Boasting the largest area for a "pond" in Japan (technically a pond, but effectively a lake), peaceful waterside scenery spreads for about 18 km around. The five islands floating in the pond and the golden brilliance of the water at sunset are extremely beautiful, making it ideal for strolls and cycling. It is also known for a rare traditional fishing method called "Ishigama fishing" in winter. In spring, thousands of cherry trees bloom in full in the surrounding parks, cherished as a place of relaxation for locals. It is a precious place where you can feel the calm and rich waterside life of Japan, not over-touristified.

Famed as a hot spring for beautiful skin, its soft, free-flowing water from the source gently heals the mind and body. The hot spring town has an somehow nostalgic Showa-retro atmosphere, and in early summer, mystical sights of fireflies dancing in the nearby river can be seen. Interactions with locals at public baths and dishes focusing on local production for local consumption are also charms. A hidden gem loved by travelers who want...
