A natural radon onsen near central Takamatsu
Yuraku Onsen is a day-only facility on the banks of the Kasugagawa river, where a natural radon spring is offered across ten baths. The open-air tub includes an electric bath, and the herbal tub rotates mugwort, houttuynia and similar infusions. At ¥500 for adults, and ¥800 with the sauna, it is easy on the pocket, and being five minutes on foot from Kotoden Kasugagawa Station makes it a convenient stop between sights in Takamatsu.
Hours and tips
Hours are long, 10:00 to midnight, and the closing day is the first Monday of each month, moving to Tuesday when Monday is a holiday. The Nagomi-tei eatery runs 17:00 to 22:00, so an early-evening arrival suits a visit combined with dinner. As soap is not provided, bring your own or buy it at the desk. There is parking for 80 cars on site, but the access road is narrow and large vehicles struggle to enter.
Before you go
- No official tattoo policy is published — ask at reception.
- Payment is usually by ticket machine in cash — bring coins.
- Last entry is 30–60 minutes before closing.

Inside are a second-hand book corner and veranda-like lounges where people linger reading after their soak. ¥700; 11:00–24:00 weekdays, from 9:00 on weekends and holidays. Ten minutes' walk from Busshozan Station.
