Kusatsu Onsen

Kusatsu Hot Spring is located in the north Kanto area of Japan, one of the favorite hot springs of the locals, and there are few foreign tourists. The town environment is very beautiful.

It's fun, it's exciting, it's fun every project, and it's a long time for each project, it makes people feel like the queue is worth it. This trip just happened to meet students in Tokyo for spring break and study tour, so there will be more people, the queue time for popular projects is about 60 minutes, if you don't like queues, you can buy priority channels, basically every project has priority channels. The disadvantage is that the time of the project switch is too random. Before entering the park, we told us that the opening time of the high-flying car was from 9:30 to 7:00 pm, but it was suddenly turned off at 12:30. It was forbidden to queue up and it was not played. It was still very regrettable. In addition, there is a jumping machine. The notice before entering the park was written before 6 o'clock in the evening, and it was closed in advance at 4 o'clock. Even the people who were still in the queue were evicted. I was in line for a long time and I worked hard to make a white effort. Muye Village is basically a restaurant, exhibition hall and theater. There are no large-scale projects, or mainly visits, and limited sales around, which is very interesting. The things inside are also very delicious, the price is not expensive, and the price outside the amusement park is basically the same, you don't need to bring food in, you can taste the food inside, you need a long queue outside Daiguanshan apple sugar, there is no need to queue up, the chips are also delicious.

Good non-slip shoes, socks, walking sticks, warm clothing, sunscreen lotion, sunscreen hat, at least two bottles of water, chocolate, hunger-relief food, sports drinks. Try to reduce weight as much as possible and do what you can. The scenery from the fifth to sixth station is already very beautiful. The black rocks are difficult to climb.

Oshino Hakkai (the Eight Seas of Oshino)

【Scenery】 It is said that the Oshino Hakkai existed 1,200 years ago. It is composed of eight clear fresh springs formed by the melting snow of Mount Fuji and filtering through the strata: Kamaike, Dimuike, Choshiike, Turbidike, Yongike, Mirrorike, Acorus and Departure. The average water temperature is 13℃, and it is known as the Jiuzhaigou of Japan. 【Transportation】 It is also very convenient to go to the Oshino Hakkai from Kawaguchiko. There are several buses every day, and you can take them without making an appointment in advance. The one-way fare is only 560 yen.
