Zao Onsen is a well known hot spring and ski resort in the mountains of Yamagata Prefecture. It is one of only a few places in Japan where juhyo or “ice trees” can be seen. Also known as “snow monsters”, the trees take on curious shapes due to the heavy snowfall and freezing winds.
The snow monsters form around the peak of the Zao Ski Resort and are usually most spectacular around mid February. Access to the monsters is provided by a ropeway and a gondola for both skiers and non-skiers. In the evenings, the monsters around the summit are lit up to be enjoyed outside or from a warm seat in the cafe. Night skiing, however, is offered only in the lower elevations of the resort.
There is also night illumination of the snow monster’s, Kindly check the timing in the website and plan for watching.
Many free Foot spa are there in the city! Do explore and Enjoy
The place where we stayed was good but there were no supermarket to buy food nearby. We have to travel 30 min by car to reach supermarket.
