Hot Spring

Boasting a 1300-year history,
the waters of Yamanaka were praised as one of
Japan's 3 finest hot springs by the haiku master Basho.

Fresh greenery, autumn foliage,
and snowy landscapes.
Enjoy a luxurious moment soothed by
the smooth hot spring waters,
alongside the gentle murmur of the mountain
stream and the beauty of the gorge that
transforms with every changing season.
