Japan Walk - Yugawara (湯河原) - 4K

In this video we’ll show you Yugawara(湯河原), Kanagawa.
Yugawara is one of the leading Hot Spring resorts in Japan and famous for being an onsen (hot spring) town. It is an area where you can enjoy great nature as well as fresh seafood, as it is surrounded by mountains and ocean.
Around Yugawara there are many famous sightseeing areas, such as Atami, Izu, Hakone,Odawara as well as Mt. Fuji. They are all located close to Yugawara. Among the various onsen facilities, there is a footbath called Doppo no Yu, where you soak only your feet in the hot spring water. It is very popular among visitors.
One of Yugawara's main specialties is its famous tangerine oranges. Around November you can see them growing all over the town. Going to Tangerine picking in a Tangerine orchard is an recommended option, or you can buy fresh Tangerine at shop which Tangerine come from the Orchard directly.
There are also a variety of events to enjoy, from traditional events to seasonal events such as a fireworks display and Halloween. Among others, Yukake Matsuri, in which groups splash hot spring water on each other's Mikoshi (portable shrines), is an event unique to the onsen resort, and is popular among both Japanese people and overseas visitors. Since this is a hot spring town, the onsen waters can be enjoyed in most of the accommodations in Yugawara town.
Moreover, since the Sagami bay is within walking distance, there are many restaurants and Ryokans ( Japanese style Inn ) where you can enjoy many dishes including Sushi and Sashimi made with fresh fishes and shellfishes. Of course, marine sports, fishing and others activities can be enjoyed, too.
