Autumn Day Trip to Popular Ginzan Onsen♨Hakama dress-up👘

[@GetToKnowJapanTogether]

The bus fare from Oishida Station to Ginzan Onsen has increased to 1000 yen one way from April 2023! And the Ginzan Onsen Tourist Information Center does not seem to offer luggage storage service, as of the time of writing, based on one of our viewer's experience.

[@Nabila-yc5gu]

hey how can you buy the bus ticket from oishida st to ginzan onsen

[@GetToKnowJapanTogether]

@@Nabila-yc5gu Hi! Thanks for your comment. When taking a bus from Oishida Station to Ginzan Onsen, you don't need to buy a ticket. Instead, you pay in cash when you board the bus. There is a box-like thing near the driver where you can put the cash. It's easy to understand if you observe someone in front of you paying.😉Enjoy your trip😁

[@TruthAdv]

​@@GetToKnowJapanTogether Hello, what if the bus is full? Is there any other way of getting there?

[@GetToKnowJapanTogether]

@@TruthAdv Hi😊Arigatou for your comment!🚌The bus service from the station may be increased depending on the day, especially during the winter season. However, if the bus is still full and you're unable to get on, an alternative option would be to take a cab. The cab fare for a one-way trip is usually less than 7,000 yen.

Emlyn-san😉Hello! Thank you for finding and watching my video. Are you planning to visit Ginzan Onsen next fall? The day I visited there was October 20th. Typically, the autumn foliage in Ginzan Onsen is at its peak from late October to early November. I hope you enjoy your trip to Ginzan Onsen!🍁😍🍁

@@GetToKnowJapanTogether Hi, thanks for the reply and insight. I do plan on visiting Ginzan Onsen on my next trip to Japan but it won't be anytime soon. I am still working on my itinerary on where to fit in Ginzan Onsen. Still deciding if should I visit this beautiful place during winter or autumn since I plan on traveling to the Tohoku region using the JR East Tohoku Area Pass.

[@GetToKnowJapanTogether]

@@Emlyn-o2x Sorry for the late reply. I was actually in Ginzan Onsen yesterday. (Today I was tired and slept hahaha) The way to get on the bus etc. has changed since the last time I was there, so I'll show you how to get on the bus in a video next time! Ginzan Onsen was wonderful in both autumn and winter, so I think you can enjoy it in any season! However, it was cold yesterday!😅❄

[@Neko-San453]

I really enjoy watching the video. I plan to visit Japan in December and definitely will visit Ginzan Onsen after watching your video. You mentioned the bus ticket is pre-paid. Where do buy the ticket? Or do we just pay the driver when we board the bus. Thank you so much. Looking forward to watch more of your informative videos.

[@GetToKnowJapanTogether]

Thank you for your kind comments😍 Please pay when you get on the bus🚌 There is a box near the driver's seat where you put your money. If it is in December, I think you can enjoy the snowy Ginzan Onsen!⛄ Have a nice trip!

[@toywizdood01]

Beautiful ❤ I will be staying in Yamagata in late December this year, would you recommend doing a similar day trip to Ginzan Onsen? or does it get too cold to be outside walking around the town?

[@GetToKnowJapanTogether]

Hi😊toywizdood01-san! Thank you for watching🙏Yes, it is quite cold in Ginzan during winter, but some hotels offer day-trip bathing options, so why not enjoy them? For example, at Ginzanso, you can bathe while admiring the beautiful snowscapes. Just remember to wear waterproof boots to keep your feet dry.😉 If you're staying in Tendo Onsen, there was a bus tour to Ginzan Onsen last year, and it's likely there will be one this year as well. It's usually easier to get a reservation there compared to Ginzan Onsen. Lastly, make sure not to miss out on the amazing ice monster (frost-covered trees) in Zao. They are truly magnificent. Enjoy your trip to Yamagata!☃❄

[@TopperJarto]

Great video! Where did you sleep that day?. Did you finally take a bath in Shiroganeyo? Do you know if you can rent a private onsen (kashikiri) in hotels without book a room?. Thank you so much

[@GetToKnowJapanTogether]

Hola, Topper-san😊Thanks for your comment! I stayed in Fukushima City before heading to Ginzan Onsen. After my visit, I went back to my home in Tokyo to sleep. Shiroganeyu was a small but pleasant hot spring I visited. As for renting a private onsen, there used to be a place called Omokageyu, but it seems to be closed now. I tried contacting the tourism association to check if they plan to reopen, but couldn't get through. 😅They might be busy with many tourists. Other hotels in the area do have private baths, but as far as I know, they are mainly for guests staying overnight.

[@gbear8207]

You said take a taxi back if you stay late? Is it easy to get a taxi?

[@GetToKnowJapanTogether]

Hello! GBear-san! Thank you for watching 😉 If you plan to take a taxi, I recommend making a reservation in advance! Please search for "尾花沢タクシー Obanazawa Taxi." On their homepage, you'll see an option for "Call a Taxi." Click on it to access the cab reservation form. The current one-way fare from Ginzan to Oishida Station ranges from approximately 6,400 yen to 7,000 yen. Have a fantastic trip!😘

[@rylethever1842]

Hello, do you need to reserve the bus ticket? Or are they only sold on the time that the bus departs, first come first serve basis, thanks

[@GetToKnowJapanTogether]

HiRyleth-san😁Thank you for watching! Yes, it is 'First come, first served.' Reservations are not required for the bus. Please pay 1,000 yen in cash when you board the bus. After you alight from the train, kindly proceed promptly to the bus stop😉

Nice video! Where do you go to pre-purchase the bus ticket at Ooishida station? Or can you pay when you board the bus? Also does the bus allow you to bring a medium sized suitcase (if staying overnight)? Thanks

[@GetToKnowJapanTogether]

Hi Melody-san😊Thanks for watching! Buses to Ginzan Onsen are prepaid in cash when boarding. (As far as I know, there were no tickets sold in advance.) The fare was changed to 1000 yen! When I boarded, other passengers were bringing their luggage to their seats. I'll ask the bus company if large luggage can be brought on board! However, the bus company's inquiry center is closed during the holidays in Japan, so I will reply to you after May 8!😅🙏

[@GetToKnowJapanTogether]

Hi, Melody-san! The bus company informed me that there is space available at the front of the bus if you wish to bring your suitcase on board. However, this space is limited, so if other passengers have a significant amount of luggage, your suitcase may not be able to be accommodated on the bus.

[@TruthAdv]

Thank you for this video, I'm looking to go there too, but it looks like it's very expensive to stay overnight at Ginzan Onsen. Did you stay overnight in Oishida?

[@GetToKnowJapanTogether]

Hi TrAdv-san😁Thanks again for your comment!! Ginzan Onsen can indeed be quite expensive and challenging to secure reservations. Instead of staying overnight in Oishida, I chose to stay in Fukushima and visited Ginzan as a day trip. Are you planning to visit Ginzan during winter? If so, a bus tour is available from Tendo Onsen to Ginzan Onsen specifically between December and February. Please search for "銀山温泉 Twilight Trip". The accommodation fee in Tendo Onsen is more reasonable than in Ginzan Onsen, and you can also have fun making shogi (Japanese chess) pieces!😉☖

[@TruthAdv]

@@GetToKnowJapanTogether Hello! I am planning to visit solo in mid-October (just like you!), so I don't think the winter bus from Tendo Onsen will be available. That's okay, I will look to staying at Fukushima and make it a day trip (I see that it is a 2 hour train from Ginzan Onsen). Your video was very helpful. Thank you! 😀

[@GetToKnowJapanTogether]

@@TruthAdv Hi 🥰 I'm so glad my video was helpful. Staying in Fukushima is nice, but there are many hotels in Yamagata which is a lot closer to Ginzan and they are perfect for solo travellers. Please choose the lodging that best suits your travel plans. Have an amazing trip!!🤩

Summer Vs winters ginzan?

[@GetToKnowJapanTogether]

Hi😁Hassan-sanThank you for your comment!😆 If you're into capturing shots of Ginzan Onsen town, winter with its snowy charm is a winner! However, I personally recommend exploring during the warmer seasons, where you can casually wander around Shirogane Park and the old silver mine. Taking a stroll in them is an absolute delight! Although I haven't experienced Ginzan Onsen in the summer, I'm confident that the trees around Shirogane Park are showcasing some gorgeous greenery!
