About one year ago was my first time to Kobe. It was very cold and we really wanted to spend some time at an onsen. The onsen we wanted to go to was in Arima. None of us had been to Arima before, and unfortunately the JR　line did not go there either. So we needed to catch several buses to get there. We finally got there and had to walk about 20 min to the onsen. When I　got into the onsen I　was surprised because the water was a brownish gold. They had two kinds of water, the brownish gold water which was hot, and the regular clear water that was cold. Even though the brown water looked dirty, I was freezing, so I　chose the gold hot water. I　figured this had to be a good onsen because it was the most crowded one that we had been to. This water was also the hottest. I　stayed in the water for 15 min and I　could already feel dizzy. I　tried to stay in as long as I　could but, I　had to get out. When I　got out my face was bright red and I　was glowing. I felt great. I　guess this brownish gold water was some good water.
