Jozankei, Sapporo Dec 2014



If you're the type of person who's more interested with relaxation during a vacay then I highly recommend you try out the natural hot springs that's all over Japan.

In Hokkaido though, Jozankei is one of the popular spa-towns around.





Our free shuttle bus that was included with our day tour. 
Getting To Jozankei: Subway from Sapporo to Makomanai station then bus(30mins) to Mori No Uta(our hotel)





There were so many hotel/resort spas to choose from but I chose Jozankei Tsuruga Mori No Uta as it has the best outdoor hot spring bath that I saw online hehe
They also offered a day trip which included a lunch buffet and a free shuttle bus. Nice!






The interiors were so gorgeous. 
I particularly liked their lobby lounge which had this "forest oasis" theme that guests will surely love 





As I mentioned earlier, Mori No Uta has the best outdoor spring bath ever!
Here's an image from Google coz unfortunately, I couldn't take a picture of it since the only thing I can bring to the hot spring is a towel (You can read more about Japanese Hot Spring etiquette HERE =P )  
~You can see more pics at their website anyway :)

It was really beautiful, the mild snowfall added a more dramatic effect to our bath experience! *lucky*
Also, they use Shiseido for their bath products too ~sosyal!



Then it was time for lunch! yahoo <3




The buffet served a lot of traditional Japanese food yumz!




look at the snow view outside!




my eats ;)







love their dessert! they even had milk soft cream which is quite popular all over Japan.




After lunch, we were just killing time waiting for our 3pm departure back to Makomanai so we just
cam-whored outside the winter wonderland surrounding the hotel haha






Little Red Riding Kaye =P
