we climbed 365 stone steps, view from top is so beautiful. if you are initial D fans is recommended to go there to find the initial d scene. plenty of onsen here, 2 days 1 night trip is enough to cover the whole place.

A place if you need a great workout ! 365 steps to hike up but was too quiet to continue on my own to see the Onsen. So just visited the shrine n wander around the shops n lanes… shops are quaint n there are the 12 Chinese horoscopes plates embedded along the footpath. I took a break soaking my feet in the public foot bath

This is a cute stairway lined with shops of all kinds and providing incredible views of the surrounding mountains. There are 365 stairs to climb up, and lots of small details to discover along the way. Try not to get too caught up in taking photos, and use the opportunity to set your eyes on a distant horizon. Breathe deep.

This quaint onsen town was extremely pleasant and enjoyable. There were plenty of souvenir stores, and snack stores selling sweets and pastries. Some cafes also serve lunch and they are all just along the stone steps leading up. You can take the JR express bus from Shinjuku, or a local bus from Maebashie.

An interesting village where these stone steps were originally built to promote the area during the Edo period. Now a popular hot spring destination, it’s filled with shops and restaurants offering various local specialties. The steps also provide a lovely view over the village.

Entire area is really small, it can be done in 15-20 minutes. The only initial D thing is the drain cover at the bottom of the stairs & a poster higher up the stairs. I would not think it’s worth a day trip here on public transport but if you’re staying at the onsens it’s a really nice excursion.

Cool place to visit. Easy on tourists. Please support the businesses and buy delicious snacks! So many restaurants and cafes around. Please try it

Small local shrine at the top of the famous ‘365’ steps. Worth the visit if you’re in the area. There are many wonderful smaller details to look out for around the shrine and it has a good view of the town. It is also the start of a walk up the mountain.

The temple was rather OK, but what steal the show is the surrounding shops and village that has a lot of character and vibe. Some buildings are old and shut down, an old memory of the great economy times of the era. I felt nostalgic and trapped in time. It was great that I stopped over to see this place.

2023.04.07 A very small but nice shrine and even buying omori were self service.

Worth all the cold winds and the steps 👍🏼

Very serene small shrine at the top of the steps of Ikaho Onsen. It is worth a visit, there were nice sakura trees blooming when I was here. As it is not a peak time, there is minimal crowd, so it makes for a nice experience.

On top of the 365 steps really peaceful area in the morning shrine area was pretty

I went to Ikaho Shrine for the first time. It is in the place where I climbed the stone stairway. Scenery is splendid.

This graceful Japanese-style bridge in Ikaho is quite beautiful, though smaller than Nikko’s Shinkyo Bridge. It has a classic, refined aesthetic that captures traditional Japanese architecture beautifully and makes for great photography.

I read the comments before coming and it really is a very small bridge. It looks crowded only because it’s such a small area. Very beautiful in autumn but maybe not worth coming just for this.

Stunning autumn folliage. We visited in early November evening after 5:30pm. Many people were enjoying the scenery during this time. The bridge is a 5-10mins stroll from the shrine on top of the Ikaho stone steps. Snacks and hot beverages are available near the bridge.

Ikaho's vermillion Kajika Bridge is a must-visit place in Autumn season in Gunma. This picturesque and stunning view is a perfect background for family portraits during autumn foliage. We went up here by car and there is a free parking space near the bridge. You need to be there before 10am because many cars lined up for this parking space. Some people chose to park on the municipal parking near Idaho stone steps starting point. But we’ve decided to go here first so it is not too crowded. Surprisingly, there’s a lot of people before 10am but we managed to take beautiful pictures. There is a restroom and a small coffee stall near the bridge. You can enjoy the colorful leaves up here. We went down taking the local road for cars and went directly to the starting point of Idaho stone steps. After reaching 365 steps, we walked back to Kajika bridge and went back to our car.

It was mid April when I came and so there is minimal crowd for this very popular bridge in autumn. One usually hike up from the stone steps to get here so recommend to also do the open air onsen if you come here post a hike! If you are only here for the IG post, the bridge is quite small so it won't be easy to picture when there is a crowd.

Having said to be one of the areas of inspiration for Hayao Miyazaki's "Spirited Away" with Kajika Bridge being a reference point for the main red bridge depicted in the movie, you can clearly see why when visiting. Although not quite as picturesque as visiting in mid-Autumn, December/Jan is still an excellent time to visit Ikaho Onsen and Kajika Bridge. Well worth the trip up and also combining a visit to the local Onsen.

Photos spot, good time for Autumn 🍂

Turning wheels and ring the Bell is thing available at this 16th Kannon temple. Many believers came to pray and visiting. Large parking and many high quality udon shops near by.

This place is magical! Drove past the bend and saw stairs lighting up the temple. A super unexpected stop. Looks and feels like a video game, super zen

The principal image of Mizusawa Kannon (Mizusawa-dera) is the Kannon Bodhisattva who is believed to have saved Princess Ikaho, the third daughter of the local governor, from difficult situations many times. It has a history of over 1300 years, and it is said that offering incense will bring good luck in health, and ringing the bell will bring good fortune in terms of money😊😊

This place is freakin awesome! So many cool aspects of traditional Japanese culture here. And tons of beautiful nature, including a mountain hike behind the temples and shrine that go through a very serene forest. A word to the wise, though: If you are going to ride a bike up there, you can do it but it's definitely a challenge. About 6 km up often steep hills.

Beautiful ancient temple, come here, calm down and breathe the fresh air

To be honest, I can't really distinguish between a shrine and a temple, but it's a very eye-catching and beautiful architecture.

Beautiful old shrine, if you are lucky there is a very nice local markets on Saturdays

We found ourselves facing a shortage of manpower, which made things a bit challenging. Navigating the area was particularly tricky for us as foreigners.

This a great petting farm to visit with the kids on a nice day. It can get expensive though with the fee to pet each animal at multiple stations though. My kids enjoyed it, so I guess the cost is irrelevant. Oh avoid the Game Center area, because once the kids gravitate towards that well, they will just want to stay there. I just tried to redirect their attention the best I could lol

Entrance tickets is ¥1500 (adult). There's vege for the animals for sale in the farm at ¥400/cup. Rabbit and guinea pig petting at ¥700/10mins. Quite pricey, and there wasn't much animals. Mostly sheeps and rabbits. Animals are quite well-managed tho! Clean!

Good place for kids but the opening hours are too short while the events and shows schedule are not frequent. In-door grill of beef is also good lunch. Worth to buy the combo.

It is not a very cheap place to visit, but I suppose it would be a fun way to spend time together, particularly if you have children. Parking is free but in addition to the entrance fee, every single attraction costs extra money. So if you have the time to visit every attraction, it may be worth it to invest in the all access pass. The ice cream and the moumou is deliciousness that is a must-have at this park. Walking the goats around is also pretty fun.

Came here on a kindergarten field trip. It was cute and my sons enjoyed it, but everything inside costs extra money - even the petting areas

Very beautiful in fall season, we had a wonderful day, you can enjoy a barbecue offer also

Clean with big bathrooms. The restaurant is reasonably priced and offers typical Japanese fare like soba and udon, konyaku, Motsu tonkatsi etc. Friend wasn't happy with the soba but the rest of our group was satisfied.

Nice place but crowded on a holiday weekend.

Rest stop and grocery store/gift shop for Gunma prefecture goods and produce. No English spoken but there is an indoor tourist information center nextdoor with many pamphlets about local sights and attractions.

Nice 😊

Nice place. Great market. Good restaurant.

(Translated by Google) As you'd expect from Gunma, there's a wide variety of konjac! I saw something unusual called konjac karaage, so I bought some. It was konjac that had been heavily seasoned, coated in karaage flour, and then deep-fried. It was quite delicious! There was also a wide variety of local vegetables, and they were cheap (lol) (Original) さすが群馬、こんにゃくの種類が豊富です！ こんにゃくから揚げという、珍しい物があったので購入してみました。 しっかり濃いめの下味を付けたこんにゃくに唐揚げ粉をまぶして揚げたものでした。 なかなか美味しかったです！ 地元の野菜も豊富で安かったですよ(笑)

(Translated by Google) This was my first time visiting. They had a wide selection of vegetables and fruits for sale. I came here to buy souvenirs and a meal. It was the last day of a three-day weekend, so it was busy. I chose the sesame miso ramen, which looked like a quick meal. It looked like a regular ramen from a chain restaurant, so I didn't have high expectations, but after a few bites, the sesame flavor was very strong, the soup was piping hot, and there was a generous amount of noodles, making it a satisfying ramen. (Original) 初めて訪問しました。 野菜と果物が豊富に販売 されていました。 お土産と食事の為に来店 しました。 三連休の最終日ともあり、 混雑しておりました。 すぐ食べられそうな、 胡麻味噌ラーメンを選択、 見た目、チェーン店の普通の ラーメンに見え期待はせず、 一口、二口食べると胡麻の 風味化とても良く、スープ も、熱々で麺量が多く、 食べ応えあるラーメンでした。

Interesting history from when Hawaii was an independent country. Great views from the second floor. Best of all, completely free!

(Translated by Google) The envoy's villa from the time of the Kingdom of Hawaii, before Hawaii became part of the United States, is open to the public free of charge. There is a charge for the museum. Also, if you take a photo of the stone steps street from this site, you will be able to take a picture of a stone steps street that looks quite like it😊 (Original) ハワイが、米国の一部になる前の｢ハワイ王国｣の時代の公使別邸が、無料で公開されています。資料館は有料ですが。また、この敷地から石段街を撮影すると結構、それらしい石段街が撮影出来ます😊

(Translated by Google) This is the ambassador's villa from when Hawaii was an independent country. It is located halfway up the Ikaho Stone Steps and can be visited for free. The well-maintained courtyard and pond were lovely. (Original) ハワイが独立国だった頃の大使の別邸。伊香保石段街の中腹にあり、無料見学できます。綺麗に手入れされた中庭や池が素敵でした。

(Translated by Google) It is located near the entrance to Ikaho Onsen's Stone Steps Street. This is part of the building that was used as a summer home by Robert W. Alwin, the Kingdom of Hawaii's envoy to Japan when the US state of Hawaii was an independent country, and is one of the few buildings from the Kingdom of Hawaii that still remains in Japan. You can visit the annex for free. There is a bus stop nearby for buses to Shibukawa, Takasaki, and Tokyo, so if you have to wait for your bus, it might be worth stopping by for a bit. (Original) 伊香保温泉の石段街の入口近くにあります。 ここは、アメリカ合衆国ハワイ州が独立国だった当時の駐日ハワイ王国弁理公使ロバート・W・アルウィン氏が夏に別荘として使用していた建物の一部で、日本に現存するハワイ王国の数少ない建物のひとつです。 別館は無料で見学することができます。 近くに、渋川、高崎や東京行きのバス乗り場があるのでバスの待ち時間があれば少し立ち寄ってみてもいいかもしれません。

(Translated by Google) This building was used as a villa by the Hawaiian ambassador to Japan when Hawaii was an independent country. The exterior and interior are very Japanese-style architecture. (lol) You can visit for free. (Original) ハワイが独立国だった当時の駐日公使が別荘として使用していたハワイ王国の建物。 外観も内装もとっても和風な建築です。(笑) 無料で見学できます。

(Translated by Google) It's located halfway up the stone steps. The building has an old-fashioned feel to it. (Original) 石段の途中にあります。 古民家って感じの建物です。

(Translated by Google) The former residence of the Hawaiian Kingdom's envoy has been restored and is open to the public. There is also an exhibition hall that explains its history. You can see everything in about 30 minutes, including the guide video. Admission to the exhibition hall is 200 yen, cash only. (Original) ハワイ王国公使の旧邸が復旧公開されている。その歴史などの展示館も併設されている。案内動画を含めて、ざっと見て30分くらいで見れる。展示館の入館料は200円で現金オンリー。

(Translated by Google) This lovely Western-style building is the hope of Ikaho's tourist attractions, with many of Takehisa Yumeji's works on display. The exterior and garden of the main building, Kurofunekan, are beautifully exciting, and the interior is furnished with many antique pieces of furniture, creating a very elegant atmosphere and a high level of taste. In the hall on the first floor of Kurofunekan, live performances of rare music boxes and pianos are held every hour, creating a dreamlike, extraordinary experience. The customer service attitude of the staff in the building was also particularly excellent. (Original) 素敵な洋館の中に竹久夢二の作品が多数展示されている伊香保の観光地のホープ。 本館の黒船館の外観、庭園も大変素晴らしく心躍るのに加え内装も多数のアンティークの家具で設えられとても高貴な雰囲気の空間になっており高いセンスを感じた。 黒船館一階のホールでは貴重なオルゴールやピアノの実演奏会が各時間開催されており、夢のような非日常の時間が流れる。 館内スタッフの方の接客態度も特筆して大変素晴らしかった。

(Translated by Google) The exhibits are wonderful, of course, but the moss-covered buildings and gardens are also wonderful. Also, the staff are very polite. If you are coming by car, be careful when driving, as you will have to enter from the prefectural road and go through a narrow, steep slope. (Original) 展示されてる作品はもちろん、こちらの建物や庭園の苔生した感じも素晴らしい。それとスタッフの方々の対応が丁寧なこともいいです。 車で行く際は、県道から入ると狭い急坂を通りますので走行注意です。

(Translated by Google) September 2025 I didn't know much about Takehisa Yumeji, but his work really shows his talent. The popular-looking letter text was also impressive. The gift shop is well-stocked. I also listened to a music box demonstration, but the explanation was a bit long and tedious... (Original) 2025.09 竹久夢二のことはあまり知りませんでしたが、作品を見ているととても才能を感じます。 モテそうな手紙文面も印象的。 売店が充実してます。 オルゴールの実演も聴きましたが、説明がちとくどくて長いかな。。。

(Translated by Google) I was able to see many of Yumeji's works in a tranquil setting. I wish the leaves had been a little more autumnal. (Original) 静粛の佇まいで夢二さんの作品をたくさん観ることが出来ました。もう少し紅葉が進んでいたら良かったと思いました。

(Translated by Google) I was deeply moved. The music boxes, piano performance, and exhibits were all wonderful and enriched my soul. (Original) 感動しました。オルゴールや、ピアノ演奏も、展示も、素晴らしくて、心が豊かになりました。

(Translated by Google) I didn't know much about Takehisa Yumeji, other than his paintings, but I was so impressed by the exhibits, gardens, and the lighting and interior of the building, that before I knew it, two hours had passed. The sounds of the antique piano and music box were also incredibly soothing. This has become one of my favorite places. Thank you very much. (Original) 竹久夢二さんは絵を知っている程度であまり知識はありませんでしたが 展示物はもちろん、庭園や建物内の照明やインテリアも素晴らしく、気づいたら2時間ほど経っていました。 アンティークのピアノやオルゴールの音色も最高に癒されました。 とてもお気に入りの場所になりました。ありがとうございました。

(Translated by Google) I visited this place about a year ago and have always wanted to revisit it. This time, it wasn't during the winter, so I was able to visit the Children's Art Museum as well. (Apparently, Hyde also visited about three years ago.) I love the Baccarat chandelier in the main building (?) - it's very impressive. The last time I visited, there was a stove on, and the scent of the stove perfectly matched the atmosphere inside, making it a very memorable and great experience, so I wanted to come back again. The paintings by Takehisa Yumeji and the Taisho Romantic atmosphere are both wonderful, so I definitely recommend you go. I'd like to visit in the summer someday to see Kurofune-ya. (Original) 以前一年前ほどに伺い、ずっと再訪したかった場所です。 今回は冬季期間中ではなかったので、子ども絵の館も入れました。 （hydeさんも3年ほど前に来たことがあるらしいです） 本館（？）の中にあるバカラのシャンデリアがとても印象的で好きです。 前回伺った際はストーブが付いていて、中の空気感雰囲気とストーブの香りがマッチしてとても印象的でいい経験をできたので、また伺いたくて来ました。 竹久夢二さんの絵も、大正ロマンの空気感も、とても素敵なところですので、ぜひ行ってみてください。 いつか、黒船屋を見に夏にも伺いたいです。

Amazing environment, reasonable price. I was very glad to see some artworks that I used to see a lot in the former Hara Museum in Tokyo, including Yoshitomo Nara’s little room. The cafe was good too, with ice cream made from the milk of the next door farm.

Quite remote but make it a quiet and peaceful place to visit. Some outdoor exhibits for snapshots. A small cafe selling lovely dessert.

Stunning! They could have more exhibitions tho. Price is 1100, no reservation required. I went during Golden Week and it’s not crowded. However, they meed to have better postcards option.

Interesting museum on beautiful grounds. Be warned that the price (1100yen) is quite expensive for the amount of art you'll get to see, and indoor photos aren't allowed either. The art that's there is amazing - I was shocked to have the museum to myself while seeing a Warhol, Lichtenstein, and a Kusama room! But for having such a spacious building, there should really be a couple more exhibits at least.

Branch of the Hara Museum in Tokyo, both focusing on contemporary art. The buildings are unassuming and blend nicely into the stunning location with views of Mout Akagi. Be aware that you have to pay at the gate just to even enter the grounds and make sure to keep your ticket with you. The art tends towards the conceptual, so perhaps not to everybody's taste, but with four modestly sized galleries, it's easy to spend just an hour or so here on your way to somewhere else or during bad weather. Great photo opportunities on the grounds and the cafe is good too!

Interesting art museum in the Shibukawa area of Gunma.

There are no much too see for 1800 yen

It was good time spent with my children and they get good memories. Tickets price little bit higher than other park. It was 7000¥ for 2 adults and 2 children 😁

Beautiful Amusement park with a great mountain view.

Preventive measures for corona virus are implemented. Body temperature check at the gate and contact details logged before entering the park. The staff were friendly and rubbing alcohol are available everywhere. The Go-kart and roller coaster were fun and can be enjoyed by adults. The Ferris wheel is also nice showing the views of the nearby cities. One complain only is the ice park. It’s too short 😂

Loved it on a quiet summer weekday. It was the opposite of a stereotypical Disneyland-type experience. No crowds, all rides available without waiting more than a minute or two. All rides tailored to young children - the sweet spot is probably 4-5, with the bizarre exception of a haunted house. Lots of nice simple rides, plus physical rides too. The large jumping castle and the inflatable slide were highlights, as were the go-carts and the collection of various bicycle contraptions. It has some quite strange attractions too. For example, the "ice adventure" is a cool-room with stuffed-animal displays, at -30 degrees Celsius. Fun and weird for the 20 seconds it takes to pass through. Without crowds, it was possible to take time and enjoy rides without the crazed throngs of children. The cafe is also pretty relaxed and there is no hard-sell for sugary sweets etc. Classic low-budget fun.

Great for toddlers. All rides are available but adults need to ride with them. Purchase 1 day pass - no need to pay per ride. There's a go-cart at the very back of the park, and it is highly recommended. Not crowded on Saturday when I went.

Beautiful place❤️

Very good 👍😂🌺

(Translated by Google) It is a ropeway that not many locals have ever ridden. It was my first time riding one. Super fun. Super fun. Even if you go to the top, there is only an observation deck and some play equipment. Thanks to that, it's a bit of a hidden gem. (Original) 地元でもあまり乗った事ある人はいないというロープウェイ。 初めて乗りました。 超楽しい。超楽しい。 頂上行っても展望台と少々の遊具しかありません。 お陰でちょっとした穴場です。

(Translated by Google) Climb the ropeway to the observation deck and skating rink where you can get a panoramic view of the scenery from Ikaho. It has a great view and is one of the places I'm glad I went to. (Original) ロープウェイを登ると伊香保からの景色が一望できる展望台やスケートリンク。 見晴らしがよく、行ってよかった場所の一つです。

(Translated by Google) Ikaho Ropeway Although the distance is short, the ropeway is always fun. It's a rather small box, but I wonder if it can still accommodate about 15 people. There was a collaboration with an anime, and they were speaking during announcements during the flight. The observation deck (Tokimeki Deck) at the top of the mountain didn't have very high ratings on Google Maps, but it was surprisingly good. It would have been more beautiful if it wasn't so hazy. (Original) 伊香保ロープウェイ 短い距離ですが、ロープウェイはいつも楽しい。 ちょっと小型の箱ですが、それでも15人位は乗れるのかな。 なんかアニメとコラボしてて運行中もアナウンスで喋ってました。 山頂の見晴台(トキメキデッキ)はGoogle Mapでそんなに評価高くなかったですが、意外と良かった。 霞んでなかったらもっとキレイだっただろうな✨

(Translated by Google) It seems like you can walk from Ikaho Shrine to Miharashidai Station, but the ropeway is easier and recommended. There are observation decks, parks, and mountain trails, but be careful of bears and wild boars as you head along. (Original) 伊香保神社から歩いて見晴台駅まで行けるみたいですがロープウェイの方が楽々でオススメです。 展望台や公園、山道がありますがクマとイノシシに注意しながら向かいましょう。

(Translated by Google) After climbing the Ikaho Ropeway and walking along the mountain path for about 15 minutes, you will arrive at Ikaho Shrine and the stone steps, so we recommend that you continue down the stone steps and take a footbath on the way. I found a manhole with the letter D on it! (Original) 伊香保ロープウェイで登って山道を１５分くらい歩くと伊香保神社と石段の方に着くのでそのままで石段を下り途中で足湯に入るのがおすすめです。頭文字Dのマンホールを発見しました！

(Translated by Google) I visited before evening on a weekday. Rain, or rather thunder and torrential downpour. When I started coming, when I went up on the ropeway. To the guide uncle If the thunder gets worse, the ropeway will stop, so go to the observation deck and come back early. It made me feel warm to hear something like that. You can reach the observation deck in 2 to 3 minutes. It's a very beautiful view, but as expected It started raining heavily and I quickly descended the mountain. lol. The ropeway was very empty, I met a kind uncle On the contrary, I was lucky(^^) (Original) 平日夕方前に伺いました。 雨、とゆうか雷とゲリラ豪雨のようなものが 来始めた時で、ロープウェイで上がった時に 案内のおじさんに 雷ひどくなったらロープウェイ止まっちゃうから展望台いって、早めに戻っておいでね みたいな事を言っていただき、ほっこりしました。 展望台までは2、3分で着きます。 とても綺麗な見晴らしですが、案の定 大雨になりすぐに下山しました。笑。 ロープウェイはとても空いていましたし、 優しいおじさんに会えて 逆にラッキーでした(^^)

(Translated by Google) It's near the parking lot and comes every 15 minutes which is very good. Unfortunately, it was cloudy when we reached the top of the mountain, but the faint view of the cityscape was fantastic. (Original) 駐車場のそばにあり、15分おきにくるのはとても良いです。山頂に着いたときはあいにくの曇でしたが、薄っすら見える町並みも幻想的で良かったです。

This place is rundown and not worth what we paid. There was black mold in the water tank of the toilet, slowly filling up. The buffet was just ok, the dining room aesthetically thrown together and felt cheap. The onsen was alright, small, with a collapsing fence next to the outdoor bath. Two shower heads would not turn off. One wonders how this hotel can continue hosting guests without more investment, or if it's worth saving. Are other Ooedo hotels of similar standard?

Our Japanese style room was great! Although it was a bit old but it was clean and tidy. Unfortunately the public bath was quite small and the outdoor bath was closed during our visit. The customer service was awesome. They tried their very best to communicate with us in English. The buffet breakfast and dinner were good! Lots of varieties and they all tasted great.

I dropped by this onsen after SUP on the Lake Shima. I was able to get warm, but I felt a little cozy and expensive.

Nice clean rooms. Staff was very kind.

Everything was delicious.

A high usage fee

(Translated by Google) I stayed here because I wanted to visit Ikaho Onsen and because it's a newly renovated premium hotel at Oedo Onsen. The hotel staff were all friendly and the service was excellent. I arrived much earlier than planned, but they recommended the lounge because it was available. There are two types of baths, with men's and women's baths rotating depending on the time of day. There is no sauna or cold bath, only indoor and outdoor baths. Both hot springs were quite hot, which helped to relieve my daily fatigue. There is an alcohol bar in the lounge and after-bath area. The lounge has a server serving beer, highballs, and lemon sours, and a wide range of alcohol, including wine and shochu, all-you-can-drink. The after-bath area only has beer, highballs, and lemon sours, but you can eat as many popsicles as you like. In addition to alcohol, both hotels also had drink bar machines. For dinner, I had delicious pork, which I believe is a Gunma specialty. It was a buffet, and the selection included delicious pork sukiyaki, hot spring steamed basket dishes, and roast pork prepared right in front of you. There was also a wide selection of other dishes, including freshly fried tempura, sashimi, sushi, okkirikomi, Chinese food, and fried foods, so everyone from children to adults would be satisfied. The restaurant staff were all very friendly. The all-you-can-drink alcohol option included beer, highballs, shochu, wine, and mini bottles of sake. The local sake, Harunayama, was delicious and paired perfectly with the food. I arrived by train, but the bus stop was nearby, so it was easy to access on the way back. It was a great hotel for a relaxing stroll around the stone steps. (Original) 伊香保温泉に行ってみたかったのと、リニューアルした大江戸温泉のプレミアムということで泊まってきました。 ホテルの方はみんな親切で、サービスが良かったです。予定よりかなり早くついてしまったのですがラウンジが空いてるのでと勧めてもらいました。 お風呂に関しては2種類あり、時間で男湯と女湯で入れ替え制になります。サウナや水風呂などはなく、内湯と露天風呂のみになります。どちらのお湯もかなり熱めの温泉で、日頃の疲れが癒せました。 ラウンジと湯上がりスペースにはアルコールバーがあり、ラウンジにはビール、ハイボール、レモンサワーのサーバーと、ワインや焼酎など幅広いお酒が飲み放題でした。 湯上がりスペースはビールとハイボールとレモンサワーだけですが、アイスキャンディー食べ放題です。 どちらもお酒以外にもドリンクバーの機械もありました。 夕食は群馬の名物と思いますが、豚肉がとても美味しかったです。バイキングですが、豚すき焼き、温泉の蒸籠蒸し、目の前で仕上げてくれるローストポークなどいずれも美味しく、それ以外にも揚げたての天ぷら、お刺身やお寿司、おっきりこみ、中華、揚げ物など、幅広いラインナップで子供から大人まで満足できるものでした。レストランのスタッフの方も皆さん親切でした。 お酒飲み放題だとビール、ハイボール、焼酎、ワイン、日本酒ミニボトル、全部飲み放題になります。 地酒の榛名山というお酒が美味しく、料理ともとても合いました。 電車で来ましたが、帰りはバス停がすぐ近くなのでアクセスも良かったです。石段街をちょっと巡って、ゆっくりするには良いホテルでした。

Good location for children & old age people Weekend trips 😀

A very clean place with fresh air and a perfect for a picnic with the family. Entrance fees reasonable and plenty of parking. Lots of butterflies and flowers to see.

At the moment (Nov 2020), there is nothing much to view other than just an Insect Museum (昆虫館). Not many maple trees also. Not worth the 1000 yen entry fee.

One of my favorite places on Mt Akagi.

good

Lovely garden

Well managed

(Translated by Google) The main exhibits are Art Nouveau works by Gallé and the Daum brothers, as well as fine mantelpieces and furniture (made by Majorelle) from the early 20th century, as well as Art Deco and Meissen tableware. There seemed to be a variety of programs available that allow you to actually create things. (Unfortunately, I didn't have time to experience it) (Original) ガレ、ドーム兄弟などのアールヌーボー作品が中心で、20世紀初頭の立派なマントルピースや家具(マジョレル作）、アールデコ、マイセン等のテーブルウェアなどが展示されています。 実際にものを作れるプログラムがいろいろと準備されているようでした。（残念ながら時間がなくて体験できませんでした）

(Translated by Google) I 👔 visited for the first time♪ Authentic Art Nouveau works are on display. Unlike the atmosphere of Emile Gallé and Meissen, where many works are placed all over the place, it feels like an ``alternative space'' where the works are just there, without any pretense, and unbeknownst to us, they are there. Am I the only one whose 《interest》 that my eyes are trying to follow keeps building forward? . Are you even aware that attractive EUROPE furniture with a design you've never seen before, that you want right now, is quietly and quietly sitting there? I feel like my dignity is being tested. It's a wonderful museum that quietly puts the brakes on the visitors' legs while hiding luxury👍. (Original) 僕👔は初めて来訪しました♪。 本物志向の《 アールヌーボー作品 》が置かれています。 ＜エミールガレ＞や＜マイセン＞等、多くの作品をアチコチに配置している雰囲気とは違い、気を衒わずに何気無くそこに在ると言う［ 異空間 ]な感じに、知らず知らずのウチに、目が追おうとする《 興 味 》が前のめりに為って行くのは僕👔だけでしょうか？。 今すぐにでも欲しくなる、見た事もないデザインを纏う魅力的なEUROPE家具が、密かにand静かに佇んでいるのは、怖いくらいに、自分が気付いているのか？品格を試されている気がして来ます。 高級を潜ませながら、来館者の脚に静かにブレーキを掛けさせる、素晴らしい美術館です👍。

(Translated by Google) If you requested it within the price, they would give you an explanation, so you could enjoy the work in a very easy-to-understand manner. I am also fascinated by the many works that have been created over the years. Especially Emile Gallé's glass works. "Made the shape of a dream into glass" That's what I said. As I walked around the glass art, I couldn't help but admire the work, which created the atmosphere of circling around a lake. I became interested in learning more about this artist. Thank you for your easy-to-understand explanations and wonderful works! (Original) 料金内で希望をすれば解説をしていただき、とてもわかりやすく作品を楽しむことができました。 また、何年もかけて作られた作品の数々に魅了されます。 特にエミール・ガレ氏のガラス作品は 「夢の形をガラスにした」 とのこと。 ガラス工芸のまわりを一周まわると、まるで湖の周りを一周しているような雰囲気を醸し出している作品には思わず見惚れてしまいました。 もっとこの芸術家のことを知りたい、と興味を抱きました。 わかりやすい解説と、素晴らしい作品の数々をありがとうございました！

(Translated by Google) A curator will be on hand to explain the main exhibits in the museum. It's easy to listen carefully and he speaks slowly, so I think it's easy to enjoy the satisfaction of being able to take a close look at the show, even though it's small in size. The attached shop (admission is free) has glass-related accessories that are hard to find in regular shops, making it a must-see for glass lovers. When I stop by Shibukawa for business, I go out of my way to visit this place. The photo shows earrings purchased at a shop. The glass is sprayed with gold leaf, making it very elegant and lovely. We also carry a wide variety of glass products such as necklaces, flower vases, and tableware. (Original) 館内の主な展示品は学芸員さんがついて解説してくだります。 丁寧に聞きやすくゆっくり話してくださるので、こじんまりした規模感ながらもじっくり見られる満足感を味わいやすいかと思います。 併設のショップ（入場無料）には、一般のショップではなかなかお目にかかれないガラス関係のアクセサリー類があり、ガラス好きにはたまりません。 用事で渋川の近くを立ち寄る際はわざわざ足を運んでしまいます。 写真はショップで購入したイヤリング。ガラスに金箔が吹き付けてあり上品でとても素敵です。他にもネックレス、一輪挿し、食器などガラス製品を幅広く取り扱っています。

(Translated by Google) I visited again after about 10 years. This is an irresistible place for those who love glass crafts. Many Art Nouveau works are on display, including works by Emile Gallé and the Daum brothers. There is also a large number of wooden furniture from that time and furniture influenced by Japonism. I think the curator explained the exhibits in the museum in detail. I think the content is easy to understand even for first-time visitors. The in-house shop was also of high quality. There is also a glass craft experience space in the building, so I think it would be a good idea to have fun with your children. (Original) 10年振りくらいで再訪しました。ガラス工芸が好きな方には、たまらない場所です。エミール・ガレやドーム兄弟など、アールヌーボーの作品を多数展示しています。また、その当時の木工家具やジャポニズムの影響を受けた調度品も多数あります。館内の展示を学芸員の方だと思いますが、詳しく解説してくださいました。初めて来館される方でも、よく分かる内容になっていると思います。館内のショップも質の高いものでした。ガラス工芸の体験スペースも館内に有りますので、お子さんと楽しむのもいいかと思います。

(Translated by Google) There are not only gales but also domes. The number of exhibits seems small considering the admission fee, but some of the lampshades are large. (Original) ガレだけでなくドームなどもあります。 入館料の割に展示数は少ない感じがしますが、ランプシェードは大きいものがあります。

(Translated by Google) Admission fee is too high!! ️It's true that famous works such as Lalique, Dome, Baccarat, and Galle are on display, but it's in a small space, so if you're not that interested, it won't take more than 5 minutes to go around. Nowadays, when I go to the toilet and use the washlet, there is no washlet 🥴🥴 This is 2021 ❗ However, this is my personal opinion ❗ By the way, it was around noon on Sunday, and there were a lot of customers. ❗ (Original) 入場料が、高すぎる‼️確かに、ラリック❗ドーム❗バカラ❗ガレと有名な作品が展示はしてるけど、小さなスペースに有るから、余り興味のない人なら、一周するのに5分と掛からないでね🥴🥴それと、今どきトイレに入ってウオシュレットでは、有りませんでした🥴🥴2021年の事です❗但し個人的な意見ですよ❗ちなみに、日曜日のお昼頃でしたが、お客さんは、チラホラでした❗

(Translated by Google) The Takehisa Yumeji Ikaho Memorial Museum has more Yumeji exhibits and a souvenir corner, but you can also see masterpieces by other artists. It's all on the second floor. To protect the works, the lighting inside the museum was dimmed and the air conditioner was not running, so it was cold inside. There weren't many people in the museum, so it was reserved for everyone, and people with bad manners were talking loudly from beginning to end, so I couldn't enjoy the show in peace. The footbath at the entrance is currently closed. (Original) 竹久夢二伊香保記念館の方が、夢二に関しては展示もお土産コーナーも充実してますが、他の画家さんの名画も鑑賞できます。 全二階です。 作品保護のため、館内の照明は暗くしてあり、エアコンも稼働してなかったので館内が寒かったです。 入館者は少なかった為、逆に貸切状態でマナーの悪い方が終始大声で会話していたので、ゆっくり鑑賞出来ませんでした。 入口の足湯は休止中です。

(Translated by Google) You can see the works of many famous people. In particular, I feel strange when I look at Yumeji Takehisa's works. You can also enjoy looking at the works of other famous people. Photography is not allowed inside the museum, so you can only take pictures of the entrance sign and observation deck. (Original) 多くの有名な人たちの作品を見れます。とくに竹久夢二の作品は見ていて不思議な気持ちになれます。他の有名人の作品も見ていて楽しめます。館内は撮影禁止なので、入り口の看板と展望室のみの撮影です。

(Translated by Google) Photography is prohibited inside the museum, so I only have pictures of the outside. I went there in early July, and it was so hot inside that I started to sweat... The works on display were good, but it was so hot that I didn't feel like taking my time to appreciate them, so I cut it short. (Original) 館内は撮影禁止ですので外の写真のみです。 ７月の初旬に行ったのですが館内が暑くて汗がじわじわ滲んでくる感じ.. 展示されている作品は良いのですが暑くてゆっくり鑑賞する気になれず早々に切り上げました。

(Translated by Google) The works on display are all masterpieces. I was particularly surprised by Kobayashi Kaichi's work, thinking, "Who knew there was someone who could paint such stylish pictures!" However, I wondered whether the museum had the necessary facilities for display and storage.The structure makes me wonder if it was originally a tourist facility, and it didn't appear to have the functionality of a museum, such as lighting or other facilities. All of the works are worth seeing, so it's a facility I'll want to visit whenever I'm in the Ikaho area. (Original) 展示されている作品が名品揃いです。 中でも小林かいちの作品は「こんなオシャレな絵を描く人がいたんだ！」と驚きでした。 ただ、展示や保管の設備が整っているかどうかが気になりました。もともと他の観光施設だったのかな？と思わせる構造をしており、照明等の設備など美術館としての機能が備わっていないように見えました。 作品はどれも一見の価値ありですので、伊香保方面へ行く度に訪れたくなる施設です。

(Translated by Google) September 2025 It's a magnificent building, but it was fully booked the entire time. I wonder if it's financially viable...? Since we visited after the Takehisa Yumeji Memorial Museum, the selection of Yumeji's works felt a little lacking, but we were able to enjoy contemporary paintings as well as works by artists who lived during the same period. It was a little lonely because there weren't many people there... (Original) 2025.09 立派な建物ですが終始貸切状態でした。 経営成り立ってるのかな・・・？ 竹久夢二記念館の後だったので、夢二作品は若干物足りなく感じますが、同時期に過ごした作家さんの他、現代絵画も堪能できます。 人が少なすぎてちょっと寂しいかな・・・

(Translated by Google) The popular permanent exhibition at the privately run Hoshina Museum of Art is... The World of Kobayashi Kaichi. Until recently, his gender, the number of works he produced, and other details were largely unknown, leading to his being called a phantom painter. From the late Taisho to early Showa periods, Kobayashi Kaichi's illustrated envelopes and other works were hugely popular with young women, but they were gradually forgotten. However, the splendor of his designs is now being rediscovered. (Original) 私設のミュージアムである保科美術館で人気の常設展が…小林かいちの世界。彼は近年まで性別や作品数など、ほとんどが不明だったことから幻の画家と呼ばれています。大正後期から昭和初期、小林かいちが手がけた絵封筒などが若い女性に大人気でしたが次第に忘れられていきました。しかし今、そのデザインの素晴らしさが再評価されています。

(Translated by Google) This was an art museum I'd been interested in for a long time. Even though I was born and lived in Shibukawa City for a long time, this was my first time visiting. Perhaps because it was a weekday, there were only a few customers, so I was able to take my time and enjoy the exhibits. I was very moved. There were works by various artists, all of which were excellent. I went alone, so I was mumbling to myself as I looked around. (Original) ずっと気になっていた美術館でした。地元渋川市で生まれ長く住んでいたのに初めて伺いました。平日だったからか数人のお客様しかおらずゆっくりじっくり鑑賞が出来ました。 自分はとても感動しました。色々な作家の方の作品がありどれも良かったです。一人で行ったので心の中であれこれつぶやきながら拝見させて頂きました。
