Atsumi Onsen’s Footbath: “Mokkeyu” もっけ湯
One of the three foot baths in Atsumi Onsen. The word “Mokke” is used in the Shonai region’s dialect to express gratitude and other sentiments. From Mokkeyu, you can enjoy views of the Atsumi River flowing through Atsumi Onsen and Mt. Atsumi. In the autumn, you may even get to see salmon swimming upstream.
