In a region fiercely dedicated to the glories of soaking in sulfur-rich thermal waters, Tsurunoyu Onsen in Akita may be the most remarkable of all hot springs.

The ancient warriors have been replaced by a less formidable crowd these days, but the waters are as hot and relaxing as ever. Check out the full #TreasuresofTohoku video series.
