• Snow Monkey Park (Jigokudani Yaen Koen) - Jigokudani Yaen Koen, commonly referred to as the Snow Monkey Park, is a remarkable wildlife sanctuary nestled in the mountains of Nagano, Japan. It is renowned for its large community of wild Japanese macaques, or “snow monkeys,” who descend from the forest to enjoy the natural hot springs, particularly during the chilly winter months. Visitors have the opportunity to observe these monkeys closely in their natural environment as they soak in the warm waters.
• Matsumoto Castle - A guide will escort visitors around the historic castle grounds, sharing its history, legends, and secrets. If desired, visitors can enter the castle and ascend to the top floor of its six stories, or simply relax outside and enjoy the scenery.
• Zenko-ji Temple - This temple is stunning and stands out as a favorite compared to many other shrines in Japan. With fewer tourists, it offers a chance to truly appreciate the surroundings. The temple is beautifully preserved, featuring numerous small shrines and a gate leading up to it, surrounded by lovely trees, plants, and lanterns. There are also many quaint restaurants and shops for souvenirs. The walk to the temple, just 25 minutes from Nagano station, is delightful and well worth the effort. It’s truly a beautiful place.
