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.
