Yugawara Hot Spring District Art Galleries

Yugawara is an artistic town where many painters and literary figures stayed from the Meiji to Showa periods. The Municipal Yugawara Museum of Art displays works by artists connected to Yugawara, including Takeuchi Seiho and Yasui Sotaro. Small art galleries and studios are scattered throughout the hot spring district, where you can encounter diverse works from contemporary art to crafts. You can enjoy the luxurious experience of relaxing in hot springs followed by art appreciation. We also recommend strolling while taking breaks at the foot bath facilities in Manyo Park.
