Iwamuro Onsen
This hot spring district, first developed 300 years ago, was designated a National Hot Spring Health Resorts in 1963. The area is also known as the Hot Spring of the Ghost Goose due to the strange legend concerning how it was discovered. The waters of the area's sulfur-containing sodium calcium chloride springs are said to treat rheumatic arthritis, nerve pain, wounds, burns, chronic skin diseases, and chronic women's diseases. Visitors can find hot spring hotels and traditional ryokan inns which pride themselves on their cuisine, as well as casual day trip hot spring bathhouses. Situated inside Sado-Yahiko-Yoneyama Quasi-National Park, there are an abundance of sightseeing destinations in the area, such as the Gakematsu Pine, Hanadachi Iwa Rock and Shiro Iwa Rock, part of the scenic Maze coast. The sight of the setting sun sinking into the sea beyond Sado Island from the Maze coast is also stunning.

- 大変良い泉質です。
- 少ししょっぱくて硫黄の匂いがする温泉です。なかなかない泉質の温泉と思います。魅力的な宿が多いのもいいですね。

- ゆめや
- 久し振りにゆめやさんへ、今年で30年だそうです。 相変わらずサービスもお食事も大満足でした、特に今回は、少なめのお食事を選べるコースをお願いし、最近は年と共に食事の量が食べられなくなってきているので大変良いアイデアだと思います。 温泉も源泉掛け流しの内風呂と、露天風呂も素晴らしいお湯でした。新潟らしく地酒も色々選べお食事と相まって日本酒好きにはたまりません...
