💡 Tips for Visitors
Many ryokan and shops accept cash only, so withdraw yen before arriving. The town is easily walkable and best explored in yukata (cotton kimono) provided by your accommodation. Limited English is spoken, but ryokan staff are accustomed to foreign guests; download a translation app for smoother communication at smaller shops and restaurants.
