Ginzan Onsen (銀山温泉, Silver Mountain Hot Spring) is located in the mountains of Yamagata prefecture. While the traditional hot spring and surrounding town are splendid anytime of year due to traditional inns preserving the charm of Japan's Taisho Era (1912-1926), it's particularly gorgeous in the winter as the hot spring town becomes blanketed in snow.
