Characteristics of Takashi's Red Crab

Red snow crab caught by fishermen in Toyama Prefecture is called "Koshi Red Crab."
Because they live in the deep sea, they contain a lot of water to withstand the high water pressure, allowing you to enjoy the juicy sweetness of their meat and the melting flavor of their crab miso.

This hot spring is mild on the skin and has some of the purest waters in all of Japan. It is also mildly alkaline. Since its opening in 1923, numerous writers and artists have cherished this location, which is between Sekiguchi and Kurobe Gorge (Taisho 12). It is stated that Unazukionsen got its name from the Jina name "Unazuki," in the expectation that it would rise to the status of Uji and Nara as a location for harvest moon watching.
