Hotel Musashiya at Hakone (1)

Was in Hakone, Japan, recently for a short holiday, and I stayed two nights in a ryokan with a 145-year history. The deco was decidedly old-school, but it was cosy, the service staff was friendly and the food was great. I like this type of ryokan because they just feel more authentic to me.

The view from their open air onsen on the top floor (5th storey) was great too, as it faces Lake Ashi.

Final post

I have decided to move my blog to my Tumblr, as I find it much easier to use. I will still keep this blog online, until Google decides to shut down Blogger. Thanks to everyone who has visited this blog in the last five years! I hope you have found something interesting here. Cheers! Zhaowei
