Hashiriyu The "Hashiriyu" facing the sea of Sagami is a rare side-hole type hot spring in Japan, and is one of the three major ancient springs in Japan. It was discovered about 1,300 years ago, and was named "Hashiriyu" because of the way the hot water gushed out from the mountains and ran down to the coast as if it were flying. As Minamoto no Sanetomo sang, "The early arrival of the hot spring in the south of Izu no Kuniyama is a sign of the gods," before the Meiji era, it was worshipped as a sacred hot spring at Izuyama Shrine. The 5-meter-deep cave still gushes out 170 liters of 70-degree hot water per minute, and the source is a mysterious sight.

【Isehara Flower Information】2024.02.02 Ume Plum Blossom ・ Hyuga Yakushi ... It is beginning to bloom ・ Sports park ... It's the best time to see it ・Maruyama Castle Park... It's the best time to see it Under the cold sky, which is completely different from yesterday, the red Ume plum blossoms are in full bloom. In the precincts of Hyuga Yakushi, beautiful drooping Ume plums are planted, and the appearance side by side with the lanterns is tasteful. There is a Ume plum orchard in the back mountain. Small and pretty white Ume plums are beginning to bloom here and there. I found a Ume plum tree in a sloping place in the sports park. This is also a bright pink red Ume plum. There are cherry blossom trees around it, and it is a spot where you can enjoy flowers throughout spring. Maruyama Castle Park is lined with Ume plum trees that seem to be more than 3 meters tall. The overlapping of the petals is beautiful. Some people enjoyed taking a walk.

【Tomorrow is Setsubun Festival】 It will be held at three shrines in Isehara City. ・ Oyama Afuri Shrine Shimosha ... Only for related parties and those who have applied ・ Sannomiya Hibita Shrine ... Oban maki 10 o'clock ~ ・ 12 o'clock ~ ・ 15 o'clock ~ ・ Isehara Daijingu Shrine ... Mamemaki (bean throwing) 15 o'clock ~ Oni is outside~, good fortune is inside~! It is an event to pray for a healthy and happy life this year and to exorcise evil spirits. There is a saying that if you eat as many times as your age, you will be happy. At three shrines in Isehara City, a grand mamemaki (bean throwing) is held in the precincts. A bean-sowing officer dressed as an event priest lines up on a special stage and scatters lucky beans all at once with shouts. It contains beans and lotteries stored in a baby bag, and local children pick them up with great enthusiasm. At Hibita Shrine, the Oni Yarai Shinto ritual is a highlight. It has become a traditional event. By the way, if you sow beans in the house, won't one of the beans you sowed at the end of the year cleaning come out? For details, please see the website of the Isehara City Tourism Association.
