  • Aizu Tajima no Kinokoya
    Shopping
    Fukushima Minamiaizu-gun Minamiaizumachi Seki
    This shop manufactures and sells processed foods made with foraged ingredients such as edible wild vegetables and mushrooms as well as a number of regional dishes of the Aizu region. The shop makes its products in the old-fashioned way, sparing no effort in order to carefully preserve the inherent flavors of the ingredients. We recommend their Yamaudo Abura-itame, which consists of fried and seasoned mountain asparagus, a wild plant known for its unique fragrance and slight bitterness. We also recommend their Fukinoto Miso, which consists of young giant butterbur shoots blended with Aizu country-style miso paste.

    This soba restaurant is located at the entrance to the Maezawa Magariya Village. The restaurant uses buckwheat flour produced by Aizu Kogen Tateiwa Nosan, its operating company. Everything from growing, drying, blending, and stone grinding the buckwheat to making the soba noodles is done in-house. The sauces the soba is served with are made by hand as well. Their namasoba (fresh soba noodles) made with 100% buckwheat flour is popular for its springiness and great throat feel. The restaurant only operates during the period that the Maezawa Magariya Village is open to visitors.

    "This tourist information center is located next to Aizu Kogen Ozeguchi station. Visitors can get information on sightseeing in Minamiaizu, enjoy a meal, and even purchase the local produce and souvenirs. The most popular item at the attached restaurant, Koiji Chaya, is its ""Sanshu Gattaimen,"" which features ramen, soba, and udon noodles served together in a large bowl. Many people come here just for this dish. It contains one and a half servings worth of noodles, so make sure you have a large appetite before you give it a try."

    This hot spring facility features two private bathhouses, the Hotaru no Yu and the Yubata no Yu. The sodium chloride cold mineral springs were first discovered in a marshland during the Meiji period.

It is possible to rent out either of the bathhouses regardless of whether you are staying at one of the local inns, although a reservation is required.

    This public bath located in the center of the villageis called Kobo no Yu.

  • Yunohana Onsen Tenjin no Yu
    Accommodations / Hot Spring
    Fukushima Minamiaizu-gun Minamiaizumachi Yunohana 382
    This mixed-gender public bathhouse is fed with extra hot spring water from a source spring called Seiryu no Yu. The alkaline simple springs were named Tenjin no Yu becauseTenjin, the patron deity of Academics, Scholarship, and Learning, had been worshiped nearby. The tiny shack of the bathhouse features nothing more than two baths and a dressing space. However, its open windows overlook the riverbed, giving it a liberating sense of openness.

    Accommodations / Hot Spring
    Fukushima Minamiaizu-gun Minamiaizumachi Yunohana 528
    "This mixed-gender public bathhouse is located on the bank of the Yunomata River. It features baths fed with rather hot spring water from an alkaline simple spring pulling in from the riverbed. The shack-like bathhouse humorously appears to be clinging to a boulder that sits on the riverbank. The name, which means ""stone bath,"" stems from the fact that the original bathtub was carved out of a large natural boulder."

    Fukushima Minamiaizu-gun Hinoematamura
    This marshland on the eastern bank of Lake Ozenuma is known for its large colony of nikkokisuge (Hemerocallis esculenta) that bloom in the summer. The density of the colony is the highest in Oze. In good years, the nikkokisuge looks like a yellow carpet that covers the entire marshland. The nikkokisuge and many other flowers bloom around one to two weeks later than those in Ozegahara Marsh due to the higher altitude.

In the fall, the marshland's grasses become a mosaic of reds and yellows. The Hirosawa Tashiro marshland, which is located below the Kumasawa Tashiro marshland, is a popular destination for fall hiking. There, hikers can enjoy the fall foliage of plants including azaleas and hirohatsuri-bana (Euonymus macropterus).
