Takamiya Ryokan Miyamaso - A 300-year old Zao Onsen ryokan with a miraculous spring 霊泉を守り続ける老舗旅館「深山荘高見屋」



【Location: Yamagata Prefecture - Zao Onsen 場所:山形県蔵王温泉】

 Takamiya Ryokan Miyamaso was founded in 1716, and the main building is an elegant wooden Japanese-style structure of 3 floors and with more than 100 years of age.
「深山荘高見屋」は1716年に創業した老舗旅館です。木造和風の3階建ての建物は既に建設から100年以上経っています。

 You can enjoy not only the quaint old-fashioned atmosphere at the ryokan but also the delicious cuisine and the soothing hot springs in the building. The hot water flows from the hot springs into the bathtub using the natural differences in height. It has a cloudy white color and a strong sulfur smell.
 非常に趣のある昔ながらの宿であり、そして館内に温泉が2カ所あります。温泉から湧き出るお湯は自然の高低差を利用して湯船に流れ込んでくる昔ながらの源泉かけ流しのお風呂です。お宿の木造のお風呂で湯治場の風情を楽しめます。白濁した強酸性の硫黄泉です。

Zao Onsen is said to have been founded 1900 years ago, and most of Zao's hot springs are strong acid sulfur hot springs. Strong acid sulfur hot springs have a softening and a detoxifying effect on the keratin. It is believed to be good for skin diseases, and that it can not only heal cuts but also improve frail health.
蔵王温泉は開湯1900年前と言われていますが、蔵王の湯はほとんどが強酸性硫黄温泉。強酸性硫黄温泉には、角質を柔らかくする効果やデトックス効果、皮膚病や切り傷、虚弱体質に良いと言われています

Extra: The Warabi no Sato Museum
This museum is a part of the Takamiya ryokan group, and they even have their own museum where artifacts from the inn are on display. It is a museum where even the buildings are worth looking at. The entire buildings have been relocated from inside and outside Miyagi prefecture.
