The onsen with the impossible name. The reading of the kanji used in this the spring's name, dragon, is so rare they have furigana for it written on the sign. Dai-ichi Heiwa Onsen also has a few wonderful baths worth checking out, along with some funny design quirks. The electric bath has a perfectly placed panel that hit my back just right. The rotenburo is large and quite comfortable and it is filled with the hot spring water. Sadly, the hot spring here is not very distinct. Besides the name, The other odd thing is the long row of lay down jet baths along the back wall. There are way more of these then would ever needed. I've been there twice and rarely seen anyone use them also. On top of that, the jets are quite old and too weak for my taste. While I always enjoy my time there I always get the feeling that I'm being watched more than usual. Be it from the young boys or the middle aged salarymen. My second time there I did see an old man take about twenty minutes to shave. He was sitting on the floor and not using a mirror. Japanese grandpas are pretty... unique.

Looks like the outdoor baths have been remodeled here a bit. Looks busier that before also. Happy to see that.

Updated Review January 2020:

One of the many sento in Kobe that have natural hot spring baths. This is one of the best things about living in this area. The spring here is not too noticeable, but the entire place is comfortable. The right side has a long outdoor bath lined with tourmalines rock and a small but very refreshing cold water bath. Inside there is the longest row of different jet baths that I have seen in a sento. The left side has a totally different layout with a much bigger outdoor bath. I like that side better, but both are fine. Seeing that this sento is right next to the entrance to Kamisawa station on the Kobe Subway, access is also perfect. Oh and it is also open all night. Worth a trip.
