Hakusan Ichirino Ski Resort

There aren’t a ton of runs, but it’s really friendly for beginners and intermediate skiers. The slopes aren’t overly steep, so it doesn’t feel stressful. It’s usually not as packed as the super popular resorts either, so the whole vibe is more laid-back. If it’s your first time skiing, this is actually a great place to practice—you won’t be startled by experts flying past you 😂

The biggest perk is being able to hit an onsen right after you’re done. When it’s freezing out, soaking after your legs are toast feels amazing, and the fatigue seriously melts away. The surrounding area also has that quiet Japanese mountain feel—great air, and it’s really pretty for photos.

Taiwanese Pan-Fried Baozi Paopaotei

One bite and you’ll get why so many people line up. The skin is pan-fried to perfection—the bottom is lightly charred but not hard.
You get that little crunch first, then it’s soft inside. Great texture. The pork filling is juicy (not dry at all), and the seasoning is on point—flavorful without being too salty.
Best eaten hot, and it’s even better with chili sauce.
Affordable, satisfying, and totally something I’d buy again. Works as a meal or a snack.

Kumamon Port Yatsushiro

This is a nice spot for families. Kids will probably love all the cute Kumamon figures here.
