xaver Says: Yumomi is traditional a method to cool the hot spring water by stirring the water with large wooden paddles. Women churning the water while singing traditional Kusatsu-bushi is definitely something people shouldn't miss, even because unless you come here for skying there is...
xaver Says: Yubatake which means hot water field is the symbol of Kusatsu. It is a facility where hot spring water (approx. 55C) from the source of the hot spring located on the upper side flows through a wooden irrigation canal, is cooled to a good temperature, and then sent to the...
xaver Says: Walking around Kusatsu centre is a unique experience as the sulphur smell is everywhere and the water vapour coming out of the ground gives really a particular effect.If you want you can stop and enjoy the hot spring water qualites soaking your feet in one of the many...
Maxiediva Says: I saw many things that went too fast for me to get on camera. Some KODAK moments happened at train stations or when the train slows down for an instant. Here are some shots in Takasaki and along the way to Naganohara Kusatsuguchi station on JR line.
stonefree Says: A huge public open-air bath is at the very the end of this park. On the way to the public bath, hot spring is springing here and there as forming a brook.

stonefree Says: "Yuabatake" which cools the hot hot water just gushed and carried out through a downspout is the symbol-existence of Kusatsu Hot Spring. From the fountainhead, hot water flows as it may overflow, and the scent of hot water drifts in a hit. Since there are also benches and...
Inn Mizuki: a very Japanese experience
xaver Says: This a very small inn just outside the centre of the town.Hotels in Kusatsu are very expensive so we had no choice and we stayed in this small inn where you have a Tatami room with naterass, fouton and pillow.Everything is very basic, no toilette in the room, no men toilette...
Kouakan Ryokan: The Best Loved Hot Spring Spa / Onsen
Maxiediva Says: Kusatsu is similar to the St. Moritz of sorts. There is hardly any cheap accommodations around and finding Kouakan Ryokan was certainly an accomplishment. It's more like a Minshuku than a ryokan and run by a lovely couple who hardly speaks English. There is no address in...

Along Kusatsu Onsen street: Pickles, Manju and Souvenirs
Maxiediva Says: Along the street from Yubatake to Sai No Kawara park are shops selling all the souvenirs you can pack into your overnighter. You'll come across the manju shop that gives free manju and green fee and further up, you'll find another shop selling manju as well. Both are...

stonefree Says: This hill is famous for having brought up Kenji Ogiwara, a golden medalist. So did my father, too.
Mr.Sparkle Says: yes, its true... information about Gunma-ken is hard to come by. The Rough Guide book has NO information and VT doesn't even list it as a prefecture. Granted, its not really a popular travel destination, but still...anyway, here is an English Language Website that gives some...
