Perfect for Golden Week trips ♨️ Ikaho Onsen

Head to Ikaho Onsen, a famous hot spring in Gunma Prefecture. A journey to relax in the elegant scenery of the stone steps and the shining golden "Golden Hot Springs". The atmosphere of the stone steps The "Stone Steps" street, the symbol of Ikaho, has 365 steps. On both sides are lined with souvenir shops, shooting ranges, and long-established inns, so you can enjoy the atmosphere of the hot spring town just by walking. The hot and sweet hot spring manju that I drank along the way was irresistible. Soaking in the Golden Hot Springs There are two types of hot springs at Ikaho Onsen: "Golden Hot Springs" and "Silver Hot Springs". This time, we went to the historic "Golden Hot Springs". The brown water containing iron warms the body from the inside and moisturizes the skin. After the bath, take a break with "Yu no Hana Manju" and milk. Ikaho Ropeway and a spectacular view Take the Ikaho Ropeway to Miharashi Station, which is 932 meters above sea level. From the observation deck, you can enjoy a spectacular view of Mount Haruna and Mount Akagi. It's even more beautiful in the autumn foliage season. Finish with Mizusawa Udon On the way back, enjoy the specialty "Mizusawa Udon". The chewy udon is served with sesame sauce or soy sauce. The simple yet deep flavor is very satisfying.
