GanbanyokuAbout
Michishio is a large day-bathing complex outside Sanyo-Onoda, drawing water from two of its own hot spring sources, Itone and Oki. Both feed the indoor and open-air baths, and the water is noticeably salty. Around the main tubs are a water-massage bath, several jet baths, an electric bath, an infrared sauna and a cold plunge, plus a women-only ganbanyoku rock-bed dome. Two rest halls and an attached restaurant round the place out, with the feel of an old-school neighborhood bathhouse rather than a quiet ryokan bath.
