The Ginzan Tourist Center Taisho Roman Kan serves as a convenient gateway to Ginzan Onsen. Located a 90-minute drive from Yamagata Station and 60 minutes from Yamagata Airport, it's primarily used as a parking and transfer point for visitors heading to the hot spring town, as private vehicles are restricted from entering the immediate Ginzan Onsen area. The center features a shop selling local souvenirs and products, making it a great place to pick up regional specialties. It also functions as a bus terminal for transport to Ginzan Onsen. The building has a retro exterior, complementing the Taisho era atmosphere of the nearby hot spring town.
