6D5N Hokkaido winter trip - Day 4 & 5 - Jozankei hotspring and Asahiyama Zoo

Day 4, we experienced an outdoor hot spring. We enjoyed the hotspring outdoor with the snow failing to our face! We did it in a 5-star hotel + delicious lunch buffet + free shuttle bus from the station at only RM117 or 3,240 yen per person! Totally worth it!!

Our hot spring day trip hotel: MORI NO UTA
