Relax at a traditional ryokan, enjoy therapeutic onsen baths, and immerse yourself in the artistic charm of Obuse, home to Hokusai's masterpieces. Conclude your journey with a visit to the majestic Zenkoji Temple and sample local sake or wine before returning to Tokyo.

  • Witness Japanese macaques in their natural habitat
  • Stay at a traditional ryokan and relax in soothing natural hot springs
  • Explore the artistic history of Obuse, Hokusai's stunning last masterpiece on the temple's ceiling and Hokusai-kan Museum

While the sight of snow monkeys bathing in winter is magical, Yudanaka and Obuse offer captivating experiences in every season. Lush greenery in spring and summer, and vibrant foliage in autumn create equally stunning backdrops for your escape.
