Introducing the photos posted on "Everyone's Post"! This is a pickup post of the inbound tourism information SNS "Cool Japan Video". Today, I would like to introduce "KSK1991FKSM" post "Snowy scenery of Ginzan Onsen". The retro cityscape illuminated by the warm streets is a beautiful piece. Ginzan Onsen is a hot spring town located in Obanazawa City, Yamagata Prefecture in the Tohoku region, which has been selected as the "No. 1 hot spring atmosphere of the East". The nostalgic scenery of inns built from the end of the Taisho period to the early Showa period is impressive. The old-fashioned cityscape is also famous as a filming location for the drama "Oshin" and is said to have been the model for the Ghibli movie "Spirited Away". Not only in the daytime, but also in the fantastic night view with the sparkling streets, it is also popular as an Instagrammable spot. Along the river of Ginzan Onsen, there are many inns where you can enjoy the Taisho romance. Among them, we recommend the popular ryokan "Ginzan Onsen Traditional Inn Furuyamakaku", a colorless and transparent 100% free-flowing hot spring, and you can also enjoy a private open-air bath made of cypress. The registered cultural property inn "Notoya Ryokan" is a three-story wooden inn where you can feel the world view of Spirited Away. The hot springs have open-air baths and cave baths, and dishes such as Obanazawa beef and duck made with local ingredients are also attractive. For day trips, we also recommend the communal bath Shirogane-yu (usage fee 500 yen) and the free Waraku Foot Bath. ◆Access ◆ About 3 hours by Yamagata Shinkansen from Tokyo + 40 minutes by direct bus 【For day trips】 Parking at the "Shared Parking Lot" and "Taisho Roman Museum Mae" (There is no day-trip sightseeing parking lot beyond the shared parking lot) From each parking lot, take a paid bus.

I was able to finish the trip safely without feeling cold due to the snow cover on the Otaru Canal, blessed with the weather during the trip, and the next week's weather news made me shout "Hi-" to the announcement of Chitose Airport, plane, takeoff and landing, and impossible.

In February of this year, I went to Sapporo for 2 nights and 3 days, and the snow festival was canceled, but the trip was decided, and I thought that it was a cold place in the middle of winter to the Otaru Canal!

Lake Tazawa. Snow. A world without sound. You can stand there forever... yes, it was cold.

I want everyone to go. It was a hot spring in the middle of winter, which was really, really good. I was very satisfied with the hot spring tour. Warms up from the core. I don't mind mixed bathing at all lol.

Even in the middle of April, it was still snowing around the foot of Mt. Fuji, with beautiful cherry blossoms, glittering snow, and Mt. Fuji under a blue sky. Mt. Fuji always looks beautiful Photographed on the shore of Lake Kawaguchiko, Yamanashi Prefecture 2020／4

Kinkakuji Temple in Kyoto It snows several times a year in Kyoto, so the snowy Kinkakuji Temple is rare.

Shot at Takada Castle Park in Joetsu City, Niigata Prefecture. The Somei Yoshino cherry trees in full bloom and the Myoko mountain range dyed in snow were superb views, so I took this one without thinking. The cloudless blue sky and superb view were reflected on the surface of the water, and the water surface was also a wonderful view.

Proceed to the back of Ginzan Onsen in Obanazawa City, Yamagata Prefecture to "Shirogane Falls" As the name suggests, the waterfall flowing in the snowy landscape was like white silver! You can see the snowy scenery and the waterfall at the same time, so it is also recommended for sightseeing!

On a trip to Ishikawa with my wife who was finally able to go. It was a scenery that I felt was Japan winter. Kenrokuen Garden is famous for its snow hanging, but it was a fun space to see all the scenery in the park. I'm a couple who love cameras, so I kept shooting for three hours (laughs), but that's not enough to shoot.
