Japan｜Zao Ice Trees, a Winter-only View

#GlobalTravel



If you come to Japan in winter, it is highly recommended to transfer from Tokyo to Yamagata Station in Tohoku, Japan, or Sendai Station, which is famous for its beef tongue, to see the magnificent scenery of nature.
Juhyo refers to the strange sight of trees on the mountain covered with thick snow, turning them into giant snow monsters.
It really depends on luck to see the Zao ice trees under the blue sky and white clouds. After all, the weather on the snow-capped mountains is unpredictable, and you can only enjoy the scenery when visibility is high.

In terms of transportation, there are direct buses from Yamagata Station or Sendai Station to Zao Onsen Station, and then take the cable car to the top of the mountain to see the legendary ice trees up close.
You must pay attention to safety when visiting, especially in bad weather, as you can easily slip on the snow if you are not careful.
