I went to ``Ekaki no Yado Fukuizumi,'' which boasts a spectacular view of Agano River and Mt. Kirin right in front of me.This quiet, hidden inn with 15 rooms looks new at first glance, but it is also a long-established inn that was founded in 1934.As soon as I entered the room, I couldn't help but exclaim, ``Wow!'' at the breathtaking view that spread out in front of me, as if it were a ``picture'' (lol). The Agano River is a class I river that flows from Fukushima to Niigata. In front of you is Mt. Kirin, which has an altitude of 2105 meters.As the name suggests, it is a ``painting inn'', and the rooms are stocked with sketchbooks and pencils. It is certainly an inn that will ``stimulate your artistic spirit.''We have a variety of atmospheric baths, including open-air baths, private baths, and indoor baths. I fell in love with this open-air bath. The washing area is a little small, but the sound of the Agano River and the gentle breeze blowing on the surface of the river is very pleasant! !Depending on your plan, you can choose to have ``meals in your room.'' Both breakfast and dinner are served in a semi-private dining room. For sake, compare the local sakes, ``Kirinzan'' and ``Kirin.'' All of them have a clear and refreshing taste that is hard to beat.The view of the Agano River from the room and open-air bath was spectacular, and the food we received was hearty and delicious, befitting an ``inn with a spectacular view.'' It's no wonder that there are so many repeat customers.The next morning, when I thought the pounding rain had stopped, it was slightly brighter outside. After the rain, the surface of the river is covered with a light mist, creating an atmosphere reminiscent of a sumi-e painting. After taking a morning bath in the slightly cool air, we had breakfast.Check-out time at the inn is 11am, but alas, we have to catch the Banetsu Nishi Line bound for Aizuwakamatsu, which leaves Tsugawa Station at 10:30am. When I went outside after being seen off by a staff member, a courtesy car was already on standby.Although the stay was not very long, the experience of ``a time of tranquility'' with only the ``one-of-a-kind spectacular view'' and the sounds of the river, wind, and rain was a valuable experience that could not easily be experienced at other hotels. think.Apparently there are nights when you can enjoy fireflies from May to June. Also, if you stay on the weekend, you can apparently take pictures of the SL Banetsu Monogatari, which runs on the opposite shore.Although it is a little far from Tokyo, it was a wonderful inn that I would like to visit again if I have the chance.
