Izumisano City, Osaka

Do you know that within a mere 20 minutes from Kansai International Airport, you can visit Izumisano City that is a gate city of Japan and just a 40-minute drive from the airport will take you to nice hot spring spots and Inunaki Mountain? 

In the hot spring spots, while bathing in the open-air bath, you will experience picturesque views, such as cherry blossoms in spring, green leaves in summer, foliage in fall, and trees covered with snow in winter. 

Once you step into the deep mountain area, Inunaki Mountain, you will feel the sacred atmosphere. 

This mountain is known as a spiritual place for Shugen-do, Japanese mountain asceticism. 

It is considered one of the oldest sacred places in Japan, with a history of more than 1300 years as a place to practice mountain asceticism. 

There are 48 large and small waterfalls and the main temple, Shipporyuji-temple. 

We are looking forward to your coming to Izumisano City, if you have a time to spare before your flight.
