Kikusui Roman-kan Roadside Station

Discover a roadside station with a farmers' market, hot springs, and a restaurant, plus enjoy camping and canoeing. The architecture is inspired by the famous Eta Funayama Kofun burial mound in Nagomi, making it a recommended spot for families looking to spend a fun day outdoors.

At the farmers' market, you can purchase fresh-picked vegetables and fruits, as well as products made from local ingredients. The restaurant offers everything from Chinese dishes to yakiniku with local beef. The facility also houses the Kikusui Roman no Yu onsen baths. The waters are famed for leaving skin silky smooth, earning the onsen the nickname "The Springs of Vitality."
