Take a quick look at Ginzan Onsen in the winter! This Spirited Away looking onsen town can be found in Yamagata prefecture, and in this video I give a few tips for your visit!
Is Ginzan Onsen worth it?
Is Ginzan Onsen worth it? I think it is if you’re in the area or passing by Yamagata. It’s definitely great for taking pictures, especially if you visit Ginzan Onsen in the winter. Having said that, It is a bit out of the way, and during the winter the most accessible road to it from Sendai is closed. So if it’s too far out of the way from the rest of your trip, although it looks beautiful in all the pictures online, it’s not the most amazing thing in Japan for sure. Plus the real onsen that Spirited Away was based off of is actually in Gunma, Japan. Visiting a Ryokan and staying the night will definitely enhance the experience, but if you come in expecting something spectacular and just want to see the strip and visit the shops you may be let down. Ginzan Onsen is beautiful, but there are a lot of wonderful places in Japan. Feel free to ask questions in the comments 🙂
