Kurokawa Onsen in Minami-Kokuni-cho, Kumamoto Prefecture has been the Top 3 hot spring lovers’ pocket list in Japan! This trip is specifically to experience this super humane hot spring village. Kurokawa Onsen not only has a beautiful ecological environment, but also has an ancient hot spring inn, a smoky open-air hot spring, a small bridge lit at night, and an old-fashioned eel rice shop, which perfectly shows the Japanese rural style to the extreme. No matter whether it’s sunny or rainy, this is one of the divine attractions for strolling and relaxing. 🛁 Kurokawa Onsen Must-See Recommendation Kurokawa Onsen (Kurogawa Oji Manganji Temple, Minami-Kokuni-cho, Aso-gun, Kumamoto Prefecture | 09:00 – 18:00 year-round) This pedestrian street is surrounded by mountains, with inns and Japanese shops scattered throughout. It is super relaxing to stroll through it. The most beautiful place is the small bridge in the middle of Hot Spring Street, both day and night have a great feel, especially recommended to come at night, the lights are lit up the atmosphere is full, with the nearby gurgling stream and tree shadows swaying, Instagram photo photo is great! (Remember to bring an umbrella☂️, even if it rains, the fog is more romantic) Eel Shop (near Kurokawa Onsen Pedestrian Street) If you are tired from walking, you can go to the old-fashioned eel rice shop by the bridge to treat your stomach. The taste is authentic enough. The freshly grilled eel meat is thick and fluffy, which goes well with rice. The environment of the shop is warm, you can sit by the window and enjoy the rain view slowly, it is a super healing experience. The price of eel rice is about 2,000-3,500 yen, so it is recommended to come a little early, as the popular restaurant is easily packed for dinner. Experience the bits and pieces This time we encountered a little cloudy rain, but it did not affect the mood at all - instead, with the blessing of smoke and rain, the trees, people, and hot spring bridge added a hazy beauty. It is recommended to wear slippers/non-slip shoes, add a thin jacket, walk comfortably and not afraid of the hot spring street ground slightly wet. Practical tips ・If you plan to soak in the hot spring, you can buy a "soup hand shape" to try the hot springs of 3 different inns at once, the CP value is super high (priced at about 1,300 yen, suitable for most inns in Onsen Street). ・There are many choices for indoor dining hot spring restaurants, but queues are required during popular hours, it is recommended to go during the wrong peak hours or make a reservation. ・Most small shops will be open after 9:00 on Hot Spring Street and will gradually close at night around 8-9. Transportation guide Transportation in Kurokawa Onsen is mainly by car or bus, and Kumamoto Station allows you to take a high-speed bus directly to Kurokawa Onsen for 2.5-3 hours, with a fare of about 3,000-4,000 yen. It is recommended to reserve a parking space in advance during the peak season. Kurokawa Onsen is really great for slowing down and enjoying the leisurely countryside hot spring time. If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle for a walk, taste food, and take pictures of fantastic stone bridges, Kurokawa Onsen will definitely not disappoint you! #Kurogawa Onsen #Kumamoto Travel #Japan Onsen #Country SlowLife #EelRice Recommendation
