Slowing Things Down in Nozawa Onsen
Slowing Things Down in Nozawa Onsen
We have to admit, we do love this time of year in Nozawa Onsen. Time seems to stand still, allowing us to fully appreciate the transition of seasons. The dwindling crowds are offering all who visit a glimpse into the authentic local life here in Nozawa Onsen. Some restaurants are starting to close their doors for the season as we transition past the busy period. We’re lucky to have plenty of options, with many local-run restaurants still open and just a short stroll away. Despite the rainy afternoon we had here yesterday, a few Nozawa Holidays guests mentioned it was unnoticed up the mountain! Today we may experience similar rain conditions looking to clear up by the afternoon. Watch this space, sunnier spring days are ahead! As always, stay safe and enjoy!
