Stay at a Hot Spring Ryokan and Play at Shiretoko World Water Park"},"content":{"rendered":"

If you want to take your kids to Japan for some water fun in the summer, and also hope for a relaxing hot spring experience for the adults at night, this Hokuriku route is definitely worth adding to your list. Many hotels in the Hokuriku region under the theme of Oedo Onsen Monogatari are offering summer-exclusive accommodation packages that include tickets to Shibamasa World. While staying at a hot spring inn, you can also plan a visit to a popular theme park in Fukui Prefecture for pools, amusement rides, and outdoor activities.<\/p>\n

These types of packages are best suited for family travelers who want to combine \"amusement park fun\" with \"hot spring stays.\" Spend the day burning energy at Sejong World, then return to your hotel for dinner and a hot spring bath in the evening. The pace will be much more relaxed compared to rushing back and forth on the same day. This makes for a smooth itinerary for Hokuriku road trips, summer family vacations, or extending a stay by one night from Kanazawa or the Kaga Onsen area.<\/p>\n\n

What kind of travel style is a travel package with tickets and accommodation to Seapark suitable for?<\/h2>\n

This accommodation plan is divided into two types: one with a \"Super Passport\" and one with a \"2-day Passport\". Upon check-in, you will receive a passport voucher, which can be used when entering Universal Studios Japan. If you plan to visit the park on the day of your stay, the hotel will mail the tickets in advance to ensure a seamless transition to your itinerary.<\/p>\n

Shimao World is a theme park in Sakai City, Fukui Prefecture. Its biggest attraction in the summer is the large pool area, and it also offers amusement rides suitable for families with children. For Taiwanese travelers, this is not a super high-density attraction like those in Tokyo or Osaka. Instead, it's well-suited for those who want to avoid city crowds and plan a trip for a \"Japanese local summer.\"<\/p>\n

Hokuriku Onsen Accommodations<\/h2>\n

The plan is applicable to some Oedo Onsen Monogatari hotels and inns in the Hokuriku region, with options ranging from the vicinity of Ashihara Onsen to Kaga Onsenkyo. If Shibamasa World is your focus, Oedo Onsen Monogatari Awara and Oedo Onsen Monogatari Premium Seiunkaku, both about a 7-10 minute drive away, are the most convenient. If you prefer a more onsen town atmosphere, you can choose accommodations around Yamanaka, Yamashiro, or Kaga, which are about a 35-50 minute drive away.<\/p>\n

Recommended Itinerary for Taiwanese Travelers<\/h2>\n

If you are driving yourself, we recommend scheduling the Hokuriku Wonderland to coincide with your check-in or check-out day. On the first day, depart from Kanazawa, Komatsu Airport, or Fukui city, enjoy the theme park in the afternoon, and return to your hotel for dinner in the evening. The next day, you can visit Tojinbo, Echizen Matsushima Aquarium, or explore the areas around Kaga Onsen Village. If you opt for the 2-day passport, you can split the pool and amusement park attractions over two days, making it less likely for your children to get exhausted and overwhelmed.<\/p>\n

Hokuriku has strong sunshine in the summer. For a day at the pool, it's recommended to prepare sunscreen, a change of clothes, and a waterproof bag. Also, allow time to return to the inn for a shower and dinner. The biggest fear for family trips is an over-packed itinerary. The advantage of this plan is that it bundles accommodation, meals, and tickets, reducing the stress of finding tickets and restaurants on the spot.<\/p>\n
