Last week Japan's Setouchi region was brought to my attention, and I love what I see! Even though I sadly haven't visited there myself yet, I want to share it with you.

Visiting an onsen there is pretty high on my to do list, besides, of course, visiting Tokyo and other urban parts of Japan. It’s been a long road but now, more than ever, we are ready to embrace unique healing experiences in a whole new way and the Setouchi region of Japan is truly the wellness center of Asia.
And don't we all need some wellness and healing now that we are on the final stretch of a global pandemic?
One can easily find an onsen at a range of boutique hotels and traditional guesthouses, or whilst trekking or exploring on foot, indicated on signs and maps by the kanji 湯 (yu, meaning “hot water”), and it’s best to familiarize yourself with the rules and etiquette of enjoying one as is customary with many experiences in Japan!
Setouchi encompasses 7 prefectures and features over 700 islands that dot the Seto Inland Sea, and beyond wellness, it is a haven for lovers of adventure, art and nature.
Whether you’re craving emotional, spiritual or physical healing, Setouchi’s incredible onsen, found nearly everywhere are the new “hot spots”. These bubbling springs refresh with hot mineral-rich waters that rise to the surface at 25 degrees Celsius minimum and they connect your body with your mind and create a new unique space in your mind to be able to think more clearly and set you on a revitalized pathway forward.
