Visit Kyushu
The Official Kyushu Travel Guide

One of the largest hot spring towns in Fukuoka Prefecture, Harazuru Onsen has 14 different onsen ryokan (Japanese inn) to choose from. With over 800,000 tourists visiting the rejuvenating baths every year, it’s no wonder this village has quickly become a must-see spot in Fukuoka. Harazuru Onsen sits in an unusual position, giving its onsens access to both an alkaline and a sulfur bath a rarity to find both in a single location. Both baths are said to improve the skin condition and it is because of this that the hot spring has received the name “The hot spring of double beauty.” With various seasonal activities from fruit picking to pottery happening year-round, there is a great range of exciting experiences to be had both inside and outside the hot springs.
