藍色旅行記事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.

Lavender ciIt was my second time to ski in Japan. I had just learned to slow down and brake when I was pulled onto the slide at the highest point of Tibet by a friend 🙂↔️ There are several cable car rolls available for half day/full day/evening sessions! Riding the cable car thought you could see the trees and ice, but it was very windy and snowy, basically nothing to see Fortunately, we had a lot of fun, the day physical condition was very good, achievement unlocked!

工匠I didn't expect to see such a good aquarium here. I feel that each aquarium in Japan has its own characteristics. The jellyfish in the Kamo Aquarium are so beautiful and dreamy. This alone is worth seeing.
Achieved a 3-year streak on the annual lists
