Oouchijuku and onsen
We went to Oouchijuku which is a bit famous sightseeing place for its remains of inns. This place was used to be prosperous as an inn village more than 100 years ago and they are displaying the traditional houses. It is northern part where it snows a lot in winter so that the traditional house has a enormous thatched roof. I found at least one house still opens as an inn although rest of others were opened as an omiyage shop(tourist shop). I do not like a touristic place so this place was not so impressive but icecream was good, especially a sesame icecream.
Then we went to Futamata onsen, a very local onsen spot where only five inns are there. It was a good quality real onsen and my skin became better at night. I wish I could have more onsen trip! After onsen, we went to a flower park of Tsutuji. It was a nice feeling to be surrounded by many flowers. Flowers smell good which made me feel relaxed.
It was a relaxing nice trip. I believe good air and water at countryside heeled me very much. I am more into a trip for natures nowadays and hope to do a short trip sometime again soon!
