I didn't realize until I was writing about this Japan trip that I really did not take too many pictures, and most of my pictures were taken from my crappy phone. Sorry!!!! This is the last day in Japan, and we decided to spend it on a great onsen experience. We got up super early and took the very first train possible to Yurari, which is 2 hours from Tokyo. After the train, we took a taxi to the final destination. It was SOOOO EXPENSIVE!!!! But we really couldn't find any other transportation to get there. We chose this place because it is known for its Fuji mountain view!
For those who are not comfortable with being naked in public, they also have private rooms. We picked one of the private rooms (Each room have different types of bath) and as you can see from the pictures above, each room has a big window so that you can enjoy the bath with an awesome view. We took some pictures in the private room, but for the public baths, you cannot take pictures (for good reason). For the public bath, they have 2 levels, and there are different types of bath that has different effects. Unfortunately, it was very foggy the day we went, so we couldn't see the Mt Fuji, but it was snowing!!!!! Bonus!!!! Although we cannot enjoy the Mt Fuji view, we got to enjoy the hot spring in the snow! It was pretty awesome!
After the hot spring, we decided to have a slightly luxurious meal since it was the last day in Japan! We got a private dining room, and ordered the pork pot! The food came in a little train through the window!!! So cute!! They have an electronic device for ordering so that they won't interrupt you unless you ordered something. It is really nice to get to have your own dining room! This is such a perfect place for a couple! Private onsen, private dining room! Definitely make a pretty good date! We went back to the public bath for a little longer after the meal before we headed back to the city. We found a bus that might take us back to the train station, but we ended up waiting for it in the snow for 2 hours (I got sick the next day), and we never saw the bus!!! We ended up calling a taxi back, and we felt like we wasted so much time!!!!
Our flight is early morning tomorrow, so before we headed back to the hotel, we decided to wander around the city just a little longer. We went to the China town and we also made it to the Tokyo Skytree!!! We didn't make it to the top because we got there a little too late, but we were glad that we made it there because it is REALLY TALL!!!! It was cloudy that day, so you can actually see the tower covered by a low cloud. Tokyo Skytree (634m) is the tallest structure in Japan, as well as the tallest tower in the world! We ended our Japan trip on a "high" note, and we both felt like we didn't see enough! We will be back!
