Shirahone Onsen
Matsumoto is a hot spring resort in Matsumoto City, Shinshu, located roughly in the center of Nagano Prefecture. It is a hot spring that bubbles up on the eastern mountain side of Mt. Norikuradake, a famous scenic spot in Japan. Deep forests and the Yukawa Valley, a hot spring resort with abundant natural beauty, surround it.
Shirahone Onsen is said to have a history of over 600 years. The white mineral deposits in the hot spring water make it look like white bone powder, which is how it got its name—Shirahone Onsen. ♨️
