Unazuki Onsen

Unazuki Onsen is a thermal resort situated at the entrance of Kurobe Gorge that spreads along the Kurobe River valley. Several natural hot springs emerge throughout the area, providing warm bathing water throughout the year.

The resort was established in 1923 and quickly became a destination for poets and writers seeking inspiration from the gorge. This artistic heritage continues to shape the character of the place.

The Selene Museum of Art showcases Japanese works inspired by the natural surroundings of Kurobe Gorge. Visitors can see how local artists have captured the landscape and seasons through their pieces.

The resort is accessible by train through the Hokuriku Shinkansen line with a direct station nearby. Lodging, dining, and walking trails connect the visitor facilities to the surrounding gorge landscape.

The hot springs emerge from deep underground and produce large volumes of pure water each day. The water retains its high temperature as it flows from the ground naturally.
