Are you worried about love, work, relationships, the future, etc.? Once you start thinking about it, you become more and more anxious and don't know what to do. When you feel like that, why not go on a solo trip to change your mood? If you travel alone, you can take plenty of time to face your own heart without having to worry about anyone.
If you're traveling alone, choose a hotel or ryokan that offers a fortune-telling option. Talking to a fortune teller about your worries may ease your mind or give you an unexpected revelation. Getting hints to solve your worries while enjoying onsen and cuisine is the perfect way to refresh yourself. Here are five hotels and ryokan where you can get a full-scale fortune-telling session during your stay, using tarot cards, four pillars of destiny, and more. We recommend choosing your destination based on intuition.
As preparation before your fortune telling, check your "date of birth", "time of birth" and "place of birth" in your maternal and child health handbook. For fortune telling methods that require your date of birth, this information will increase the accuracy of the reading. Also, if you want to see your compatibility with someone you are interested in, you will need their date of birth. Most fortune telling places charge by the hour, such as in 15-minute or 30-minute increments. If you are shown to your seat and start thinking "What should I talk about...", time will pass by in the blink of an eye. Make sure you decide what you want to talk about in advance.
*Hotel and fortune-telling information is current as of January 2020. Please check each official website for consultation times and fees.
onsen Asaya is located about a 10-minute drive from onsen Onsen Station on the Tobu Kinugawa Line. There is a fortune-telling corner here, where you can have your palm and physiognomy read, and your compatibility with a person you are interested in seen. For physiognomy, which reads personality and fortune from facial features, it is recommended to remove colored contact lenses, as it is judged from the color, size, and brightness of the eyes. The schedule is posted on the official website, so please check it out.
This is the "Floating Garden Open-Air Bath" on the top floor of the hotel. As it is the highest point in onsen, it offers an outstanding sense of openness! You can enjoy the scenery of the four seasons and gaze upon the starry sky. When you enter the boat-shaped bath, it feels as if you are sailing out into the sky.
There are two types of guest rooms: "Hachibankan," with a calm and high-quality theme, and "Shuhokan," with a gorgeous and relaxing theme. This is "Miyabi," a Japanese-Western room with a panoramic bath on the top floor of Shuhokan. The room is decorated with "Kanuma Kumiko," a traditional craft in which Nikko cedar is assembled into geometric patterns, allowing you to enjoy the craftsmanship at your leisure. The "hexagons" created by the kumiko look like snowflakes, and from a distance, they look like large circles, making it fun to look at as if you were looking through a kaleidoscope.
Let's have dinner at the buffet restaurant "ASAYA GARDEN." You can enjoy your fill of about 100 kinds of Japanese, Western and Chinese dishes that make use of local ingredients. Steaks, pasta and other dishes are cooked right in front of you, so you can enjoy freshly made food.
