  • Staying at this hotel after a day of sightseeing was so relaxing. The hot springs were super comfortable and really soothing.

  • There are a lot of specialty shops along the streets of Otaru, and they're even more visible than Rokkatei.

  • The ancient trees lining the stairs are massive and you can just tell they've been there forever. The torii gate on the water is the most famous spot—expect a long line of people waiting to snap a photo.

  • There are so many different baths here—wine, green tea, coffee, and even outdoor pools with slides, over thirty types in total! You can soak while enjoying beautiful views of the Hakone mountains.

  • Kawagoe has preserved a lot of old buildings and historical sites. Walking down the old streets has a special vibe. There are all kinds of shops, and even the Starbucks blends right in.

  • It really feels like stepping back in time to the Showa era in Japan. You get to try ramen from all over the country, and each shop has its own unique style.
