What is a Ryokan? Ryokans are the best way to experience Japanese culture and enjoy the true comforts of Japanese hospitality and service.
Hot springs have a very long history in Japan, and they are an intimate part of Japanese culture. There are over 3,000 "onsen" ,or hot springs, in Japan. Many can be found at the ryokans available on Japanese Guest Houses.
There is one shuttle bus a day from JR Asahikawa Station between October 10 and April 30 (reservation needed), or else it takes 30 minutes by taxi to get to Hotel Taisetsu from Kamikawa Station.
