    Near the subway station, there's a locker inside that refunds your money after use. The lockers outside charge a fee unless you have large luggage. Take off your shoes, go in, get a wristband, choose a yukata (light cotton robe) to change into, and then you can play. There are gashapon (capsule toy) machines inside. If you're not particularly hungry, I suggest eating outside; there are several restaurants nearby. Eating inside is a bit more expensive and has fewer choices. When you leave, use your wristband to pay.

    nice place, surrounded by greenery, mountain river, natural springs. according to the information near the counter, the place has many awards. visited by Japanese. The ticket does not include massage, hot stones. for this you have to pay extra. my lunch was off, it was delicious. It is better to visit the mineral waters first silver, then gold and you do not need to wash off the minimum water immediately after the procedure.

    Ginzan Onsen is located in Obanazawa City, Yamagata Prefecture, Japan. It is a hot spring village with a history of over 500 years. It is famous for being the filming location for the Japanese drama "Oshin" and is considered to be the inspiration for the hot spring house in "Spirited Away". Along the banks of the Ginzan River, wooden inns that retain the style of the Taisho era create a strong nostalgic atmosphere. In winter, the snow scene and gas lamps are intertwined, just like walking into an animation scene. In addition to soaking in the hot springs, visitors can also stroll through the hot spring street, taste local food, or visit attractions such as Baiyin Park. ​Ginzan Hot Spring is a healing place that combines history, nature and culture.​

    A key feature of many Japanese tourist attractions is their appearance in animated films. It's like checking in with your name and you'll appear. From the top of the mountain, you can overlook the entire city of Ito. Of course, the most striking thing about it is the lush greenery, which is truly refreshing.

    Wide selection of very nice baths both indoors and outdoors, including a steam sauna and infrared sauna. The check-in process is fast and easy.I went here several times during my stay in Osaka.This place is very popular so it may be very crowded at times.Also, be aware that tattoos are not allowed there.Very good onsen with a great number of facilities, The only downside is that it is very busy so you might need to wait.

    When it comes to hot springs in Japan, it has to be Yufuin!!👍🏼 As soon as I arrived at Fukuoka Airport, I took a bus straight to Yufuin~ It took about two and a half hours, and I also made a reservation at a ryokan through Trip.com⭐️ I had a very leisurely time enjoying the hot springs and having a healing timeㅎㅎ It was really nice even though I went in August! I'll go back in the winter!!

    Kurokawa Onsen: There are seven types of hot springs in Kumamoto Prefecture's Kurokawa Onsen. You can soak in most of the open-air hot springs by purchasing a "hot spring hand-shaped holder". A trip to Kurokawa Onsen will allow the hot springs to completely heal your body and mind. Kurokawa Onsen was selected as Japan's national health hot spring resort in 1964. The season when the "Temperature Festival" that lights up the entire hot spring street is especially worth recommending. During this period, the streets are decorated with cute spherical and cylindrical lanterns, blending in with the natural landscape.
