What To Expect
Snow Monkey Park (jigokudani Yaen Koen)
Jigokudani Yaen Koen, also known as the Snow Monkey Park, is a unique wildlife park in the mountains of Nagano, Japan. It is famous for its large population of wild Japanese macaques, or "snow monkeys," who come down from the forest to bathe in a natural hot spring, especially during the cold winter months. Visitors can observe the monkeys up close in their natural habitat as they relax in the warm water.
Matsumoto Castle
Your guide will lead you around the historic grounds of the castle while introducing you to its history, legends and secrets. Should you wish to, you can enter the castle itself and climb all the way to the top-floor of its six storeys or simply take the time to relax outside.
