Ginzan Onsen
銀山温泉

Nostalgic hot spring resort:

Ginzan Onsen is located at the foot of Ou mountains range in the Middle Yamagata prefecture, which became known for the famous TV drama Oshin in the world. Inns built 100 years ago are lined along the both sides of the river. Inns of the wooden balconies of three levels or four levels and the sidewalk of the gaslight form a beautiful hot spring resort. Because there are two public bath houses of “Kajikayu” and “Shiroganeyu” available to the visitors in the hot spring resort, they need not stay for night. There are silver mine way trace and a gorge in the depths of the hot spring resort, so visitors can enjoy it by way of a walk.
