On a tour last week with some lovely guests, one of our guides captured this awesome sight of so many monkeys bathing in the hot springs! 🤩
Jigokudani Yaen-koen or also famously known as the "Snow Monkey Park" is home to hundreds of monkeys who enjoy a good soak when it's cold out. They are the main event on this tour, with so many flocking to see them and their fascinating behavior. 🐒
The park's name in English is translated as "Hell Valley", and it's called this due to the steep cliffs and steam emitting from the springs. It's buried in snow for a third of the year, so you will always find some monkeys warming themselves up here.♨️
With the natural beauty of everything blanketed in snow, now is the perfect time to see them! ❄️
