[Nagano] The only place in the world where you can see monkeys bathing in hot springs up close

📍Jigokudani Monkey Park, Nagano Did you know that there is a spot where you can see Japanese macaques bathing in hot springs up close, deep in the mountains at an altitude of 850 meters in the northern part of Nagano Prefecture? ? Jigokudani Monkey Park opened in 1964 in a place where groups of Japanese macaques have been living in the wild for a long time. 🐵 It is a popular spot that attracts attention not only from Japan but also from people all over the world as a spot where you can see Japanese macaques bathing in hot springs up close. ♨️ When I went there, there were more foreign tourists than Japanese tourists! The monkeys are used to people and don't run away when you approach them, and they look very comfortable as they bathe in and out of the hot springs. ♨️🐵 ⚠️Monkeys are known for bathing in hot springs, but that is one way they survive the harsh winter cold! ! Therefore, it seems that they do not actively bathe in hot springs during warm seasons, so it is recommended to go during the cold seasons☃️ *It takes about 10 to 15 minutes from the parking lot to the entrance, and about 25 minutes to walk from the entrance to the place where the monkeys are bathing in the hot springs, so wear comfortable shoes! ! 👞 There is snow in winter, so boots or snow shoes are recommended.
