About Yakushi-yu

Yakushi-yu is a public bath located at the foot of the Tokyo Sky Tree and can be used for running.
Because it is about 5 minutes to Sumida River, we recommend running a course that runs Riverside to Asakusa.
The public bath is an atmosphere of downtown, local people like beer drinking and drinking like a pub when visiting in the evening.
Also, hot water contains “Kusuri-yu” ingredients that can be expected to have good efficacy in the body, and the contents change every day.

Running Course

Sumida-river is a river that spans Sky Tree and Asakusa, the two major tourist destinations in Tokyo.
In this course you can experience both the face as a sightseeing spot in Tokyo and the local face in running.
A strange building of a beer company and a cruiser like a spaceship to watch from the Azuma bridge are photogenic.
