hot springs. In particular, the atmosphere of the hot spring is so nice that you can really feel the healing feeling.
From restaurants to massages
The restaurant inside Genji no Yu Onsen is famous for being really delicious. The shabu shabu and eel rice bowls are famous for being delicious, and I recommend trying the smoked eggs for dessert.
There is also a separate space inside where you can receive a massage, and it's a great way to relieve fatigue by getting a massage after the hot springs!
