I wanted tojust relax in an open-air spa watching the sun set into the magnificentJapan Sea horizon, and so I visited the one-day spa facility Isaribi on theEchizen coast. One good thing about this facility is that all of the publicbaths face the Japan Sea. In particular, the sunset is simply majestic.One section of the spa facility has one indoor bath and one open-air bath.The other section has two of each. Every 15 days, the sections rotatebetween men and women. Visit twice a month and enjoy them all; there isno gender discrimination here. The hot water is somewhat lubricious andyou can feel your skin getting smooth. This is a legitimate“hot spring ofbeauty.”I almost forgot the passing of time and enjoyed my stay to themaximum.In the adjacent“Active House Echizen”there is a whirlpool, a swimming pooland a warm water pool that uses hot spring water.
