//Kusatsu Onsen// ° ° ° After leaving Echigo Yuzawa, our next destination is Kusatsu Onsen. We bought tickets to Karuizawa the night before departure. After arriving in Karuizawa, we had to wait for the bus at the bus stop next to the station. Remember to check the timetable in advance, because not every bus goes to Kusatsu Onsen. Yubatake is a 5-minute walk from the bus stop. It is located in the center of the hot spring town and is the main attraction of Kusatsu Onsen. 4,000 liters of hot spring water gushes out of Yubatake every minute, and it is always steaming. The hot spring street has foot baths, many restaurants and specialty shops, and is very lively. We had lunch, some snacks, and then bought tickets to watch the show at Renoyu. The "Yumomi" performance is held every day at Netonoyu, where several performers sing while hitting the hot spring water with wooden boards to cool it down. Yubatake is more beautiful at night than in the morning, with lights, snow, and the smoke from the hot springs, it is very dreamy. ■ □ ■ □ ■ □ ■ □ ■ □ □ 𝐋𝐨𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧📍 401 Kusatsu, Agatsuma District, Gunma 377-1711 ■ □ ■ □ ■ □ ■ □ ■ □ #mocha_n_love_travel #mocha_n_love_japan #mocha_n_love_tokyo #日本旅行 #东京旅行 #全球旅行

There is a wooden gutter called "Yubatake" that transports this natural hot water to the ryokan or public bathhouse in the city. 🍂 We like to come here in winter and at night wear a yukata with a coat. Come out and sit around the hot spring to find food at the supermarket or street food on the side of the road. The atmosphere here is really great.

Kusatsu Onsen is located in Gunma Prefecture and is considered one of the oldest hot springs in Japan with excellent water quality. Stroll through the alleys in the falling snow, feel the heat emanating from the hot springs, and completely relax your body and mind.

Here is my review of the hot spring hotel 'Kiroha': First, let me introduce the location of this place. The hotel is located in Kusatsu Onsen, Kusatsu Town, Gunma Prefecture, Japan. The address is 464-241 Kusatsu Shirane, Kusatsu Town, Agatsuma District, Gunma Prefecture. How to get to the hotel? If you are departing from Tokyo, I suggest you take a train. First, take the express train 'Kusatsu' to Nagano Kusatsu-guchi Station, then transfer to a bus to Kusatsu Onsen. Upon arrival, you can take the hotel's shuttle bus to the hotel. If you drive, it takes about 3 hours to get to the hotel from Ueno Station. Why do I think the hot spring service of this hotel is cost-effective? This is because the hotel's private hot spring (no extra charge) is unlimited, you can use it at any time. Moreover, there are three different hot springs to choose from, all of which are of very good quality. If you go as a couple, you will definitely have a different experience. I mainly recommend 'Iwamuro' and 'Takeza'. Sometimes you need to queue up, but if the light is on, it means someone is using the hot spring. About the price of the hotel, the price of a single room is between 13,000 and 17,000 yen (800-1000 RMB), I think this price is very reasonable. Finally, I want to remind everyone that no matter which price plan you choose, the hot spring includes 23 hot spring pools, two large baths, and three private hot springs. The only difference is accommodation and breakfast. If you only care about the quality of the hot spring, then the cheapest plan is enough.

Why not take a look at the historic "Yumomi" and experience it for yourself? The Yumomi Girls will perform the Kusatsu Bushi and Kusatsu Yumomi Songs The show lasts about 20 minutes Tickets are available for purchase at the Yubatake and tourist information center Adults 700 yen, elementary school students 350 yen Lecture times 9:30 10:00 10:30 3:30 4:00 4:30

Kusatsu Onsen is one of the three most famous hot springs in Japan. The quality of the spring water is excellent! Heals both body and mind! 3 minutes walk from the Yubatake Gensen Ichinoyu Hotel Review rating 4.6 or higher A stylish and private space A place where you can relax away from your busy everyday life About 3 hours by car from Tokyo A must-try experience 📍135 Kusatsu, Kusatsu-cho, Agatsuma-gun, Gunma Prefecture

If would you like to go there. Best option is rental car. Because other transportation doesn’t have that. Additional one things is you can chose local bus. But it’s going to be hard situation. Rental car is 60USD from There’s couple of souvenir shop restaurant amusement place. Best Buy is tamago pudding If you can pay extra fee you can see performance of paddling girls. That’s traditionally things. #kusatsu #onsen #japan #hotspringsvisit #hotspringshotel

It’s my first time to soak in Kusatsu Onsen and I’m really looking forward to it. This time I stayed at Konoha Onsen Ryokan for a one night stay and two meals. The hotel is full of Japanese style, with tatami mats covering the entire floor. The hot springs are no less impressive. In addition to the large public bath, there are also three different private baths. Spending two days and one night in the hot spring experience there will give your body and mind a full rest, which is highly recommended. #Hot Spring Hotel

#Hot Springs Kusatsu Onsen has three public baths that tourists can use for free. Jizo no Yu, which we will introduce here, is one of them. Jizo no Yu, which is also used for hot spring therapy, is a free-flowing spring with excellent quality. Many people become addicted to hot springs after trying this bath. What's more, it's a great deal to be able to enjoy this rare spring quality for free, which is only available at four inns in Kusatsu, which has a hundred lodging facilities. If you're going to Kusatsu Onsen, be sure to make your public bath debut here!

Kusatsu Onsen is even more beautiful in the snowy scenery. Locals are kind enough to allow tourists to bathe in public baths (such as Jizo no Yu), but after traveling in the cold, a hot spring feels really good. Also, all the buildings (restaurants, accommodation, hot springs) are all in one place, so it's not too difficult to get around even when it's snowing, which is another reason why we recommend Kusatsu in the winter. The combination of the snowy scenery and the steam rising from the town is somehow fantastical, and is sure to be a memorable experience! #hotsprings #wintertrip #kusatsuonsen #greatview

Access: Osayu ~Kusatsu Onsen Monkey Yumomi Place~ Tourist Spot: You can see monkeys doing "Yumomi", a traditional bathing method in Kusatsu. I saw some very cute monkeys. On the second floor, you can see and touch baby monkeys, capybaras, and rabbits. It's very relaxing, so I recommend it for animal lovers. #MonkeyYumomi #KusatsuOnsen #Date #GirlsTrip

Date of photo: 2023.1.28 Spot: Kusatsu Onsen Yubatake Address: Kusatsu, Kusatsu-machi, Agatsuma-gun, Gunma Prefecture 377-1711 I love this hot spring and have been there many times. I would like to go again. #trip2023 #hotspring #kusatsuonsen #yubatake

During the New Year's holiday when it was snowing heavily, I visited Kusatsu Onsen, a hot spring town with hot spring terraces. A strong cold front has also arrived in the Kanto region, so I made an early reservation to go to Kusatsu Onsen for a hot spring bath and food tour during the New Year holiday. The convenient JR Passes allow you to travel smoothly all the way, which is convenient and easy. Even the transition from JR to BUS is done on the spot. When we arrived at the Kusatsu Onsen area, the air was filled with a strong smell of sulfur, and we were looking forward to soaking in the hot springs to warm our bodies. Great trip to the onsen ryokan.

Location: 505 Izumi, Kusatsu-machi, Agatsuma-gun, Gunma Prefecture The monkey hot water massage show was an impressive performance ☆ It was so funny I want to watch it again and again (^^) There is a corner on the second floor where you can interact with capybaras. Hot water massage show: 500 yen Interaction set discount: 1000 yen #trip2023#tripmemory2022 #NikkoMonkeyArmy

Location: 538 Kusatsu, Kusatsu-machi, Agatsuma-gun, Gunma Prefecture Access: 2 minutes on foot from the Yubatake There is snow on the ground and the stairs are a little slippery, but once you get up there you'll have a great view from the top of the hill and cute ducks will be waiting to greet you☆ #trip2023#tripmemory2022

Location: 521-3 Kusatsu, Kusatsu-machi, Agatsuma-gun There is a foot bath at the entrance to the park, and at the back there is the Nishinokawara open-air bath. It was snowing, but I think I'll be warm enough to go home☆ #trip2023#tripmemory2022 #hotsprings#gunma #kusatsuonsen

Although I am not a big fan of hot springs, I was also attracted to Kusatsu Onsen, with its distinctive hot springs and quaint streets. Especially when the lights are on at night, the hot springs are really beautiful. I recommend it to friends who love hot springs.

It takes 4 hours to arrive by full direct train from Shinjuku. This place is quite small, there are several temples, and some souvenir specialty shops, and several restaurants, there are many barbecue shops At the central point there is an open-air hot spring for foot soaking, which is free and the hot spring water has a faint smell of sulfur.

This accommodation is located on a small slope. Overall, it is very satisfying. It does not have the atmosphere of an old hotel and is in line with the aura of a traditional Japanese bath. Many corners in the hotel are beautiful for taking photos. Both meals in the one-night-two-meals plan were great. We enjoyed Japanese kaiseki cuisine in a separate box for breakfast and dinner. I deeply felt that although there are not many attractions in Kusatsu, it is a good choice to take advantage of the current cheap Japanese yen exchange rate to arrange a good hotel and enjoy a Japanese bath! 2022.12

Address: 524-8 Kusatsu, Agatsuma District, Gunma 377-1711 Japan Directions: 5 minutes by car from Kusatsu Yubatake, walking uphill is difficult Rating: 5.0/5.0 A quiet hot spring inn with a small hot spring, private bath, comfortable rooms, and a great view. They offer free pick-up to Yubatake and free pick-up to the terminal. There is a microwave on the first floor, so you can warm up food you bought, and there is also a vending machine for drinks. #HotelRecommendation

Kusatsu Onsen is one of the best and most famous hot springs in Japan. It is the source of the most natural Gensen Kakenagashi water, which is good for your health and has a high temperature without any additives. It helps kill germs, warms your body, and stimulates your blood circulation. After soaking, you will feel comfortable. There are 6 sources of quality water, such as Yubatake, which is a famous highlight, Shirahata, Nikawa, Bandaiko, Sainokawara, and Jizo, each with different colors and properties. Sainokawara Park is a park with beautiful nature, not far from Yubatake. The landscape is beautiful in every season. It is different from other places that still have hot springs flowing through, so stop by to soak your feet in the atmosphere amidst the mountains. In this area, there is also the largest outdoor hot spring for those who are not staying at a ryokan. #onsen #kusatsu #japan

📍Kusatsu OnsenGunma Prefecture is a treasure trove of hot springs. It is especially famous, but I would like to introduce the Yubatake in Kusatsu Onsen♨️The Yubatake, located in the center of the hot spring town, is the symbol of Kusatsu Onsen! 4,000 liters of hot spring water gushes out every minute, and steam is always rising. It's interesting that it's green in color🤣! Kusatsu Onsen is also one of the three most famous hot springs in Japan. It's also nice that you can enjoy "direct-flowing hot spring water" at Kusatsu's inns and hot spring facilities. I was able to enjoy the "hot spring water" to my heart's content. [Address] 28 Kusatsu, Kusatsu-cho, Agatsuma-gun, Gunma Prefecture 377-1711 #Kusatsu Onsen
