A dream hotel to stay at once in your life! I stayed at Akakura Kanko Hotel, a pioneer of Japanese highland resort hotels in Myoko Kogen, Niigata♪ This post is a room tour♪ The room was "Premium Building 2nd Floor Hot Spring Open-Air Terrace Twin P2" and the open-air bath in the room was the best I've ever had✨ #Open-air bath in the room #Hot spring inn #Resort hotel #Luxury hotel #Photogenic hotel #Hotel with a great view

The view from the terrace was amazing!!

This is my 1st experiencing snow. I'm truly amazed by the view of the mountains & the breezy wind touched my heart. Getting There - Myōkō is located in an inland region of north-central Niigata Prefecture, on the border of Nagano Prefecture. Take train or by bus from Tokyo. Attractions - Myōkōkōgen and the former village of Myōkō are famed for their ski resorts. The Myōkō Ski Area has nine main mountain resorts: Myōkō Akakura, Ikenotaira Onsen, Myōkō Suginohara (which boasts the longest ski run in Japan), Seki Onsen, Kyukamura, Myōkō Ski Park, Lotte Arai Resort, Madarao Kogen and Tangram Ski Circus. Hida Sites, Yayoi period archaeological site and National Historic Site Hotels - Hotel Taiko. There are many hotels to accommodate and good for your wallet.

Mount Myoko is a mountain with a rather unique shape, with hot springs such as Akakura Onsen and Tsubame Onsen at the foot of the mountain. It is famous for hiking from spring to autumn and as a ski resort in winter. The autumn leaves are particularly spectacular, and you can enjoy the beautiful colors and clear skies. #Niigata #Hiking #Autumn Leaves #Mount Myoko

#japantrip Follow the bear and you'll be there. Akakura Onsen ski was the perfect place to start our trip. Great place to get the feel of having a board back beneath our feet. Great for beginners an some intermediate runs before moving to one of the steeper resorts. Loved this resort and the surrounding area. Lovely little town that has everything you need for a great mountain getaway. Snowboarded here and had a great time on great snow with nice long runs. Not crowded either, especially compared with the U.S. so that was a breath of fresh air! Hopefully we will return one day!

#favouriteitinerary Soba-dokoro Kadoya serves really fantastic soba and it comes in super huge portion! The tempura 🍤 was so nice, crispy on the outside and the ingredients were super fresh. Thankfully they have English menu too so that non-locals can enjoy the soba. Address: 189-1 Kōchi, Minakami, Tone District, Gunma 379-1726, Japan Opening hours: Friday to Tuesday, 11 am to 3 pm #travel #japan

#globaltravel #Niigata #Nagano 🚄Transportation basically moves by "JR Pass Nagano Niigata 5days"! 💰 27000yen $1350 Day 1: Niigata ✦ Nagaoka Fireworks Festival Super emotional Fireworks Festival (⸝⸝⸝ᵒ̴̶̷̥́ ⌑ᵒ̴̶̷̣̥̀⸝⸝⸝) The Nagaoka Fireworks Festival has changed its system in recent years. In fact, itself lost, thinking to give up the whole trip of TT but fortunately in the end held: such a big day I can not believe I can not see the mind, researched on the Internet for a long time the best viewing location, decided to die Nagaoka! ! Before going, I bought a picnic mat, a grilled bird, and snacks, then arrived at the venue 3 hours early to strike, and then had a happy picnic waiting for the opening✨ 🏠Ancient residence BNB💰 $405 Day 2: Niigata ✦ Numagari Terrace Shopping Street The ancient house where BNB lives is located near the shopping street. It happened to be the weekend market that day. In addition to the super retro hipster shops, there are also some small stalls selling local specialties ✦ Sasakawa water flow I love the Japanese sea ><🤍 The 11 kilometers of coastline is spectacular and beautiful ~ I recommend you to take a tour boat, in addition to driving, the boat will explain in Japanese how some strange rocks are formed, and you can experience feeding seagulls ~ and if you come here, remember to eat oysters! 500yen for two 🦪, very fresh and affordable (`_ ́)ゞ ✦ Beach Sunset From daylight to dark, the romance value is MAX^^ 🏠 Niigata Kyobin Hotel💰$280 Day 3: Niigata ✦ Myoko Plateau Extremely rural place, the bus from the station to the hot spring inn is very mini like Van XD When I got on the bus, the driver also introduced me to the earrings he made himself, super cute (˶'save'˶) ✦ Yan Hot Spring "Golden Soup" I heard that Myogao has different colors and functions of hot springs, black, yellow, milky white, etc., and I went to the "golden soup" is a natural milky white hot spring ♨️ and and this is a free open-air hot spring, divided into men's and women's soup, as long as you pass and have the courage to walk in at any time to soak it ^^ 🏠Flower Inn💰 $745 one night two meals Day 4: Nagano ✦ Narai Residence Japan’s longest and most well-preserved lodge (i.e., an ancient post). Personally, I think it's more fun than Kyoto >< Hope to have the chance to stay there for a night later! 🏠 Matsumoto M Hotel💰 HK$255 Day 5: Nagano ✦ Matsumoto Castle I was thinking of going to Upper Highlands, but unfortunately it rained heavily that day TT decided to switch to the famous city! When I walked there, I found a free English tour guide at the door✨ However, after the epidemic, they can no longer bring people into the city, they will only explain outside, and then accompany you in line. The tour guide I met was great and would teach me what angle is the most beautiful to take photos XD and he explained in great detail! After knowing that I am a Hongkonger, he asked me a lot about Hong Kong TT🤍 ✏️ Have you noticed that transportation + hotel is only $3000! In fact, there are many places worth discovering besides Tokyo and Osaka!

The room is simply huge that capable to sleep up to 4pax, there is an onsen at the basement and free wifi covered. The hotel is located less than 5 mins walking distance from Akakura Onsen Ski Field. Remember to pay the onsen tax before check out!
