What to expect

【Zao Fox Village】 Zao Fox Village is a fox-themed zoo located on Mount Zao, northwest of Shiroishi City. The park is home to over 100 foxes of about 6 different breeds, including the North fox familiar to Japanese people, as well as rare species such as the silver fox, blue fox, platinum fox, shadow fox, and cross fox. 【Ginzan Onsen】 Ginzan Onsen is said to be the model for Hayao Miyazaki's animated film "Spirited Away." The hot spring town is lined with wooden inns built from the Taisho era to the early Showa era on both sides of the river. The roads are covered with thick snow, and the gas lamps reflected on the river surface at dusk make you feel as if you have entered an anime world. A must-visit scenic spot in Japan during winter! 【Zao Juhyo Ropeway】 Since the ropeway cannot operate during blizzards, the "ice trees" known as snow monsters are a magical sight that you can only hope to encounter! 【Ouchi-juku】 Ancient Japanese architecture and modern lifestyles converge here. Traditional teahouses, old eave
