The Peaceful Side of Japan

It took 2 hours of train from #fukuoka #hakata with wonderful views throughout the ride. Arriving #yufu station, you will see the mountain in front of you immediately. But don’t forget to take picture with the train if you were taking #yufuin no Mori . After 15mins of walk passing through#yufuin Floral Village with all the gift shops and food, it brings you to #kinrinko #金鱗湖. First I was expecting Kinrinko to look more grand but then I found out what special about it. Surrounded by hot springs, it cause a temperature difference between the water and the environment. You will find a thin layer of steam right on top of the water surface giving the view another special coat. But the water is not that hot as you might imagine, sine you will be able to see gold fishes clearly, swimming around. There are some cafe and restaurants nearby for you to have a seat, relax and appreciate the beauty of the nature. Hope you will enjoy your trip to #yufu #fukuoka
