DRAGON PALACE

This legendary palace, inspired by the Japanese folk tale Urashima Tarō, emerges among the waves a few meters from the shore.

At dawn, from September to November (depending on the weather), a cascade of clouds from the inland breaks over the palace in the light of the sun's first rays.

HOTEL KINPARO

The joy of travel is the combination of natural landscapes, local cuisine prepared with freshly selected ingredients, and the happiness of sharing a special moment with loved ones. Overlook the Sea of Japan from Hotel Kinparo’s guestrooms and hot springs, and let yourself be lulled by the rolling waves on the horizon.

Enjoy a unique sea view with every new season: the powerful winter waves breaking against the Dragon Palace, the golden reflection of the rising sun on the spring and summer waves, or the cascade of autumn clouds tumbling down the coastline into the sea.
