Luxury holidays in Maebashi

Between Nagano and Tokyo in central Honshu, Maebashi is a city in Gunma Prefecture with equal urban and natural appeal. Its standout castle and modern art galleries fulfil the former. Enjoy fresh-air fixes beside its river and rose gardens, or with a side of adventure at Mount Akagi, where hiking trails, hot springs and snow-set activities await.
