About Ginzan Onsen

Traditional hot springs town in east Yamagata

Ginzan Onsen in Yamagata Prefecture provides the setting to transport you back a hundred years to Japan's Taisho era. Stroll along the small streets on both sides of Ginzan River or over one of ten small bridges across the river for the best views of this traditional resort that has preserved its charm through the decades of the last century.
