Ginzan Onsen 2-Day Tour Itinerary ποΈ
The ultra-romantic and fairy-tale-like Ginzan Onsen is basically fully booked during the winter hot spring season in Japan, with many rooms requiring reservations made months in advance. Ginzan Onsen is an entire hot spring street featuring establishments like Ginzan-so, Furueiya, Notoya, Showakan, Fujiya, Nagisawa Heihachi, and more.
