During the summer in Japan, we took the train to the mountainous Gunma Prefecture and stayed at a ryokan (a traditional Japanese inn with communal baths). Gunma is known for its onsen (hot springs) and there are plenty of ryokans, but we give Sekizenkan a shot. Can you believe it's over 300 years old? And the red bridge served as a model for Ghibli Studio's "Spirited Away."
The neighborhood is filled with greenery and calm. No crowds when we went, so fellow introverts, you will especially love it here! Made up of 3 buildings and 8 floors, Sekizenkan has at least 6 main bathing options. Some bathhouses are communal while others are private. Some are mixed gender, others have separate baths for men and women. Depending on your room type, you may get a private bath as well. If you need time away from the city and want to take it slow, this is the place. Watch the video for the full tour! We even go through a mysterious tunnel.

Mina, that hanging dried ball is called sugidama and it's made out of cedar! They're traditionally hung outside of sake breweries when a new batch of sake is made. When hung, the sugidama is fresh and green and you can tell how old the sake batch is by how dried out the sugidama is outside.

[@robolaserkittens5633]

Your voice is so soothing and makes it feel like I’m actually there! I’ve always wanted to go to japan and these videos are wonderful tours and vlogs :)

[@sovannypond-tor8867]

hi mina :) i am so happy i came across your account. my anxiety has been really bad recently, its hard for me to fall asleep but watching your videos calms be down. thank you for spreading love and happiness, for exploring different cultures and seeing beauty everywhere you go.

[@pianomusician4life]

The ryoken that I stayed at was in the middle of the mountains and took a really long time to find the van to take us there (yes a white van). But it was worth it. We got a 3 floor room with an outdoor shower and private onsen. It was completely covered with trees and you couldn't hear anything other than nature (birds, wind, and a creek below). I highly recommend it when you go to Japan. It also came with dinner and breakfast the next day. There was even a traditional Japanese robe that they let you borrow (females can choose the color, unfortunately males had one color).

[@fedyf3171]

Hey I wanna ask can you go to most of these ryokens without knowing japanese, like would that be a problem?

[@jen4dougie4eva]

@@fedyf3171 so i went to one last year and I only had thank you, please, those kind of phrases memorized. I communicated with the owners with lots of hand actions and smiles. Didn't really have an issue! Ended up having full conversations in the baths with Japanese ladies where we didn't speak each other's languages either. You'll make do!
