Hakone at night is a magical place. Once you've enjoyed soaking in a famous hot spring and have had dinner, what next? If you like hot springs, you might want to look for an inn or facility that offers day-trip baths and enjoy touring different hot springs that way. In Hakone, some restaurants and shops have footbaths.
If you're travelling with children or just want to have a good time, you could always visit Hakone's cinemas, arcades, and bowling alleys. You'll also find plenty of spots that retain the retro atmosphere of the Showa era as well as places where you can get close to geisha culture. A memorable trip awaits!
