志賀高原の横手山スキー場から帰る際にあったので寄ってみた。 この周辺は硫黄の温泉エリアで、ほたる温泉というのがあって、そこの源泉になっている。と言ってニュージーランド・ロトルアの大噴泉みたくなっているか?といわれれば、ただ煙(水蒸気)が出ているだけと、その手前に温泉看板があるぐらい。 特に見るモノもない。駐車スペースが2台分がなんとかあるぐらい。

- Nagano Iiyama-shi Minamimachi 22-17
- "This Buddhist temple's history stretches back to the Kamakura period; after repeated changes to its name, denomination, and location, it came to settle in its current location in 1604. The temple served as the model for the Rengeji Temple appearing in Toson Shimazaki's novel ""The Broken Commandment,"" and a monument on the grounds is inscribed with the book's first chapter. The temple complex was damaged during the Great Fire of Iiyama and only the original Rokkakudo hall stands today."

Nagano Areas
Nagano prefecture is an exciting mix of mountains, hot spring monkeys, and preserved Edo history. At the heart of the Japanese Alps, Nagano is one of the country’s most popular destinations, whether in winter for its snow sports and the much-loved Jigokudani Monkey Park or in the warmer months for discovering the undulating hills on foot. For fantastic Edo architecture, head to the Kiso Valley for a 60-kilometer stretch of quaint wooden buildings that marked the Nakasendo route 200 years ago.
