Visit Kinosaki – Kinosaki Must-Visits Pass 

Carefully curated with Kinosaki Onsen's most popular activities at the forefront, the Kinosaki Must-Visits Pass is an all-inclusive pass for Kinosaki's must-see attractions and shops. Pass holders will receive a round-trip ticket on the Kinosaki Onsen Ropeway up to Onsenji Temple (the guardian Buddhist temple of Kinosaki Onsen) with admission to temple grounds and the adjacent Kinosaki Museum of Art.
   Additionally, the pass also provides the opportunity to take a craft break at Kamiya Mingei and learn the art form of mugiwara zaiku (straw craft), a traditional Japanese craft that is only found and experienced in Kinosaki Onsen.
