Jigokudani Monkey Park in Yamanouchi, Japan, is a unique wildlife reserve famous for its population of Japanese macaques, also known as snow monkeys. Nestled in the Joshinetsu Kogen National Park, the area is renowned for its hot springs, or "onsen," which the monkeys frequent during the cold winter months. Visitors can observe these fascinating creatures as they soak in the warm waters, surrounded by the stunning backdrop of snow-covered mountains.
