In previous post, I talked halfway about my trip to Gunma.
In this post, I'll talk the rest.
Summary
I visited Gunma for hot spring and enjoyed it.
Next day, we saw dam and columnar joint.
After it, we enjoyed drawing picture experience on the glass.
The room we visit equiped open air bath. Of course, it was hot spring.
We left "川場田園プラザ(Kawaba-Denen-Plaza, it was roadside station), and we went to hot spring inn.(I wrote the post about Kawaba-Denen-Plaza in previous post.)
On the way we stopped at a convenience store to buy some liquor.
The liquor you drink after taking a hot spring is the best.
Seven Eleven is one of the most popular convenience store.
The assortment was normal.
After stopping covenience store, we went to the hot spring inn.
In this trip, we stayed ”千の谷(sen-no-tani means thousands valleys)” in ”猿ヶ京(sarugakyo)”.
Entrance
This is motif of traditional hot spring settlement. Some traditional hot spring resort pump up spa with like this settlement.
Small kiosk was. Local speciality was sold.
We can see dam lake and mountain. Landscape was good.
The room is bed style.
The room equipped open air bath. If you are couple or firmly, private bath might be what you need. Of course, if you are alone monopolies the bath is best.
The landscape was good.
The best way to enjoy hot spring
I will talk about the best way to visit hot spring.
If you visit hotel with hot spring, you should take a bath soon. After refersh wear the Yukata.
Yukata is usually equipment in Japanese hotel. It let the wind through. Your hot body will be cool.
Then you should eat some snack with green tea.
Hotel usually prepare some snack and tea. The snack included 餡子(Anko is traditional sweet cream in Japan that is made of red beens) or cream and the bitterness of the tea made nice combination like donut and coffee.
Hot spring accept you as many time as you like even midnight.
After take hot spring three times, we ate dinner.
In Sen‐no‐tani, dinner is buffet style.
There was sushi. People living in prefecture without sea tend to like sushi. My house is 30 minutes drive to the sea.
After dinner, we took hot spring.
Further, we enjoyed drinking. If you drink you should be care of take a hot spring.
If you want, you can drink in the hot spring. We are free at room with hot spring.
Green onion flavor cheese and Konnyaku was bought in Kawaba‐denen‐plaza.
The hotel offer us free beer and wine. The best!
Take a hot spring with star in midnight is cool.
Traditional inn at Japan usually offer us dried horse mackerel or other fish. In Sen-no-tani, mackerel is offered.
納豆(natto) is fermented soy beens. Despite the smell it is loved in Japan.
Good morning.Of course, we enjoyed hot spring last. Hot spring accept you as many time as you like, I said again.
相俣ダム(Aimata-dam) and columnar joint
We checked out the hotel and went 相俣ダム(Aimata-Dam). The dam can be shown at hotel. In short, the lake in previous photo is Aimata-Dam.
I saw columnar joint. They are formed when the magma cools and hardens.
The dam lake is named 赤谷湖(aka-ya-ko).It means red valley lake.
The board said structure of dam.
相俣ダム (aimata-dam) is so tall.
俳句(Haiku, it is short poem) is written in right card. First character(あ) is emphasized. It seems that all 50 character is emphasized.
We are offered dam card at management office. To collect dam card is little popular. The card talked about features of the dam. The number of dam card is over 600. Japan has many dam.
We went 月夜野びーどろパーク(Tsukiyono-bidro-park, Tsukiyono means moon night plain) after seeing dam.
You can make or paint or assemble some glass product.
We painted on the glass there.
We ate lunch for waiting glass baking.
If you want to visit hot spring, you should search "温泉" that mean hot spring.
You can buy some glass there.
The signboad said factory tour, glass art museum, experience workshop, crystal gallery.
At first, we had a glass painted experience because we had to wait for baked glass.
We chose painting and bought them. We chose \1,300($9.8) one.
Painting glass is difficult. The paint dripped because glass don't absorb paint.
There was a restaurant.
We ate udon and soba.
We visited shop and museum and factory.
In shop, many glasses were sold.
In museum, glasses coming from many country was shown.
In factory, you can have factory tour or making glass experience.
Not-standard products were sold cheaply at factory side shop.
The baggage was filled not-standard products.
It's a find base, but is it out of standard?
I bought dish out of standard. It is ￥800(＄5.9).
They are so cute glass.
Landscape and glass.
We received painted glass. It's nice!
