Ginzan Onsen | Japan Winter.
The retro wooden buildings, the warm yellow lights at night, and the falling snow create a dreamy scene at Ginzan Onsen in Yamagata Prefecture, Japan. It's listed as one of the must-visit places in a lifetime and is a pilgrimage site for fans of Spirited Away. It perfectly resembles Yubaba's bathhouse!
