Warming up Takayama

for 70 years 

Yutopia Spa House opened in 1947, during the turmoil after the war. At first it was called “Inari Yu” after the Jinya Inari shrine next door.

In Takayama, where the winters are cold and there are still many old townhouses, the town’s public baths have long been near and dear to the residents. As the downtown population has shrunk, though, many of them have closed their doors.

Through many renovations, this nostalgic yet modern space has been a place for the locals to relax, and where multiple generations gather to converse in the local dialect. Because we love to see the relaxed smiles on our customers’ faces, we will continue to warm up Takayama for many years to come.

Facilities

Main Bath

Stretch out in the spacious tub and blast those stiff shoulders with powerful jets!

Sauna

Our gas-fired radiant sauna warms the body to the core. Perfect for our cold climate. No extra charge. Men and women on alternate days.

Chinese Herbal Bath

Natural medicines such as Chuan Xiong relieve chills and fatigue. The bath is extra hot from 5 to 7pm every evening!

Warm Jacuzzi

Not too hot, so you can soak for a long time, and with a refreshing aroma that changes weekly.

Natural water drawn from our well is ultra-soft water, at 23.3ppm.

You will love the way it feels soft on your skin and hair.

In addition to a massage chair, there is also an old-fashioned helmet-style hair dryer in the dressing room.

For those of you who don’t remember them, just give it a try!

Bring the Kids!

Wait, I can’t take the kids to a public bath! Can I? No problem. The public bath has long been an excellent place for children to learn about society.
