Sakura-mon Gate
Sakura-mon Gate (楼門) in Takeo Onsen is the striking red entrance that welcomes visitors to one of Kyushu’s most charming hot spring towns. This traditional wooden gate, with its classic tiled roof and vibrant color, serves as a symbol of the town's long history and relaxing spirit. Walking through it feels like stepping back into old Japan, where bathhouses and healing waters have soothed travelers for centuries.
Just a short walk from Takeo Onsen Station, the gate is surrounded by public baths, local shops, and peaceful streets lined with historic buildings. Especially beautiful when lit up at night or framed by cherry blossoms in spring, Sakura-mon Gate is a favorite photo spot and a perfect starting point for exploring the relaxing charm of Takeo Onsen.
