先日の旅館青年部の集まりで白馬八方温泉の「五龍館」にお世話になりました。当然、お風呂に入りました。旅館青年部って、贅沢やな。

白馬八方温泉は、pH値-11.28が全国トップレベルの強アルカリ温泉です。戸倉上山田温泉のお湯はpH8.6で肌がある程度ですべすべになりますが、この八方温泉によるはだの感覚は初めてやな。美人の湯って、こんな感じだね。

長野県は本当に良い温泉で恵まれている!

On our recent gathering at Hakuba, the Nagano Prefecture Junior Innkeepers stayed at Goryukan. Of course, we got to enjoy Goryukan's onsen bath -- 'tis a rough life, eh?

Hakuba Happo Onsen's most distinct feature is it's highly alkalid pH -- 11.28. By comparison, Togura Kamiyamada Onsen is slightly alkalid, pH 8.6. Even with that level, the water gives your skin a silky smooth feel. Goryukan's was even more so.

Nagano is fortunate to have so many great onsens!
