"One of Japan’s oldest onsen is located in the outskirts of Matsuyama in a labyrinthine Meiji-era complex with several baths, tatami mat relaxing rooms, and even an onsen for the imperial family, which you can tour but not soak in. The landmark three-story wooden bathhouse is said to be the inspiration for Studio Ghibli’s Spirited Away ."
