Natsuyu Valley

Semi Onsen

It has four hot springs, including ``Yume-no-Yu'' and ``Semi-no-Yu'', and ``Bijin no Yu'' is especially popular among women because it leaves their skin smooth after bathing. Irihata Dam is lit up from July to August, and the view from the open-air bath will transport you to a fantastical world. Focusing on fresh eel and river fish dishes, you can enjoy wild vegetable dishes in spring and mushroom dishes in autumn.

Ezuriko Tumulus Group

A group of ancient tombs built from the late 7th century to the early 8th century. There are approximately 120 round tombs with diameters of 6 to 15 meters, and many magatama beads, kiriko beads, warabi-te swords, straight swords, horse harnesses, etc. have been unearthed. Among them, the gold-layered glass beads are valuable excavated items of which there are only a few examples in Japan, leading to speculation that there was trade with the continent.
