Dogo Onsen Honkan

Matsuyama, Ehime, Japan

A public bathhouse whose main building dates from 1894 and is an Important Cultural Property. It is often said to be one of the inspirations for the bathhouse in Spirited Away, though no single official model has been named. You can still bathe here today.

Please be a considerate guest: keep your voice down, keep paths clear and leave the place as you found it.
