Hakone Kowakien Yunessun

箱根小涌園ユネッサン

Kanagawa · Kanto

Hakone Kowakien Yunessun is a unique hot spring theme park that combines traditional onsen experiences with water attractions. Visitors can enjoy various themed baths, including wine, green tea, and sake baths, along with water slides and pools. Guests with tattoos are refused entry as a matter of policy, including small single-point tattoos — worth knowing before travelling, because Hakone Yuryo, a different bathhouse in the same valley, lifted its own tattoo restriction in 2025.

Why we picked it

Many travelers focus solely on traditional onsens and miss this fun, family-friendly destination.
