[Gunma/Kusatsu🇯🇵] Kusatsu Onsen, one of Japan's three most famous hot springs

Kusatsu Onsen is one of Japan's most famous hot springs, located in Agatsuma County, Gunma Prefecture, and is also counted among the "Three Great Hot Springs of Japan." Its greatest attractions are its abundant flow rate, its unique hot spring culture with its "strongly acidic springs," and its healing space surrounded by nature.

The "Yubata," which can be said to be the symbol of Kusatsu Onsen, is a powerful sight where 4,000 liters of hot spring water gushes out every minute. The steam and the smell of sulfur fill the air, and you can feel like you're in a hot spring resort on your skin. At night, the water is lit up, creating a fantastic atmosphere that is also a great attraction. ♨️

The spring water is "strongly acidic" and is said to have excellent sterilizing properties, and is expected to be highly effective in treating rough skin, cuts, recovering from fatigue, and beautifying the skin. From foot baths and public baths to historic, long-established inns to stylish cafes and souvenir shops, the hot spring town is an area where you can have fun just by strolling around.

In addition, the traditional Kusatsu "Yumomi" experience and local delicacies (hot spring manju, kokeshi dolls, soba noodles, etc.) are also very popular with tourists. Many people visit the area all year round, as a summer resort and a ski resort in winter. The area is dotted with nature and tourist attractions, and the area has a different look with each season. ✨

Kusatsu Onsen takes pride in the fact that "the water itself is wonderful," and is a hot spring resort that heals both body and mind, making it a place you'll want to visit again and again.
It is one of Japan's leading healing spots, where history, nature, and the warmth of the people come together in harmony!
