Kinugawa Onsen
"Kinugawa" - what an interesting name...Angry-Ogre River!
The entire economy of this little town seems rests on tourism with most of its large hotels located along the steep cliffs of the angry-ogre. Apparantly, it had seen better times - once you're out of the neat railway station, you notice that most of the buildings have this mildewed, ill-maintained look about them. But the Onsens (public baths) here definitely worth the experience!
The very thought of relaxing in a pool of 44C water, watching a full moon hiding behind the snow covered pines... :)
