Cameras in Japan’s hot spring towns

These cameras show streets, lakes and mountain scenery around Japan’s hot-spring towns. They do not show inside the baths or tell you how long the entrance queue is.

If you want to see the area around your accommodation, check the camera’s street or viewpoint as well as the town name. For hours and bookings, use the venue’s own information.
