Hakone Mikawaya Ryokan: Stay in an Important Cultural Property

Mikawaya Ryokan has rooms with different atmospheres, including the main building, annex, and detached building. This time, I stayed in a room with an open-air bath in the annex, which is particularly popular. 🥺✨ Perhaps because of the current situation, the rooms where you can relax in the open-air bath in your room are popular. 🐈 There is an open-air bath on the balcony with an open feeling. It was really nice to be able to relax in the bath while watching the sky change from sunset to starry sky to sunrise. At the end, I just put my feet in and talked about nothing for a long time. I didn't even notice the people around me or the time. I once again realized how precious it is to be able to relax without being overwhelmed. At night, I ate Mikawaya's special rice koji amazake hotpot, which allowed me to feel the nature of Hakone, and I drank a little alcohol for the first time in a while, and my stomach and heart were filled and I slept well lol. It was my first time eating amazake hotpot, and it was so delicious that I kept drinking the soup, so I recommend it 🍲✨ In the morning, I got up early and took a walk to Horaien, which is famous for its azaleas and is located in front of the inn 🚶‍♀️ Surrounded by the great nature of Hakone, I was truly healed both body and mind 🌿✨ 📍Hakone Kowakudani #Mikawaya Ryokan Address: 503 Kowakudani, Hakone-machi, Ashigarashimo-gun, Kanagawa 250-0406 #Hakone trip #Hakone sightseeing #hakone #japan #hotel stay #summer trip Rating: ★★★★★ #Unique accommodation #Couple trip #Hot spring trip #Accommodation experience #Summer trip #Hot spring
