Hot Springs

Monopolizing Mutsu Bay

Aomori hot spring"Asamushi Onsen”

Asamushi Onsen was originally called "Asamushi Onsen", and the name "Asamushi" comes from the fact that hemp was steamed in this hot spring.
It is said that the word ``mushi'' in ``masu'' is related to fire, so the word ``steam'' is associated with the Asamushi of a fire.
The origin of the hot spring dates back to 876 in the Heian period and is said to have been discovered by Jikaku Daishi Ennin.
For a while after its discovery, it was used only for steaming hemp, but it is said that Enko Daishi Honen visited in 1190 and encouraged the residents to take a bath.
Honen saw an injured deer begin to heal as soon as he took a bath, and knowing that the hot springs were highly effective, he encouraged local residents to do the same.

Relax in the large public baths and open-air baths facing Mutsu Bay

During the Edo period, the Tsugaru family, the lords of the Hirosaki domain, took a bath here, and a honjin was also established here.
In the hot spring rankings published in the Edo period, "All-round hot springs in various countries", it is rated as "Nishinogata Maegashira".
In the 8th year of Tenmei (1788) in the Edo period, Masumi Sugawara (1754-1829), a travel writer, visited
He wrote, "There are Taki-no-Yu, Me-no-Yu, Yanagi-no-Yu, O-Yu, Naked-Yu, etc., and the water is very pure."
