This is the wine bath. It does smell like wine. I didn't dare taste it, and there's a sign saying not to drink the water. This bath used to be outdoors, but now totally indoors which was disappointing.These flavored baths are for both men and women in bathing suits.Apr 04, 2016

Hakone Kowakien Yunessan, a hot spring facility famous for hot spring baths in different flavors. Yunessan admission is ¥2,900 for adults and ¥1,600 for kids. They also have a pure hot spring area where bathing suits are not allowed. That's ¥1,900 for adults. You can go to both areas for ¥4,100 if you don't mind your skin being deprived of too much natural skin oil and a prolonged increase in blood pressure. http://www.yunessun.com/enjoy/Apr 04, 2016

Then in Oct. 1964, to celebrate the Tokyo Olympics and the shrine's 1,200th anniversary, the shrine hung a large framed calligraphy with the word "Heiwa" (Peace). It's on the front of the torii. The "Heiwa" kanji characters were written by Yoshida Shigeru, Japan's prime minister who signed the Treaty of San Francisco for Japan. The official name of this torii is "Peace Torii of Hakone Shrine" (平和の鳥居).Apr 04, 2016
ha864-20151104_9525.jpg
This torii is actually relatively new, built only in 1952 to commemorate two events that year: The ceremony that proclaimed Prince Akihito as Crown Prince when he came of age in Nov., and Japan's independence when the Allied Occupation of Japan endedApr 04, 2016
