梅里苑

梅里苑, Hot spring resort in Mamurogawa, Japan

Description

Bairi-en is a hot spring resort in the mountains of Yamagata with accommodation, thermal baths, and forested grounds. A narrow-gauge railway connects the different areas throughout the property.

History

The resort was created to harness the healing properties of local thermal springs. A locomotive nearly 80 years old still runs on the narrow tracks and speaks to the site's transportation history.

Culture

The site is connected to the origins of Mamurogawa Ondo, a folk song that took shape during the early Showa period. You can sense this musical heritage while exploring the grounds.

Practical

The resort offers Japanese-style rooms and separate cottages, with access to various bathing areas and dining facilities. Day visitors can also use the thermal baths and quiet spaces without staying overnight.

Did you know?

The resort uses an innovative wood chip boiler system that powers the entire complex with sustainable energy. This ecological approach allows operations to run in an environmentally responsible way.
