Enjoy 2.5 hours of free time to explore the area! It's also home to two of Japan's National Parks, and is surrounded by lush nature that changes dramatically with the seasons. Bold and vibrant fall leaves, stunning snowy scenery in the winter, speckled-pink flowery sights in the spring, and vibrant verdure in the summer.
