Tochigi Nikko City

Stay in Kinugawa Onsen

One of the Kanto region’s leading large-scale onsen resorts, this onsen area features large ryokan and hotels lined up overlooking the magnificent Kinugawa Gorge. Also known as “Tokyo’s secluded retreat,” its appeal lies in the convenience of direct access from central Tokyo via Tobu Railway limited express trains, including the Spacia X. With a history dating back to its discovery in the Edo period, it is known for its alkaline, skin-friendly waters. As a base for sightseeing routes combining Nikko attractions such as the World Heritage Site Nikko Toshogu Shrine, it has become an international tourist destination where a very large number of international visitors stay overnight.
