Japan Hot Spring Resort With Interior That Looks Like Demon Slayer "Infinity Castle"

If you are a big fan of demon slayer, you would have definitely seen Muzan Kibutsuji’s "Infinity Castle" in the demon-slayer series.

A hot spring resort in Japan, Ashinomaki Onsen Ookawaso, located in Aizuwakamatsu of Fukushima Prefecture has an interior that looks similar to the “Infinity Castle”. As you enter the lobby, get greeted by a uniquely shaped staircase that resembles a scene from the demon-slayer series where Muzan Kibutsuji, the main antagonist of the Demon Slayer, appears in a complex castle (also known as the "Infinity Castle") designed with labyrinth-like staircases and walls.

Next, you would notice a big striking red platform, also known as the "floating stage", where shamisen (3-stringed traditional Japanese instrument) performances would be held between 4PM and 6PM daily. The shamisen performance resembles a scene from the series where Muzan’s aide, a female demon, controls the space by playing the biwa (traditional Japanese lute) in the "Infinity Castle".
