Located in the depths of Hanamaki Onsen, the clear water of the Daikawa River flows down into several streams, like a tama-sudare, over a circular Oiwa stone measuring 8.5 meters high and 30 meters wide. It is said that Iwawa got its name from its shape, which resembles an upside-down rice cooker. There is a monument of Kenji's poetry.
