We spent a day in Yufuin and a night at the Onsen in Yamashiroya.
I wish I had taken more pictures of Yamashiroya because it was super cool. It felt like it was decorated in the ’60s and hasn’t been touched since. There are still magazines and games from that period. And the onsens were very relaxing.
Yamashiroya Onsen
There were many different onsens with different styles. I only took a photo of this one, but the others were also very cool.
Yamashiroya Food
The food was amazing. The overall experience and the deal of this place were great.
Typically, in these Japanese Onsens that I’ve been to, at least, you pay a set amount of money, and you get unlimited access to the onsens. They also give you a yukata, a room, and food for the night. We got breakfast as well.
The Dining Room
The Food
There was a variety of food. The eggplant was the best I’ve ever had, and the Yakiniku was great.
A Day In Yufuin
After spending the night at the onsen, we spent the day in Yufuin, a very cool little tourist town.
The Lake Hotel
Kinrinko is an awesome lake in Yufuin that is very photogenic.
The Floral Village
In the town of Yufuin, this Floral Village is like something out of Alice and Wonderland. They even have little rabbits and ducks you can feed.
Getting this shot was next to impossible. There were so many tourists that I had to wait about 15 minutes, grab a few shots over time, and use pieces with nobody in the scene to stitch together.
The Yufuin Doctor Fish
There are a few places you can find Doctor Fish here. I’ve seen them at the airport in Bali before but have never tried them out.
For the first few minutes, as they start eating the dead skin off your feet, it tickles pretty well, but you eventually get used to it. When they’re done, your feet feel so clean.
The Vending Machine Kid
While waiting for the train in Yufuin, I saw a kid trying to get a drink in the Vending machine. i just liked the shot.
We’ve been having some pretty crappy weather, so I haven’t been doing that much photography the last few days. We’ve had a few rainy days. Hopefully, it clears up soon.
