The one bath in Hakone where you sit in the water and see Lake Ashi below and Mt Fuji beyond the outer-rim ridge, from both the men's and women's sides. The 1938 Byodoin-style building is a registered cultural property, converted to day use in 2017; the water is a plain simple spring, so come for the view.
