The whole building is abandoned and the sign is still standing here. Although it is rusty and peeling, it looks like it has been disintegrated. It is very dilapidated. The place where Japan’s supernatural shows will go. The water hot spring is located in the Tone River basin in the northern part of Gunma Prefecture. Its history can be traced back to Japan’s Warring States Period. It was originally named Yuhara Hot Spring as a “secret hot spring” in the mountains to attract health practitioners. After World War II, transportation conditions further improved. The water hot spring and Kusatsu hot spring were Izumi Kaho Onsen is listed as one of the three most famous hot springs in Gunma . Various hot spring hotels have sprung up from the ground to form a unique hot spring culture and regional brand. However, according to the colors on the picture, they are now faded and withered. There are basically no open shops and few tourists. If you drive to Minakami Onsen from Tokyo, it takes about two hours and 20 minutes. You can also take the JR to Takasaki and transfer to the Joetsu Line local train to Minakami Station or Take the Joetsu Shinkansen and get off at Jomo Kogen Station and then transfer to a bus. The whole journey takes 2 to 3 hours. This is next to Minami Station on the JR Joetsu Line. You can see the snowy mountains. There are quite a lot of people on this weekend . The street in front of the station has some shops and restaurants. Then there are shops selling souvenirs and souvenirs. Behind these shops, you can see ホテル (hot) written on a blue pillar. el) Here is a particularly famous ruined hotel near Minakami Station. The hotel is just two minutes in front of the station. From this angle, you can see the hotel’s name sign still standing here. Although it has rusted and peeled off , you can actually see from this place that the entire building has been abandoned. The Omiya Hotel opened in 1964, with a total of 7 floors and about 60 rooms, which can accommodate 330 guests. The hotel has large, medium and small banquet halls. There is also a large 10,000-person hot spring bath underground . Because the hotel is located in front of JR Minami Station, it has brought many customers. However , a serious elevator accident occurred in the hotel in 1989. An old man was taking the elevator on the 5th floor. When the elevator door opened, no elevator box appeared , and he fell directly from the 5th floor to the 1st floor. The old man was seriously injured as a result. Investigation after the accident showed that he was drunk. The hotel had serious violations in the installation of elevators and regular safety inspections. As a result, a large number of guests canceled reservations and the hotel closed down. Eventually, with the collapse of Japan’s bubble economy, the hotel never recovered under the pressure of economic difficulties and market competition, and finally became the ruins in front of us. The snow is very thick today. The road in front of the door has been completely blocked by snow. It is impossible to enter. I went to this restaurant and ordered the Sichuan set meal or the Mapo tofu set meal and then the miso soup that came with it. The one next to it is the Joetsu Line. If you walk along the road in front of the station, you can go to the real hot spring street. It seems that there is no one there. There is the Tone River underneath. The entire hot spring street is built along the river. The sign looks quite old. There was originally a walking trail for the Tatene River underneath . You should be able to see a suspension bridge along the trail and walk to the other side of the river. But now the suspension bridge is completely abandoned and you can’t walk on it. After crossing the bridge, you can’t actually see this side now because it has been completely demolished. In the past, this side should also be a large local hotel. Although it has been completely demolished now , there was still a water in front of you not long ago. Another famous ruin on the hot springs is the Aokai Hotel. During the heyday of the water hot springs, the Aohai Hotel and other hot spring hotels jointly built the region’s tourist business card. However, with the changes in the economic environment and the intensification of competition in the hot spring market, the operating conditions of the Aohai Hotel began to deteriorate . In order to attract group guests and adult consumption, the hotel even tried to introduce large-scale services and adults. Although the business strategy of entertainment projects attracted some customers for a certain period of time , it also caused controversy in public opinion and weakened the original traditional image of hot spring hotels. Of course, with the overall decline of the water hot springs , the main hotel building was eventually closed due to poor management. Some of the ancillary buildings were also converted into other facilities. This should be the hot spring street. Because the weather is clear , there is always snow melt water. There is no other sound other than the sound of dripping. It seems that there are basically no open shops and no tourists in the entire shopping street . There is a hotel called Ichiyotei in the middle of the shopping street. It seems that it must have been disintegrated. This hotel turned out to be a very famous local hotel. It has seven floors above ground and two underground floors. It is a very large hot spring hotel . Later, it was said that it was founded in 48 years. In fact, it has been open for a long time. By 2016 , the whole operation could not continue and it was completely bankrupt. Then it was officially closed in 2019. It is said that the local people now want to use the original location of his to do some new projects to promote the reconstruction and revitalization of the entire town. There is a karaoke OK opposite Yiyetei. Pub is a karaoke bar that must have been closed for a long time. There is a map here, but it seems that it was set up a long time ago. The entire color has faded, but you can still vaguely see the water hot springs. The entire hot spring town hot spring street was still very large at that time. There are many shops on both sides. It is estimated that many shops have closed their operations now. In the mid-to-late 20th century, water hot springs prospered as a traditional Japanese hot spring resort . Gaofeng not only provides leisure venues for surrounding residents , but also attracts many foreign tourists. However, like many declining hot spring towns in Japan, the collapse of Japan’s bubble economy has caused a decline in consumption levels, a decrease in tourism expenditures , especially the traditional member travel activities of corporate groups . The hotel utilization rate has dropped significantly, and a large number of guest rooms are vacant. In addition, the economic contraction has caused many hotels to lack funds for renovation and renovation, making it difficult for old facilities to improve their competitiveness, thus accelerating bankruptcy and The phenomenon of abandonment. The younger generation prefers modern and personalized accommodation experience , which greatly reduces the appeal of hot spring hotels. Then go inside and there is a hotel called Bao Hotel. This hotel is definitely closed. The snow in front of the door has not been swept at all. This hotel looks quite big. In fact, it is a 4-story building. In addition
, of course, there are some specific reasons in various places, such as the elevator accident mentioned above and the hot spring fraud that has occurred in water hot springs. There are many hot spring fraud cases. In order to reduce costs or due to poor management, spring hotels used tap water or well water to heat and pretend to be natural hot springs. Once this hot spring fraud was exposed , it caused people to doubt and lose confidence in the entire hot spring environment in the area , thus affecting the overall market demand. This hot spring hotel called Lai Qu Lai Sou should also be a hot spring hotel. It seems that it should also be closed. It should also be a closed hotel , but there are still some stores that are still open. Stores like this pharmacy and this one should still be open normally, it should be a local bakery and coffee shop. Of course, as a hot spring town , there are still bathhouses for daily hot springs. In addition, as for the situation of water hot springs, another point is the changes in the transportation network, especially the opening of the Joetsu Shinkansen and the construction of highways. The evolution of these infrastructures is improving. The convenience also unexpectedly led to the decline in the popularity of hot spring streets. The Joetsu Shinkansen was opened in 1982 to connect Tokyo and Niigata. The main purpose was to improve the connection between Tokyo and Niigata areas and to bring together the Gunma Line and Echigo areas along the line. Due to the high-speed direct characteristics of the Shinkansen, many tourists choose to go directly to more attractive destinations such as Niigata, Echigo-Yuzawa, etc. Stop at Minakami Hot Spring There is no Shinkansen station with direct access to Minakami Hot Spring. In 1985, the Kan-Etsu Expressway was fully connected to connect Tokyo and Niigata . In the past , tourists who relied on rail travel would stop at Minakami Station and take a hot spring bath or stay overnight. However, after the opening of the expressway , self-driving tourists tended to go straight to ski resorts or other sightseeing spots instead of entering the hot spring town. Originally, JR Joetsu The frequency of ordinary trains on the line has also been reduced accordingly. The transportation convenience of Minakami Onsen has been declining day by day , which has affected the overall utilization rate. Changes in the economy, accidents, and transportation methods have created such a depressed and declining scene that many other hot spring towns in Japan can also see . It is quite strange that many shops are actually not sure whether they are still open. Like this one, a flag is placed in front of the door. It stands to reason that the chess pieces in front of the door should be open, but the whole store looks closed. Thank you for your patronage all year round. We are closed. Then the hotel by the river looks very dilapidated from the outside. It looks like it is closed. The walls are also peeling off, but I just checked on my mobile phone that this hotel is still open. I guess this half of the house is not. It may not need to be so big when in use , so there is basically no big maintenance on this half here. Maybe on that side, it is mainly the part that is currently in use , but the entire hotel is still open. But it is true that such a large-scale hot spring hotel now , especially when there are so few tourists in this place , it should be difficult to fully use the entire building. After all, the cost will be higher because The snow is really too heavy. It looks like there should be a small footbath pavilion up here, but now the snow is so thick that it is difficult to walk in . Although there are some shops open , they are completely closed. There are ruins of shops. There is one every two or three steps. This coffee shop should also be completely closed. There is a very big building at the end of the street outside the town. The apartment has a large number of rooms. It looks quite new. I checked this apartment and it is quite famous in the local area. And the current price is really cheap. One room is about 3 million 2 million yen, which is about 100,000 or 200,000 yuan per square meter. The room looks pretty good. There are many hot spring towns like this in Japan . During the period of rapid economic development, large apartments like this were built for skiers. Now the price has dropped and it is relatively cheap. Moreover, this apartment has a particularly big feature. I took a closer look and it actually has a public hot spring attached to it. Direct residents can soak in outdoor and indoor hot springs by themselves. This is really great and very attractive. There is also a sauna , and there is also a gym, which is good. If you can work remotely, it is also good to live here. It has its own hot springs where you can bathe. You can bathe in hot springs every day, and the price is very cheap. It is only 3 million yen. These were built during the period of rapid economic growth in Japan. The economy was so good at that time. Now, the number of people is gradually decreasing. It seems that there are still more over here. I guess the apartment is of the same type. I don’t know what the current occupancy rate is. Maybe some people will come and live here in the winter after buying it because there is a ski resort nearby. And it is convenient for skiing and hot springs. Maybe you don’t usually live here. I checked this apartment. It was built in 1992 , which is not particularly long. It was built in 1992 and it is better now than that just now. The one is a little more expensive, and then it is 1K or more than 20 square meters, which is more than 2 million. It is smaller than that one , and there are only two houses for sale . There are still people entering, so I guess this one is relatively newer than the other one, and the facilities may be better. This one should have been a small bar before. It seems to have been closed for a long, long time. This shop looks like it used to be a shop selling calligraphy, paintings, ceramics and antiques. Then it seems that it has not been open for a long time and has been closed down a long time ago. There are many signs of this kind of shop that are still there, but they should not have been opened for a long time. There are almost no tourists in the whole shopping street. Except for some locals who live here and drive by, I can hardly see anything special. Don’t come here for tourists. Although today is still Saturday , the snow has been really heavy recently. After it snows heavily, it will be particularly dangerous if the sky clears up . There will be such a situation of falling snow. As soon as I walked here, there was a loud bang and a lot of snow fell. If people happen to walk here , it will fall on their heads. It is actually quite dangerous. So after a snowy day, if it is sunny, try not to walk in it. There is a closed ramen shop under the eaves . When I saw the sign on the door that you can take a bath after returning home, there was no one at all. It was very quiet and no one at all. It was written that I am not here now. Go in and call the store. Then the price is 800 per person. The hot spring pool of this store is on the second underground floor. If you go down here, there should be no one here. I think it is quite good. I can monopolize this store. He sells apple juice . My favorite , but it is quite expensive. This small bottle costs 600 yuan . I just took a short break in the hot spring here. The hot spring water here is very hot . I remember the time I soaked in Fukushima before . But it is really comfortable. This should be regarded as a ruined hotel that is particularly famous in the Minami Onsen area . It is said that this hotel was very large and very large at the time because it was constantly expanding and expanding, and then it became a very large local hotel with many banquet halls. From Minami Onsen Street, go a little further north. Origenkan, which is located along the river, is also a place in the Minami Onsen area. The ruins of a large-scale and representative hot spring hotel were
once one of the largest hot spring hotels in the water hot springs. In its prosperous period, it attracted a large number of group guests and family tourists with its spacious hall , multiple banquet halls and large-scale guest rooms. The internal layout of the hotel is complex. After many expansions , it has both large conference rooms and oversized banquet halls for holding various gatherings and events. At that time, it represented the prosperity of the hot spring area. The scene was an important place for local socializing and leisure. However, with the bursting of the bubble economy and the subsequent economic downturn, Origankan was positioned as a relatively high-end hot spring hotel at the time. Its high operating costs gradually became stretched against the backdrop of a sharp decline in guest sources and changes in consumer demand. Around 2011, debts totaling billions of yen were accumulated. The capital chain was broken and continued losses forced the operator to find it difficult to continue. The rise and fall of Origenkan , which eventually led to the bankruptcy and closure of the hotel , reflected the changes in the overall business environment of the Minakami Onsen area, and also revealed the challenges of traditional hot spring hotels in modern market competition. Then, there is a Fujiwara Lake in the upper reaches of the Tone River. There is a hotel by the lake called Fujiwarago Hotel . This is also a very famous ruined hotel here on Minami Onsen. Now it is said that this hotel has always been haunted. Phenomenon , many brave people will come here to take the challenge and continue walking north. There is an artificial lake formed by the construction of the Fujiwara Dam on the upper reaches of the Tone River. Many hot spring hotels have been built around the lake area for the development of sightseeing. In 2004, the problem of hot spring water fraud broke out in the water hot spring area. Although the hotel Fujiwara-go claims to divert water from the neighboring hot springs , in fact it uses ordinary tap water. The water incident seriously damaged the trust of consumers and directly led to a sharp decrease in customer base . Due to continued operating difficulties and the impact of the hot spring disguise scandal, Fujiwara-go announced its closure in 2007 and eventually closed down. Since then, its buildings have gradually been abandoned and become famous local ruins and supernatural places. Many explorers and paranormal enthusiasts reported hearing strange footsteps and seeing blurred figures in hotel rooms. Some photographers even claimed that the camera went out. Various malfunctions have been discovered. The hotel has been widely circulated on TV shows and social media for its deserted scene and various supernatural phenomena. Friends who are interested can come and see it for themselves. Gunma Prefecture Minami Onsen , like many other declining hot spring towns in Japan, is a microcosm of the development of the times. Of course, there are trust crises caused by hot spring fraud, etc., changes in transportation networks, economic downturn caused by the collapse of the bubble economy, etc. But I think the main reason is the change in population structure, the decrease in the number of people, the diversification of people’s lifestyles and entertainment methods, not only in Japan , but also in other countries or regions. Japan’s domestic tourism power is insufficient, and over-development of overseas tourism has become a tourism pollution problem. It is indeed very difficult. Historical memory, natural protection and the revitalization of local economy may be a major issue faced by all parties now.
