Experience the cold in Japan in February

Experience the cold in Japan in February For this trip, we will experience snow on the Yamagata side. If traveling from Thailand, the route will start from • Don Mueang - Narita Airport • Take the Shinkansen Tokyo - Yamagata 2:45 hrs. • Take the bus at Yamaga Station, platform 1 to Zao Onsen, which takes 30 minutes. Prepare winter clothes because Zao Onsen has very thick and soft snow. Tourists will come to see the snow monster, which is very difficult to see because there are only 3-4 places around the world where this kind of Snow monster phenomenon occurs. You will have to take a cable car called Zao Ropeway, which is located in the middle of Zao Onsen. You can walk from the bus station to the cable car. The weather is very changeable. If you are lucky and the sky is clear, you will be able to see the Monster clearly. When you reach the top of the mountain, you will be able to walk up and take pictures with the Snow Monster. You can go anywhere on the mountain and get a beautiful angle. Caution: There are a lot of tourists. It will take 2-3 hours to wait for the cable car. The line is very long. It would be better if you bought your ticket online in advance. Because if there are a lot of people at the venue, they can close the ticket sales. And additionally, buy an additional express ticket to enter the special express lane. Prepare yourself well and you can go up quickly. For those who intend to ski, this city has many routes to play, both green, red, and black. As for the view of the route, it's not difficult to say that it is very beautiful. You can play through the demons down. Summary: For those who have never been to this side of Japan, I recommend that you come at least once because there are many tourist attractions. Most importantly, this city is famous for its Onsen hot springs. You can soak in a natural Onsen. #Yamagata #zaoonsen #skiresort #snowmonster #travel #เที่ยวต่างประเทศ #travelphotography #japantravel #withmyshutter #NewYearNewTrip
