A general term for a group of hot springs located in the upper reaches of the Kinugawa River, northwest of Nikko City, Tochigi Prefecture. Generally, it consists of Meotobuchi, Hachcho-no-yu, Kani-yu, Nikkoza Onsen, and Teshirozawa Onsen, which are located upstream from Kawamata Onsen, and each hot spring has only one inn. Meotobuchi Onsen is accessible by bus from Kinugawa Onsen Station on the Tobu Railway, but other hot springs are a walk away, so there are few visitors. Each hot spring has an open-air bath surrounded by forest, giving it a rustic hot spring atmosphere. The spring types include simple hot springs, sulfur springs, and chloride springs. Yuzawa Fountain Tower is a nationally designated natural monument. [Akihisa Sakurai] [References] | | | |Source: Shogakukan Encyclopedia Nipponica About Encyclopedia Nipponica Information | Legend |
栃木県日光市(にっこうし)の北西部、鬼怒川最上流部にある温泉群の総称。一般に川俣温泉(かわまたおんせん)より上流の、女夫淵(めおとぶち)、八丁ノ湯(はっちょうのゆ)、加仁湯(かにゆ)、日光沢温泉、手白沢温泉(てしろざわおんせん)からなり、各温泉は1軒ずつの宿があるのみである。女夫淵温泉までは東武鉄道鬼怒川温泉駅からバスの便があるが、それ以外はここより徒歩になるため客は少なく、森に囲まれた野天風呂(ぶろ)がいずれにもあるなど、ひなびた温泉情緒が楽しめる。泉質は単純温泉と硫黄(いおう)泉、塩化物泉など。湯沢噴泉塔は国指定天然記念物。 [櫻井明久] [参照項目] | | | |出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
