【山形・ハイエース車中泊】東北の草津、蔵王温泉街を散策/郷土料理を食べる！冬休み旅♪

Good evening, winter vacation has begun. What are your plans for winter vacation? I’m thinking of going to Tohoku during the first half of winter vacation. I will mainly go to Yamagata and Akita prefectures. If I have time, I would like to go to Niigata as well.

Now that the cold wave is gone and it’s getting warmer, there seems to be less snow at all ski resorts. Judging from the news and the internet, it doesn’t seem to be snowing. Maybe there’s more snow in places like Niigata. I hope we can see snow this winter vacation

There may be snow in the mountains. I’ll have to go and check it out let’s go We have arrived at Yamagata Prefecture. The current temperature is 0℃. There’s a little bit of snow on the edge. There’s a lot more snow left than I expected. Get off the expressway at the Yamagata Kaminoyama exit

There is no snow around here at all. There is more snow in Yonezawa I’m going to the supermarket now to buy food. After that, I will go to the public bath Apparently there’s a public bathhouse about 10 minutes by car from the roadside station we’re going to today.

Apparently it’s open until 12pm. I don’t know where the final reception will be, so get there early. We arrived at the supermarket. It looks like it’s open 24 hours. Let’s go Now that I’m done shopping, I’m heading to a public bath called Basho no Yu. let’s go

We arrived at the public bath. The lights are on so it looks like they are open for business. Public bath hours: 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. I felt refreshed. the bath is warm However, there was a charge for the woman’s hair dryer. The man had a free hair dryer.

Women had hair dryers for 100 yen for 5 minutes and 20 yen for 10 minutes. Let’s head to the roadside station Arrived at Roadside Station Yamagata Zao The parking lot is large. There are parking lots on the left and right. Let’s go around This is the toilet. bright

Let’s prepare dinner. We will make Yamagata’s local cuisine, imoni. I bought soy sauce with dashi, which is popular in Yamagata. If you want to make imoni, you can use this soy sauce. It tastes like soba soup. Add dashi soy sauce Let’s put more You can eat now How does it taste?

I added too much water. It has no taste. Let’s add a little more soy sauce I’ve never eaten imoni so I don’t know what it tastes like. Let’s eat authentic imoni tomorrow the next day good morning It’s cold. At night, the temperature dropped to -3 degrees.

After breakfast, take a walk around the roadside station. Roadside Station Yamagata Zao held its grand opening on December 3, 2023. A car sleeping space and imoni plaza are scheduled to open in spring 2024. Imoni Hiroba is a space where you can have an imoni party without bringing anything.

Now, let’s head to Zao Onsen let’s go It’s sunny. Warm at -7℃ The mountains are beautiful. Snow does not melt at high altitudes We arrived at a place that looked like a ski resort. We’ll be arriving soon. There is a ropeway and some people are skiing.

I headed to the free municipal parking lot, but it was closed and roped off. I’m currently parked in the ropeway parking lot. Let’s wait for my husband to confirm. how was it? I was told that it was okay to park in this parking lot. And it looks like parking is free today.

Because the parking lot here looks terrible so I stopped here. You can say that here, here, here, right here. It seems that the ropeway here cannot take you to the top of the mountain.

It seems that the ropeway here cannot take you to the top of the mountain. You can go to the top of the mountain by using another Zao ropeway. I’m currently in a parking lot called Zao Central Ropeway Onsen Station, and there seem to be three hot springs called Sotoyu in this area.

There are hot springs called Shimoyu, Kamiyu, and Kawaharayu. There is no shower as it is an outdoor bath. Just soak in the hot springs Let’s soak in the hot springs and take a walk. let’s go There’s also a convenience store. Is this an inn? I think it’s an inn

The hot springs are very hot. Warms you from the core of your body Was the hot spring a sulfur spring? The hot springs are sulfur springs. The footbath is also a sulfur spring. The sulfur spring will warm your cold body. It’s a nice hot spring

I returned to the Zao Central Ropeway. This area looks like a ski resort. Let’s go. I wanted to go to the top of the mountain and see the frost-covered trees, but there wasn’t much snow. Next time it snows a lot, let’s go see it. I’m hungry, so let’s go eat some food.

This area is Yamagata Station. There are many local cuisine restaurants around Yamagata Station. Let’s go eat local cuisine! If there is no parking lot, please park at a coin parking lot. The restaurant I was going to was inside the station building.

I couldn’t park in the station building’s parking lot due to height restrictions, so I parked in a coin parking lot. It’s here. It’s a restaurant called Benibana-tei. Restaurant Benibanatei is located on the 2nd floor of Yamagata Station East Exit Traffic Center.

The second floor is a restaurant area, with restaurants where you can eat Yamagata beef and Yonezawa beef.
