Ginzan Onsen in Yamagata - A place filled with the romantic atmosphere of the Taisho era ♨️ Enjoy it day or night!

Ginzan Onsen is a nostalgic hot spring town reminiscent of the Taisho era.
Its charm lies in the completely different atmospheres it offers during the day and at night.

🌞 Enjoy a stroll through the retro townscape while sampling delicious food during the day. There's also a small waterfall at the back of the hot spring town, allowing you to enjoy the natural scenery.
🌙 Change into a yukata and stroll around at night. The hot spring town, bathed in the glow of gas lamps, is truly magical, making you feel like you've traveled back in time.

❄️ The combination of snow and gas lamps creates a particularly spectacular view in winter, but it's very popular, so reservations must be made well in advance.
However, visiting in spring or fall is also a great way to enjoy the area, so we recommend visiting in other seasons as well.

💡 Tips
・Strolling around in a yukata at night is recommended.
・Reservations fill up quickly during the winter season, so plan accordingly.
・Enjoy nature during the day by sampling delicious food and touring waterfalls.
