Tokai Kan
The Tokai Kan was opened in 1928 as a hot springs hotel for the common folk.
The craftsmen of the time were extremely proud of this building, featuring gorgeous Japanese-style architecture incorporating cypress, cedar and other expensive woods, as well as strangely shaped wood referred to as "henboku."
The Tokai Kan is not longer operated as a hotel, but is preserved as a valuable example of traditional Japanese architecture.
