Seize the beautiful day on the Osumi Island of Yakushima-cho, covered in gorgeous and dense forest that’s said to have inspired the classic anime film Princess Mononoke. Frolic with native deer, red-bottomed monkeys and migratory sea turtles (as much as you can frolic with a turtle, anyway), while you breathe in the sweet scent of ancient Japanese cedar. Yakushima’s unique eco-system is simultaneously subtropical and subarctic, an environmental anomaly that only enhances the unique and special properties of the island.

Truly, green, magical place, where I was able to see small macaques and native yakushika deer in a verdant green moss forest.

Old wooden onsen with just several small tubs. But, it makes this place special like a place in dramas. - The location is south of Yakushima. Bus stop #98. And it's 10~15 min from there. Travelers must keep track of bus schedule if they don't have cars. - Most visitors seemed to be residents nearby. They came with cars. And very few Japanese tourists. - The water is very hot and it's rare for indoor hot springs. - There's one compartment between men's and women's. It can't cut sounds nor split water. - I liked the owner's cats, too.
