Kinosaki Clock & Soba!

The Shinkoro, a traditional Japanese wooden clock tower, is the symbol of the town.
Wish I had a chance and money to stay at some of these beautiful Ryokans! kinosaki - yutouya

Some background from the area - info from www.city.toyooka.lg.jp
Kinosaki Hot Spring has a 1300 year-long history, as one of the famous hot spring resorts in Japan . Kinosaki Hot Spring resort was built on the Otani riverside . There are many people walking down the street wearing Yukata (Japanese traditional informal cotton Kimono) and Geta (Japanese old-style wooden shoes) throughout the year. There are 7 public baths “Sato-no-Yu”, “Jizo-Yu”, “Yanagi-Yu”, “ Ichi-no-Yu”, “Gosyo-no-Yu”, “Mandara-Yu”, and “Ko-no-Yu”. You can enjoy taking baths each individual hot spring.
