A relaxing mountainside bathhouse battlemap full of narrow winding passages, rocks, pools & carefully-maintained shrubbery for someone to make a mess out of! Alternatives feature a bizarre basalt underworld & a natural hot springs largely free from commercial intervention.
Thoughts
The bathhouse pools are carefully divided into three sections — originally intended to be male, mixed, & female. Use or ignore as desired!
Yes, I know the map name is triply redundant (depending on interpretation).
Contents

Autumn Mountain Bathhouse: A rosy bathhouse fantasy under red maple.
Winter/Spring/Summer: Seasonal variants for snowy mountains, sakura-watching, or summer slaughters!
Magical Pools: A variant with brilliantly-colored pools of special qualities. The special quality is that it was built on top of an old GPU farm & it’s leaking purple RGB coolant. Or maybe it’s magical.
Hell: An unpleasant underworld onsen! The air is awash with a stinging miasma.
Natural Mineral Pools: Before the bathhouse, these pools existed free in nature — so here they are! Unblemished natural pools for kappa encounters or other terrible water nymphs, in all four seasons.
Canopy Overlays: Built for VTT canopy usage!
Day/Night Variants: Wherever applicable!

Oh, if I remember correctly, it's because that's actually a limestone cobblestone base smooth-blended with one of the smooth marble stone terrains to fill in the gaps between the cobblestones, not caustics or water effects. It does kinda look that way, though.
