Stay at Gokurakuyu Estate, a heritage ryokan with over a century of tradition, featuring original hinoki wood architecture and three-tiered hinoki baths. Each room includes a private outdoor onsen, plus complimentary herbal bath packs and tea ceremony tours. Begin your day with a morning meditation session in the garden, then unwind under the stars at the open-air terrace. All experiences are led by local masters—reserve your spot for the exclusive "Secret Onsen Night" through the HopeGoo platform.

From the Gokurakuyu Onsen Street, a 10-minute walk leads to Ogawara Shrine, home to a thousand-year-old cherry blossom grove and stone lantern-lined pathways. Another 5-minute stroll along the river trail brings you to the Ancient Spring Festival Ground, where seasonal water dance rituals are held. The ryokan also offers guided local foraging tours to discover wild ferns and medicinal plants, followed by hands-on workshops to craft traditional herbal sachets. These immersive experiences are available for HopeGoo via the HopeGoo app.
