In this video we’ll show you Shima Onsen (四万温泉), Gunma. Shima onsen is located on the upper stream of the Shima river and is surrounded by mountains. It’s counted as one of the best three Onsen in the Jomo area along with Kusatu (草津) and Ikaho (伊香保). It is famous for the legend of healing forty thousand (四万 means 40,000) illness since the Kamakura period.
Okushima Lake (奥四万湖) is open to the public as a new sightseeing spot, and the Japanese style inns have been renovated while maintaining their ambience of a traditional hot-spring health resort and being careful to preserve important cultural property such as the Buddhist temple Yakushi-do (薬師堂).
Events are actively held, such as the Yudateshinji (湯立神事), an ancient Shinto ritual to pray for the safety of the hot springs. Shima-area enthusiasts are growing in number thanks to this exciting variety of attractions.
