Hot springs in Nagasaki Prefecture, Japan

Mt Unzen Active Volcano, Nagasaki, Dec 2015 (雲仙岳、長崎県、2015年12月）

Mount Unzen (雲仙岳, Unzendake) is an active volcano at the center of the Shimabara Peninsula, which has erupted several times in the last few hundred years with deadly results. The most recent eruption occurred from 1990-1996 when pyroclastic flows (superheated volcanic gases) and mudslides raced down the mountain towards Shimabara City, destroying buildings along the way. One of the pyroclastic flows killed several scientists, journalists and their drivers who tried to document the event.

GETTING STEAMY in UNZEN, NAGASAKI

I took a drive up to Nagasaki Prefecture for a weekend. This was day 1 - Unzen. Unzen is a small onsen resort town near Mount Unzen. It is known for nature and hot springs so I checked it out.

Much love and happy travels

A trip to Unzen, Nagasaki

This was a trip to Unzen, Nagasaki. It's a small hotspring (onsen) resort located high in the mountains of Nagasaki prefecture. Dr. Sato and Dr. Tamura put us up in a really nice room... it was a truly awesome weekend.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to message me:

Unzen Jigoku, Japan, April 2015 HD

Unzen-Jigoku 雲仙地獄,
Unzen Jigoku (“Unzen Hell”) where hot spring water and gases emit out from blowholes. White steam and a smell of sulfur create a hive of volcanic activity. Lots of distribution pipe convey the hot water to the nearby hotels or onsens.
It is a strong acid spring containing sulfur, known for its excellent antiseptic qualities and good for making the skin smooth and soft.

ONSEN UNZEN ONSEN - Japans beautiful Hell!

Onsen : Japanese public bath.I have discovered that Japanese onsen is one of my favorite things to do in Japan. When ever I travel to Japan I try to go to the public baths and discover new ones - all over Japan!. But I think that the experience at this onsen was an unforgettable experience. Which is why I made this video. Unzen Onsen (雲仙温泉) is a hot spring resort town near the peak of Mount Unzen. Not too far from Nagasaki, the area originally developed as a temple town that in its prime was large enough to be compared to Koyasan. In the Meiji Period, the town became one of Japan's first tourist resorts popular among foreigners, and a hint of Western influenced architecture can still be seen about town. Unzen Onsen's location makes it a good base from which to explore Mount Unzen.
The resort is surrounded on several sides by hot spring fields. Also known as hells (jigoku), these barren rocky areas are littered with billowing steam vents and gushing hot springs from which milky, acidic and sulfurous water bubbles straight up out of the ground. The hells were once used to execute Christian rebels after the failed Shimabara Rebellion, but today its spring water has the more pleasant task of warming up holidaymakers in the ryokan baths around town.

I hope you enjoy this multi language video!

Tell me about your onsen experiences!

Onsen: baño público japonés.
He descubierto que onsen japonés es una de mis cosas favoritas para hacer en Japón. Cada vez que viajo a Japón trato de ir a los baños públicos y descubrir otras nuevas - por todo Japón!. Pero creo que la experiencia en este onsen fue una experiencia inolvidable. Es por eso que hice este video.

Unzen Onsen (雲仙 温泉) es un pueblo de aguas termales cerca de la cima del monte Unzen. No muy lejos de Nagasaki, el área desarrollada originalmente como un templo de ciudad que en su mejor momento era lo suficientemente grande como para ser comparado con Koyasan. En el periodo Meiji, la ciudad se convirtió en uno de los primeros complejos turísticos de Japón populares entre los extranjeros, y un toque de arquitectura occidental influenciado todavía se puede ver por la ciudad. La ubicación del unzen Onsen hace que sea un buen punto de partida para explorar el Monte Unzen.

El complejo está rodeado por varios lados por los campos de aguas termales. También conocido como infiernos (jigoku), estas zonas áridas y rocosas están llenas de ondulante respiraderos de vapor y aguas termales que brota de la que lechosas, las burbujas de agua y ácidos sulfurosos hacia arriba fuera de la tierra. Los infiernos vez se utiliza para ejecutar los rebeldes cristianos después de la fallida rebelión de Shimabara, pero hoy su agua de manantial tiene la más agradable tarea de calentar los turistas en los baños ryokan alrededor de la ciudad.

Espero que disfruten de este video multi idioma!

Háblame de tu experiencia onsen!

Unzen Hell.mp4

There were many pools of bubbling springs dotted around the area, and the whole area was covered with white clay. The white clay is called 'solfataric clay'. The clay had been altered and decolourised by fumarolic gas, hot spring heat and acidic water. The energy source is assumed to be the magma reservoir under the seabed of the Tachibana Bay. The highest temperature of the fumarolic gas, blown out with hissing noises, can be 120℃. White and light yellow sinter deposits were attached on the ground around the fumaroles. We bought hard-boiled eggs cooked by the bubbling water and ate them with a dash of salt. More delicious than usual!
