Introducing the post of the "Higashikawa Tourism Association" COOL JAPAN VIDEOS official social media account! Higashikawa, Hokkaido is a town located in the center of Hokkaido. Natural water from melting snow is used for rice, vegetables, restaurants, and other daily water in the town. The hot springs in Daisetsuzan National Park are also one of the attractions.

What do you think is this one that sits at the entrance of the tourist guide center? The correct answer is the "lignite seam" that is the basis of Mole Onsen. It was created by the accumulation of plants such as reeds that grew naturally on the banks of the Tokachi River in ancient times. Springing out through this lignite seam is the plant-based mall hot spring. The collaboration of humus (humic substances) contained in lignite and alkali gives a smooth and mild spring quality, which is why it is called a beautiful hot spring. Please come 🥰 and enter Mall Onsen, which is registered as a Hokkaido Heritage Site.

Lantern festival in Kinosaki Onsen, Hyogo Prefecture The fireworks here rises every day in summer.

【Moor Hot Spring Firefly Viewing】 Glowworms grown in the water of the Mole hot spring perform a dance of light. In the past, I was able to see fireflies around Tokachigawa Onsen. However, with the modernization of the city, the environment in which fireflies can live has decreased, and it is no longer possible to see fireflies at the end of the 1990 (Heisei 2) summer. The purpose of the revival of the firefly at Tokachigawa Onsen is to bring back the early summer scene that was previously common. One of the major features of the regeneration of fireflies is the use of hot spring water as a water source, and the spring quality of Tokachigawa Onsen is a rare "plant-based mall hot spring" in the world that contains a lot of plant components. Because it contains plant components, it contains a lot of minerals that are essential for the reproduction of diatoms, which are food for snails. This is the first time in Japan that fireflies have been successfully regenerated using 100% hot spring water. Heike fireflies were distributed from Kyushu to Hokkaido, Eastern Siberia and Korea, and inhabited many waterside environments surrounding wetlands and rice paddies. The characteristic of Hokkaido's fireflies is that the interval between their emission tends to be longer than that of fireflies in Honshu.
