Taisha-yu, Public bathhouse in Kurayoshi, Japan.

Taisha-yu features traditional wooden architecture with brick elements, separate bathing areas for men and women, and decorative tiled floors and walls.

Established around 1907, this bathhouse operated until 2022 and remained the oldest existing public bath facility in Tottori Prefecture.

The bathhouse name derives from the neighboring Izumo Taisha Kurayoshi branch shrine, changing from its original name Third Tsuru-no-Yu.

Visitors could access the facility via local bus from JR San-in Main Line Kurayoshi Station, with dedicated parking available on the north side.

The building survived two closures, including the 2016 Central Tottori Earthquake, reopening each time through community and tourist support.
