Tenku: Forest in the Sky

'Tenku: Forest in the Sky' in Kirishima City, Kagoshima Prefecture, is truly a special inn. On a vast site of about 60 hectares (about 13 Tokyo Domes!), only five villas are scattered. Each villa is completely independent, allowing you to spend private time without encountering other guests.

The villa design modernly expresses the Japanese aesthetic of 'wabi-sabi', creating simple yet sophisticated spaces. Each villa has an open-air bath with free-flowing hot spring water, allowing you to fully enjoy Japanese onsen culture.

Local materials and craftsmanship shine in the architecture and interior. Japanese design elements are incorporated throughout, such as ceiling beams utilizing the expression of wood and Kyoto tatami mats.

Meals use fresh ingredients like organic vegetables grown in the on-site garden, local Silkie chickens, and Satsuma Jidori chickens. Dishes valuing the seasonal flavors allow you to deeply savor the regional food culture.

Located on a hill overlooking the Kirishima mountain range, breathtaking seasonal views unfold. From the wood deck or open-air bath, you can feel the transitions of nature, such as sunrise, sunset, and the starry sky.

This inn, valuing Japanese culture, traditions, and coexistence with nature, is perfect for those seeking true luxury. It's a special place where you can experience heartfelt relaxation and healing.
