Kusatsu Onsen is an idyllic mountain town located in Gunma Prefecture, Japan. Famous for its healing geothermal waters and fun festivals, this secluded onsen resort is a must-visit destination for all travelers. Stroll down charming alleys in your cotton yukata and wooden sandals breathing in the aroma of Kusatsu, and don't forget to visit the yubatake hot water fields in the center of town while you're there. Afterward, enjoy traditional onsen manju sweets, cool off with an onsen tamago - eggs boiled in the hot spring - and relax in Sainokawara Park. For an unforgettable experience, why not try taking part in one of the town's unique events, such as the Flower Festival, Shirane Shrine Festival or the Hot Spring Appreciation Festival? Journey to Kusatsu Onsen and bask in its restorative ambiance today!
