It takes 15 minutes by shuttle bus to reach Kijimadaira. It is winter now. From the bus windows, the snowy, rural landscape expands before my eyes.

Kijimadiara lies on a delta, nestled between 2 rivers.

The ski slopes are in this area. Maguse, a famous hot spring, lies upstream of the valley.

On the weekends, you can ride a tour bus for free.
