Oyama Afuri-jinja Shrine Shimosha
A certain holiday in November. Nishi-san and Kita-san have come up with the idea of climbing. The mountain they came to climb is Oyama, a famous mountain in the Tanzawa Mountains. Even if saying "climbing", it is an easy course with using a cable car. The end point of the cable car is Afuri-jinja Shrine Shimosha on the mountainside. Nishi-san and Kita-san have begun to climb toward the summit with a light feeling, but ...
Boy, it's steeper than I thought ... and rocks are so rough that it's hard to walk ...
Oh, here is Fujimidai .... It means, I can see Mt.Fuji ... Wow! Look at!
Mt.Fuji seen from Fujimidai at Oyama
Oh, really! It's different from Mt.Fuji seen from Tokyo.
Yeah, the weather is good and so beautiful!
Looking at this Mt.Fuji, the fatigue so far will blow away.
In fact, the fatigue doesn't blow away with just looking at Mt.Fuji. Then the duo lacked of exercise are so exhausted and finally arrive at the summit. They bought grilled rice balls and canned beers at a stand and finally took a break.
♨
The Oyama Cable Car climbs from the bottom of Oyama
to Afuri-jinja Shrine Shimosha in about 6 minutes.
However, you may have to wait for an hour or more just to get on when the traffic is crowded.
View from Oyama summit
Wow! What a spectacular view!
Yeah, Exactly! That's Sagami Bay, and the other side is Miura Peninsula ... Oh, it looks like this!
It's a panoramic view of the Kanto Plain, you know.
I got the reason why Oyama is popular.
Enjoy the scenery from the summit of Oyama, then they go down the moutain. As the sun began to fall, the air temperature suddenly dropped. A hot spring is nice in such a case. Nishi-san and Kita-san's next destination is Tsurumaki Onsen Kobonosatoyu.
Exterior
Oh, here. We just arrived in 2 minutes from the station. There is a hot spring near such a station.
Well, looks like still new. Not like public, in a good way.
The two go to the bathing room at once.
♨ There is a restaurant at the top of the mountain, but it seems that sometimes it's not open. Even if it's open, many food will be sold out when the late time.
Indoor bath (in Satoyu)
Hey, it's bigger than I thought. Many customers in here, but no feeling too crowded.
First, Nishi-san enters the bathtub.
Good it is. This water is transparent, but like a Kuroyu in Tokyo.
Right? Then, ... Oh! It's hot! This water is a little hot, isn't it?
Certainly, feels hot right after entering the tub. But the temperature itself isn't so hot. That's you're chilled by climbing.
Got it ... Oyama suddenly became cold.
Hot water spout of indoor bath (in Satoyu)
Apart from the temperature, this water warms up well. In short, it's perfect for after climbing.
I see. Then, I want the cable car to be extended to here.
Oh, that's good.
Open-air bath (in Satoyu)
Next, go to the open-air bath.
Aside from the view, it's more spacious than I thought. The water is not too hot , so good for relaxing.
Gee, but it smells of chlorine ...
That is, what I said at Echigo-yuzawa. I mean, when you come back from the mountain, that smell is better.
Kobonosatoyu has "Yamayu" and "Satoyu". "Yamayu" bath use stones and inspired by a mountain hut in Tanzawa. "Satoyu" bath use woods of hinoki and inspired by a countryside in Hadano. These change daily for men's and women's.
Oh, "the theory chlorine smell is good when backing from mountains", isn't it?
Yes, that's right. It has a Cleanliness, and feels like back in civilized society, you know. It's the smell of safe and relax.
Umm ... That may be true, but ...
It's true. Absolutely, true.
In this way, at Tsurumaki Onsen, Nishi-san and Kita-san unwinded the comfortable fatigue from climbing Oyama. A day in late autumn became the day that the lack of daily exercise was only slightly resolved.
(November 2013)
♨ "At Echigo-yuzawa" is that when Nishi-san and Kita-san visited to "Komakonoyu" in Echigo-yuzawa Onsen.
Impression & rating
Hot water that warms up well. The indoor bath is recommended because the smell of chlorine is a concern in the open-air bath.
