Asaba Tower has a history of nearly 350 years
Shuzenji Onsen Street has the local Tokuko-no-yu 📍Izu's oldest hot spring
It is said that Kobo Daishi, also known as Kukai, hammered it out of a stone by a river using a tokko (a Buddhist instrument) about 1,200 years ago.
It is not only the location of Kawabata Yasunari's "Izu Dancing Girl"
It can be said to be the birthplace of the traditional Japanese inn 🏮 "one night and two meals" 🏮
The Asaba-ro, which is often crowned as "Japan's No. 1" in the hot spring hotel industry, has a beautiful Japanese garden and an outdoor Noh stage surrounded by water and greenery. It is also the prototype of the place where a man and a woman meet and make love in "Paradise Lost".
The entrance of Qianyu Tower still retains the architectural style of the Tang Dynasty.
The entrance is antique Tang style door
🖼 Together with the spacious Japanese garden, it makes people feel relaxed and happy
Of course, Japanese Zen is indispensable, every blade of grass and every tree
It presents a quiet and peaceful natural atmosphere.
