Relax and getaway in a soothing hot spring
For centuries, inns have taken advantage of the clear, soft waters around the river Kinugawa, and built many hot springs in the area.
Travelers in those days looked to the river hot springs for a relaxing getaway. The hot spring inns here are still popular places to stay after a day of sightseeing in Nikko .
