What is it that draws you to explore Gunma? For many, it’s the abundant nature – tall mountains and deep canyons, wild rivers and vast lakes. But for many more, Gunma’s tradition and culture make for a broad range of experiences that cannot be replicated anywhere else. First and foremost, Gunma’s great claim to fame has been an abundance of legendary hot springs that have been ranked as the best in Japan for decades. Gunma is more than onsen alone, however, and visiting the temples and shrines – as well as one Scottish castle! – offers up aesthetic, historic and spiritual intrigue for any visitor. That’s not to forget the classics – Japanese food and kimono, all of which can be experienced with the signature local Gunma style!
