Takeda Castle Ruins, a mountaintop fortress with breathtaking vistas, offers an unforgettable journey for those in search of spiritual enlightenment. Although quite a distance from Osaka Station via train, the lush greenery and picturesque views make it well worth the trek. For those who crave physical activity, Takeda Castle Ruins is a great place to run up and be rewarded with stunning scenery at the top. The ideal time to visit is early spring when mist shrouds the entire mountain range.
Simply put: If you want to experience being within or on top of the clouds go to Takeda Castle ruins early morning. If you want to see the clouds envelope the castle go to Ritsuunkyo parking lot.

Take a bus from Takeda station to the Takeda ruin stop and you have to take a 20mins hike up to the entrance of the ruins where you can purchase your ticket with a machines. Recommended that you bring 1000yen or coins for the bus rides, bigger notes are okay for the ticket but not the bus.
Be prepared to walk alot up and also inside the ruins, to exit the ruins it’s using stairs but they are pretty steep. We came abit too early for the cherry blossom and too late timing for the clouds, so you can plan your trip for it but expected a crowd at those peak periods too.

Stuning view. You can take a bus from a station and then short walk to the castle or start hiking from the back of Takeda station.
I arrived there at 8.10 am after climbing down from Rutsunkyo in the morning and the clound had already fade away, hope I can come back and see the clound from the castle someday.

Absolutely fantastic spot that reminds me of Machu Picchu on its ruins layout and perched atop a mountain. The bus from the visitor centre departs with quite a wide gap in timing so do time it well if you are visiting, else walking or taxi is the only option. The bus takes you near, but still an uphill walk for 900m is still required.
As you walk uphill, there's a turn left where the signboard says not to enter from, and that is actually the exit point. Technically if you go through there, then it's free entry? As there is no ticket checks within the ruins itself. However, the ticket price is not at all hefty and I will recommend that we all do our part to preserve this fantastic monument.
At the end of the monument, you can see a sweeping view of the Takeda town below.

A few days ago, I travelled with my family to visit the "Takeda Castle Ruins" in Asago-shi, Hyōgo-Prefecture-Japan. It's a bit of a drive from Kyoto, about 21/2 hours to be precise. There are a few options available on maps, and we opted for driving most of it through the countryside. Time-wise, it hardly made a difference. About halfway in, we stopped at an udon restaurant for lunch.
Our first stop was high up on NR 163; it's a winding road to the top and easily accessible by car. On the top, there is a spot from where you can see Takeda Castle Ruins. The distance to the castle is just under 3.00 kilometres or 1.8 miles. I used a 70-200 telelens with a 2X extender. The weather was not at its best, with slight rain and dark clouds; still, it was a fun experience. Of course, the prime time to shoot a legendary picture is in late autumn when there is fog in the morning.
There is a second spot that is very popular with photographers. Located on the opposite side of the castle, you'll need to hike up between 10 and 30 minutes. There are three observation spots, with number one the hot place and the highest. Because it was getting dark, I opted for the third observation spot. The shooting distance to the castle is just under 2.00 kilometres or 1.2 miles.
There is a path, but it is steep and rugged. This area is famous for its clusters of cherry trees during the sakura season. I definitely would like to go back in autumn to see the castle in a sea of clouds.

Takedajō-seki) is a ruined castle in Asago City, Hyogo Prefecture, that is also known as the "castle floating in the sky" because of the way it appears to be floating on a sea of clouds on foggy autumn mornings.
The castle was originally built in 1411 and was later conquered by Toyotomi Hideyoshi on one of his western campaigns to reunite Japan. The castle's forces fought against the Tokugawa clan during the battle of Sekigahara in 1600, and the castle was abandoned not long after. It then gradually disintegrated over the centuries until the ruins were restored in the 1970s and 80s and the castle opened as a tourist site.

Took the train from Osaka station, it was quite a long train journey but the views from Takeda castle ruins made me forget about it. A special memory, lots of green and beautiful views of the landscape. Very powerful spot for the spiritually aware.
For the fit like me, you can run up it in 20mins. Great exercise & the beauty at the top will rewarding.
Best time to visit I was told was really early morning spring, when the whole mountain is covered in mist.

A few tips that I could‘t find any information on in advance: (1) The bus that runs from the second car park / visitor center is infrequent and if too many people line up, the bus will be full and you can‘t get on. However, there are two taxis available that you can take and it‘s only ¥650 to go further up. You can also easily walk that short distance on the paved road - it‘s not steep. Check my photo for bus times. (2) There are toilets by the visitor centre and the ticket gate by the entrance. (3) The entrance was actually ¥500. (4) It‘s absolutely beautiful to visit during cherry blossom season! (5) I seems that the main way up (when you follow the signposted path to Takeda Castle) is paved, not steep and easy to walk on. There are other hiking trails on the sides from the town that are much more challenging. Walking on the castle grounds has a few steps, but is fairly easy. (6) Even though it‘s a fairly well-known spot, it doesn‘t have an touristy feel about it. This place is absolutely amazing with some of the best views I‘ve had in Japan!

There is no way to drive up to the ruins other than either taking a bus and walk 20 mins up or taking a taxi and walk 20 mins up. The place is quite nice with awesome view of the surrounding. Just be prepared to walk up the mountain.
The Ikuno Silver Mine has been operational since 807 AD and is now a popular tourist destination boasting tours, an educational center, and a museum. Visitors can take shelter from any weather conditions and explore the incredibly long tunnels that span approximately 1500m. The museum provides a wealth of information on the history of the mine, and those interested in geology will appreciate the wide variety of minerals available at the souvenir shop.
Good place to go in any weather to get out of the elements. The mine entrance is near the parking lot and you can walk about 1500m of the ridiculously long tunnels. Good history lesson and informative museum next to the parking lot too. The souvenir shop didn't have anything for us to get, but if you like power stones or mineral rocks, they have a lot of types. If the weather is good, it's also nice to walk outside too, and find all the cave/mine openings from hundreds of years ago.

Very impressive to walk through the mine. The main tour route through the mine was well presented. There is also an app so you can take a virtual tour from home.
The taxi driver gave us a lot of information on the way from the station.
There is a hiking trail around the mountain but there was no map and the scant signpost did not indicate how much more of trail remained for us to explore or if there were any attractions we should look for.

Frank VAI — Google review
An interesting look into the past through the view of a mine, operating until the 70's the Ikuno silver mine was active for over a thousand years.
Info pamphlets are available in English as well as Chinese and Korean. Signs in the mine itself are only in Japanese and English, and the small museum is Japanese only.
If you are fond of mines or are living locally and would like to learn a bit about the region's history I'd recommend it. But I would not describe it as a must see if you're just passing through.

In the depths of summer this place remains cool (in all senses of the word). Well worth a visit to understand what lies underneath our feet...deep underneath our feet!
Walking the mine tunnels brings home the dangers of this work, and the museum is well equipped. Fascinating place.

A historical silver mine. 2 waterfalls. The entrance has a taste of Japanese garden. You can see inside of the mine through walking about 1km. There are some human like figures to inform us the life of mining. They are a bit scary.
Shirai Omachi Fuji Park boasts a large expanse of land adorned with beautiful flowers such as daffodils and wisteria, surrounding a serene pond. The park also features a charming watermill located by the riverside. It is truly a picturesque spot perfect for nature lovers to relax and enjoy the beauty of their surroundings. Visitors can explore the vast greenery and indulge in various outdoor activities while taking in the tranquil atmosphere.
A park with beautiful wisteria flowers. It's a purple dream world. We visited in early May, but the park is closed the rest of the year.
(Translated by Google) The cost is 500 yen per person for junior high school students and above, and free for elementary school students and above.
The parking lot is free and can accommodate about 300 cars, but we visited after 11am on May 3rd during Golden Week, and there was quite a lot of traffic by the time we got there.
During the blooming period, it is featured on TV every day and is crowded with many people.
You will have to make a large detour to get to the parking lot, so please follow the directions of the staff.
There is also a free shuttle bus that runs from Aeon every 30 minutes, and since it runs in a dedicated lane, you won't have to worry about traffic jams, so it might be a good idea to use that bus.
In the park, there are curtains of wisteria flowers on the wisteria trellis, which is very beautiful.
There are water wheels, fountains, and carp streamers lined up in a row on top of the dam, so I think an hour is enough time to walk around the park.
It is also lit up at night, giving you a fantastic atmosphere that is different from the daytime.
There are basically no restaurants, just a few takoyaki stalls and some drink vending machines.

料金は中学生以上から一人500円、小学生までは無料です。
駐車場も無料になり300台ほど駐車出来ますが、当方が訪れたのはゴールデンウィークの5月3日の午前11時過ぎで入るまでにかなり渋滞していました。
開花した時期はテレビなどで連日紹介されており多くの人で賑わっています。
駐車場までは大きく迂回して入る事になりますので係員さんの誘導に従って下さい。
またイオンから30分間隔で無料のシャトルバスも運行されており、専用のレーンを走行するので渋滞とは無縁になり、そちらを利用するのもいいかと思われます。
公園内には藤棚に藤の花のカーテンが出来ていてとてもキレイです。
水車や噴水、ダムの上には横一列に並んだ鯉のぼりなどがあり園内の散策は1時間もあれば充分かと思います。
また夜間のライトアップなども行われており昼間とは違った幻想的な雰囲気を楽しめます。
飲食店などは基本的になくたこ焼きの屋台などが少しあるくらいなのと飲み物の自動販売機があるくらいです。

(Translated by Google) Visited for the first time with my grandchildren after having some gelato at the nearby Ice Studio Lilac.
The wisteria was in full bloom and the large parking lot was quite full.
I thought it was free to enter, but it's only 500 yen for adults.
Children under elementary school age were free.
The wisteria in full bloom was more spectacular than I had imagined, and the sweet scent of wisteria carried by the wind blowing through the valley was very soothing.
At Fuji Park in Wake Town, Okayama Prefecture, there are a lot of bees flying around, but there were almost no bees here, so I was able to enjoy the park without stress.
It was a bit cloudy that day, so the colors of the wisteria in the photo were not very good, so I wanted to visit next year when the weather is sunny.

(Translated by Google) I went on May 4, 2023!
from this year? There is a shuttle bus in operation, and you don't have to worry about traffic jams as it passes through a dedicated shuttle bus road 🤩🌟👍
The first train leaves from Aeon Wadayama store at 10am, so I arrived 10 minutes early, but it looks like the first train had already left😳
I think the line was probably already full! 😅
After about 30 minutes, I was able to get on the second flight with plenty of time, but it seems that the people at the back of the line couldn't get on.
We arrived at the park around 11 o'clock, but the general road was jammed with traffic💦💦💦
There was still a lot of traffic around 12:00 on the way back, so I recommend taking the shuttle bus 😉
Noda wisteria was almost in full bloom, and the standing white wisteria trees were in their fourth half.
I think they will all be in full bloom on the last day of Golden Week🧐
There is also a shop in the park, where I bought warabi mochi❗It was super soft and delicious🤩✨✨✨Recommended❗❗

公園に到着は11時前位でしたが一般車両道路はつづら折りに渋滞してました💦💦💦
帰りの12時位もまだまだ渋滞してたのでシャトルバスで行く事をオススメします😉
野田藤はほぼ満開で、白藤の立木は4部咲き位でした。
GW最終日位が全て満開になるのではないでしょうか🧐
公園内には売店も有り、わらび餅を購入❗これがめちゃくちゃ柔らかくて美味しかったです🤩✨✨✨オススメ❗❗

It was a clear day and there was a moderate wind, so the wisteria flowers waving in the wind were a nice touch.
Parking is limited, so be prepared for traffic jams. It seems that shuttle buses are also in operation, so please check on the platform ☝️
The wisteria flowers, which have been lovingly grown by locals for over 20 years, are worth a visit 👍️

(Translated by Google) Today I came to Shirai Omachi Wisteria Park in Wadayama Town. The wisteria flowers here are a little late, and the best time to see them is now. It is located in a mountain valley and is surrounded by nature. Parking is free, and admission is 500 yen for adults and 300 yen for people with disabilities. There were so many cars that we waited for 40 minutes to get to the parking lot. When you go inside, there are wisteria trellises on all sides, which are spectacular and beautiful.They are still safe until mid-May. Feeling healed.

(Translated by Google) A ruin with an overwhelming presence.
It is said to have been in operation until 1986.
I thought it wasn't that long ago, but looking at the extent of the damage on the concrete made me realize how much time has passed.
Also, depending on the time of year, there are times when it is lit up.
The former residence of Mousse is also a quaint and wonderful building.
I wasn't able to see it because I visited in the fall, but there is a 200-year-old crape myrtle tree that is said to be very beautiful.
It's very rare, so I'd like to go see it again someday.
*There are no restaurants nearby where you can eat, so we recommend that you plan your trip in advance.

(Translated by Google) It is said to be the best ore processing plant in the East, also known as the nightless castle.
Today, most of the building has been demolished and almost nothing remains, with only the concrete foundation remaining, but the foundation alone gives you an idea of how huge the facility is.
The Myojin train (one yen train) that connected Akenobe and Mikobata is also on display.

I'm glad it was empty and I was able to take a leisurely stroll around the area.
The Big Thickener is impressive even when viewed from below, but I felt strongly that I wanted to see the mine ruins from above!
If the incline and 10-yen train were revived, it would become a major tourist destination, but perhaps it would be better to keep the quiet and nostalgic atmosphere...
The ruins of Mikobata Elementary School looked so emotional in the bright sunlight.

(Translated by Google) It is a very impressive facility as it is the largest ore processing plant in the East.
It was amazing to see it suddenly appear as I was heading towards it.
The museum exhibits photos and videos of how the castle was so prosperous at the time that it was called the Nightless Castle.
It has been certified as a Japanese heritage site.
There is a large parking lot (free of charge), and there is also a museum attached, but I thought they needed a little more ingenuity in how the facilities were displayed.
It's full of wire fences and no-trespassing signs, making it impossible to get up close and taking photos only from a distance.
I think it would be a good idea to have a space where you can get close to it (while ensuring safety, of course) and a place where you can take photos, even just a part of it.

(Translated by Google) I was moved by the impressive landscape where traces of facilities where important work necessary to build the foundations of industry and the country were performed suddenly appeared in the mountains surrounded by nature.
It was in operation until 1986, and the facility (ruins) remained until 2004.
I went there by motorcycle, and there was a covered parking space, and the parking lot was fairly large, and it was close to the facility, so it was easy to use, and it was free.
There is also a toilet in the museum adjacent to the parking lot, where you can learn about what it was like back then.
They also sell souvenirs with characters that resemble the symbolic thickener of the remaining facilities, and I bought a cute sticker for 100 yen.
However, you cannot enter the museum with shoes on, so we went there wearing lighting boots, which was a bit of a hassle.
I visited at the end of March, and it was very beautiful to see a beautiful colony of Mitsumata in the mountains leading up to the facility.

Since then, I've forgotten about it. . .
By chance, I was planning a trip around Takeda Castle and Ikuno Silver Mine, and I was wondering if there was any place I could stop by. Staring at the map, sightseeing spots caught my eye.
Ah, I feel like I'm being awakened.
The image of the place is a bit disappointing.
Although it is worth seeing in terms of scale, it is severely weathered.
Shouldn't it be taken a little more seriously as a tourist resource? There are many restrictions on entry, so you can only look at it from a distance. . .
Various explanations can be learned along with dioramas at nearby related facilities, Mousse's former residence, and the Exchange Center [God's Selection].

(Translated by Google) Visited GW in 2022. It is Awaga Shrine, which is Tajima Kuniichinomiya or Ninomiya.
It has a tremendous atmosphere (sorry for the expression I don't understand), and you can feel the solemn atmosphere and history. Is this a power spot (there are individual differences)? I was binging. It's a nice place. You can get the red stamp at the priest's house on the other side. Perhaps because of the influence of the corona, the red stamp on the front door was unmanned, so I was grateful that I received a red stamp of my favorite size and put 300 yen into the price. Up to this point, I have been particular about writing directly, but I really wanted the red stamp of Awaga Shrine with this atmosphere, so I started working on the red stamp of the writing for the first time. There are enough parking lots.

Is it difficult to reach by public transport? Impression that it will be difficult to maintain as Ichinomiya. I am very aware that it is difficult due to the corona disaster, but I thought that even if there were worshipers there, I would not be able to hit one of the bows.
I wasn't there at the time of the visit, but I passed by someone who seemed to be the chief priest, but I was so indifferent that I felt uneasy. As for the goshuin, there is a note holder and a firstfruits fee box at the entrance of the chief priest's house.

This is also one of the shrines in Tajima Province.
This deity is
Amemisari no Mikoto
Hikohoho Temi no Mikoto (Yamasachihiko)
Hikozao no Mikoto (Hikoimasu no Ookimikoto = Hikohoho Temi no Mikoto's older brother)
That's what I mean.
In terms of connection, it seems possible, but there seem to be many mysteries as to why this deity is enshrined as a deity.
There is a parking lot next to the torii gate, which is like a plaza, which is very convenient for people like us who visit Ichinomiya by car.
Once you pass through the torii gate, keep the Imperial Embassy Gate on your right and walk forward until you see the Suishin Gate, and if you pass through this you will enter the shrine grounds.
When you enter the temple grounds, the atmosphere changes completely.
The green ground spreads out and the air is crisp. power? No, no, I feel that it is not something so light.
The main shrine has a slightly unusual flowing structure, and the connected worship halls are a structure I have never seen before.
A guardian dog is also a pair of a lion and a dog.
This is really great.
Finally, when I went to the shrine office to get a goshuin, it said to come to the house across the street, and when I went there, I found a goshuin with a note. . .
However, since I had come this far, I called out loudly from the front door, and a very elegant woman came out from inside and happily gave me a handwritten red seal.
(Actually, this person looked like the chief priest here.)
After writing, I can write on the back of my Ichinomiya Goshuin book, but since it will show through, I put a paper mount between the two Goshuin books, so I can see where to start next. He even added a bookmark.
I was impressed.
Thank you very much.

こちらも但馬國の一宮の一つになります。
こちらの御祭神は
天美佐利命(あめのみさりのみこと)
日子穂穂手見尊(ひこほほでみのみこと=山幸彦)
日子坐王命(ひこいますのおおきみのみこと=日子穂穂手見尊のお兄ちゃん)
との事。
繋がり的には、あり得るかと思えるけど、何故この神々が御祭神としてお祀りしてるかは、謎が多そうです。
鳥居の横に広場というような駐車場があり、車で一宮詣でする私達のような方にはとても便利です。
鳥居を抜けると勅使門を右に見ながら進むと、隋神門があり、ここをくぐると境内。
境内に入ると空気は一変します。
緑の地面が広がり、ピンとした空気。パワー?いやいや、そんな軽い物じゃない厳かな気を感じます。
本殿は少し変わった流れ造りで、繋がった拝殿も見たことのない造り。
狛犬も獅子と犬の対。
こちらはホントに素晴らしい。
さて最後に御朱印を求めに社務所へ行くと、向いの家へ来て下さいとあり、向かうと書置きの御朱印が。。。
でもここまで来たのだからと、玄関から大きな声で、声をかけると、中からとても品の良い女性が出て来られ、快く手書きの御朱印に応じてくれました。
(実はこの方がこちらの宮司さんのようでした。)
記帳の後、私の一宮御朱印帳は裏にも書けますが、裏写りしてしまうからと、御朱印帳が2枚重ねになってる間に紙の台紙を挟んでくれ、次はここからとわかる栞まで付けてくれました。
感激しました。
本当に有難うございました。

Goshuin is written in writing
It seems that the chief priest is not always stationed at the shrine office, so you can get the goshuin stamp at the chief priest's home.
There is a sign in the office that shows the location of your home.
Free parking available at the shrine
The grounds of the shrine are covered with moss, making it a very atmospheric shrine.

(Translated by Google) Awaga Shrine, Awaga, Santo-cho, Asago City.
Ichinomiya, Tajima Province. Izushi Shrine is also considered to be an Ichinomiya shrine. Former prefectural company. There are also documents that indicate it as Ninomiya, Tajima Province. The main deity is Hikozao. Hiko Hoho Temi no Mikoto, Amami Sari no Mikoto. The Awaka Daimyojin Genki lists the enshrined deity and successive priests. It was still alive and well in the first year of the Wado period (708). Hikozao was appointed as one of the four shoguns by Tamba Doshu and played an active role, but his final resting place is in the circular tomb behind the main shrine.
It can be said that what shrines convey is the existence of a country. If there is a country that I have forgotten to count, or if there is a savage god who kills half of the passers-by, the power of Hikozao opened the imperial court, Togakarikagu Palace, and this continued until the next generation of Tamba Doshu no Mikoto. Become the power of the Wani clan. The savage god is the impression seen from the opposing forces, but in the end he is defeated. After the transfer of Zen, a family dispatched from Omiwa Shrine served as Hosai. This can also be said to be the reason why there are two Ichinomiyas. Toga's name comes from Toga Ishibe Shrine, which can be seen nearby.
The location is just southwest of Kitakinki Toyooka Expressway, when you get off the Santo IC. It will be along Prefectural Route 275. Parking available. I also want to visit Tokatsu Shrine nearby. A shrine worshiped as the lower shrine of Awaga Shrine. 1km further down Prefectural Route 275. Also, the mountain southeast of the area where there are many radio towers is Mt. Awaga. Altitude: 962m.
It has also been pointed out that there is a connection with Awa Province, also known as Kuri Province. Nearby is Akabuchi Shrine (Wadayama-cho, Asago City), which is said to have been saved by an abalone.
(Original)
粟鹿神社、朝来市山東町粟鹿。
但馬国一宮。出石神社も一宮とされる。旧県社。但馬国二宮とする資料もある。主祭神は、日子坐王。日子穂穂手見尊、天美佐利命。粟鹿大明神元記には、祭神や歴代祭主など載せる。和銅元年(708)には健在。日子坐王が、四道将軍の一人として、丹波道主に任ぜられて活躍したが、終焉の地として、本殿後方の円墳に王が眠る。
神社が伝えるのは、国の存在と言える。数え忘れた国がある、また、通行人半分殺す荒ぶる神がいるともし、日子坐王の勢力が朝廷・刀我禾鹿鹿宮を開き、丹波道主命の次代まで続いた。和邇氏の勢力とする。荒ぶる神は、反対勢力から見た印象だが、最終的に禅譲される。禅譲後は、大神神社から派遣された一族が奉斎。一宮が2つある理由とも言える。刀我の名は、付近に刀我石部神社が見える。
現地は、北近畿豊岡道・山東ICから降りると南西すぐ。県道275号沿いになる。駐車場あり。また、そばの當勝神社もお参りしたい。粟鹿神社の下宮として信仰された神社。県道275号をさらに奥へ1Km先となる。また、付近から南東、たくさんの電波塔がある山こそ、粟鹿山となる。標高962m。
なお、栗国こと阿波国との関連性も指摘される。周辺には、赤渕神社(朝来市和田山町)があり、アワビに助けられたとの由緒が残る。

Corona measures have been eased, and I visited Ichinomiya for the first time in a while.
Wisteria was blooming beautifully in the precincts.
I was worried whether they would be able to write directly on the large-sized goshuin books exclusively for Ichinomiya nationwide, but from May 1st, if there is a request, it seems that they will be able to write directly on regular goshuin books as well.
There is also a notepad for those who are in a hurry.

Takeda Teramachi St can be described as a bustling and vibrant street, enriched with a diverse range of activities and attractions. This lively thoroughfare offers an array of amenities, including various shops, restaurants, and entertainment venues that cater to the needs and preferences of its visitors. It boasts an energetic atmosphere that captivates both locals and tourists alike.
Roadside station Tajima-no-mahoroba is a captivating stop along the toll road that offers visitors a unique experience. Housing a miniature historical museum, this fascinating spot also doubles as a supermarket, providing an extensive range of goods. If one were to compare Hachis Kita ski resort to an exhilarating F1 motor race, then Roadside station Tajima-no-mahoroba would be the perfect pit stop for refueling.

We spent a weekend at Ikuno Stay house #19 this month and it was wonderful! We loved staying in the beautiful mountain area in an old Japanese style home! The updated bathtub was really a treat! The home had all of the modern amenities we needed along with the beautiful old world charm. We enjoyed playing games in the evening around the heated kotastu table. I highly recommend Ikuno Stay and hope to return someday!
Michelle Scott — Google review
Stayed here during the end of March as part of a tour. It's conveniently located around 10 minutes by foot from Ikuno Station and is a beautifully renovated home with a rich history, amazing sunlight and was a super comfortable and clean location to stay at. I stayed here with 4 other people and it still felt very spacious. The home also has a traditional Japanese Goemon-bath tub which was very cool and has interesting artifacts as part of the decor.
The host is extremely accommodating and I would 100% recommend it if you intend to visit Ikuno Mine, go cycling or just happen to travel to this area!

There is also a Goemon bath in Building 9, which is probably from the Meiji era. Showa? It's a time slip 👀!! ️
(The hot water supply facility is gas and has a shower)
Of course, you can rent out the whole building, so you can see the exhibits to your heart's content.
Facilities include a refrigerator, rice cooker, toaster, microwave, pot, pot, IH stove, and tableware, so I cooked my own dinner.
(Please prepare a knife)
The bedroom has air conditioning and is comfortable🍀😌🍀
In the future, a washing machine will also be installed for long-term stays.
For breakfast, I went to the bakery in front of the station to buy some freshly baked goods 🥯 (opens at 7:30, recommended!)
This is a recommended place where you can spend the most luxurious time relaxing on the veranda or strolling around Ikuno town.

As you stroll to the bridge in the back, you will see a firefly sign! Around June, the fireflies will be flying and it will be beautiful. The water is also clean (﹡ˆ﹀ˆ﹡). The building looks old, but they seem to have set meals, and the Art Forest is about 2km away, so it would be nice to eat here and then take a walk! Tataragi Forest Resort is also located in the Art Forest, so it's a good place to have lunch on the way home. If you drive for about 10 minutes, you will see Tataragi Dam and art museum, which is a good drive!

The Asago Art Park Museum, located near the Tataragi Dam, is a tranquil and serene place to visit. On weekdays, visitors can admire the beautiful artworks displayed throughout the museum. The permanent exhibition showcases the unique and tasteful works of Toshio Yodoi. Additionally, there are period exhibitions featuring photographers such as Hiroki Inoue from Hokkaido and TATSUSHI, who specializes in capturing Mt. Fuji.
A nice little museum in a larger area, known as the "art forest" there are a number of outdoor installations around and alongside the museum itself can take a while to explore. Titles are offered in English alongside the write-up of the artist who's work is on permanent display, all other signage varies as to whether any English is offered.

The temporary exhibition was an exhibition of works by Hiroki Inoue, an animal photographer from Hokkaido, and TATSUSHI, a mountain photographer who mainly focuses on Mt. Fuji, as well as an exhibition of photos of elementary, junior high, and high school students.
I have always loved Mr. Inoue's work, so I lost track of time as I watched it.

多々良木ダムを目的地にツーリングしましたが、すぐ近くにあさご芸術の森美術館の看板があったので寄ってみました。平日だった事もあって、静かで落ち着いた雰囲気の中、素敵なオブジェがあちこちに展示してありました。
桜やオブジェに癒されるひと時を味わう事ができました。
美術館の常設展は淀井敏夫氏の作品が展示されています。独特の作風で一つ一つ味わい深い作品でした。
期間展示は北海道の動物写真家の井上浩樹氏と富士山をメインとした山の写真家TATSUSHI氏の作品展と小中高校生の写真展でした。
私は以前から井上氏の作品が大好きだったので、時間を忘れて鑑賞させていただきました。

(Translated by Google) I really liked it! The name “Art Forest” makes sense. The road along the river is dotted with small parks, and each park has a parking lot for about two cars, so you can stop for a while and take some photos. There is Tataragi Resort Cocode on the way, where you can stay in a cute yurt-like lodge. When you go to the very back, you will see Tataragi Dam and the Asago Art Museum next to it! It's about 3km to walk all the way, so you can walk until you get there, or you can park in the large parking lot under the dam and walk. There were so many cute objects in the park and forest, so I had a relaxing time! After walking around, we drove around the dam. I think I could do it for a week in about 30 minutes! There was also a Midorigaoka campsite at the very back of the dam. I could see an auto site with a deck, but it was closed today so I couldn't take a tour.
You can enjoy it even on a day trip! It's also great to camp or stay at a resort!
Recommended for dates and families!

すごく気に入りました!芸術の森って名前に納得。川沿いの道には小さな公園が点在してて、どこの公園にも駐車場が2台分位ずつあり、ちょこっと停めては写真を撮って。途中には多々良木リゾートcocodeがあって、パオみたいな可愛いロッジに泊まれます。一番奥まで行くと、多々良木ダムとその横に朝来美術館!全部歩いても3キロぐらいなので来るまで行ってもいいし、ダムの下の大きな駐車場に停めて歩いてもいい。公園や森にとても可愛いオブジェがいっぱいで、のんびり楽しめました!散策したあとはダムをぐるっとドライブ。30分ぐらいで1週できたと思います!ダムの一番奥にも緑ヶ丘キャンプ場がありました。デッキがあるオートサイトが見えましたがきょうはおやすみだったので見学は出来ませんでした。
日帰りでも十分楽しめます!キャンプやリゾートで泊まるのもいいですね!
デートにも、家族にも、オススメです!
Yuhiken is a casual Japanese inn that offers simple accommodations with communal bathrooms. The establishment provides guests with a complimentary breakfast and an atmosphere of ease. The rooms are unpretentious and do not boast any extravagant amenities, but provide a comfortable stay nonetheless. Yuhiken focuses on providing its visitors with a down-to-earth experience, allowing them to unwind in the calm ambiance of the inn.
We have stayed for two nights and enjoyed a lot! The stay is hosted by family and they are very friendly. They introduced the place nearby and settled everything we need. The room is spacious with traditional Japanese style. The tatami bed is cleaner and more comfortable (compared with my past experience). The host gave me two postcards and they are really sweet!

I recommand 100%! Everything was perfect. The place itself is really beautiful: typical traditional japanese building. It was clean and nice. The kaiseki meals were delicious, and totally worth it for the price (4.400¥ for dinner and breakfast). The staff (a family) was extremely nice and helpful. They even offered to drive me to Takeda Station in the morning.

Thank you so much to Shuko-san and her wonderful mother for the most fantastic stay in their family-run guesthouse! The dinner and breakfast is a real highlight, with locally-brewed sake optional also. We felt right at home. Everything was perfect and it is one of the best minshuku we have ever stayed in Japan. 10/10. Thank you Shuko-san!

Stayed there during a short road trip around the area, booked the place on a very short notice and arrived pretty late. Everything was ready for us and the staff was really friendly. We didn't use a lot of amenities during our stay, but it looked like they had pretty good meals, maps of the area, really nice baths (both modern and more traditional style). Would stay there again if get a chance, the place was great.

Lovely guest house in Asago, great place to stay if planning on traveling to Takeda Castle. A bit difficult to find in the dark when we arrived, but someone was waiting for us in the parking lot to show us where to park! The family that runs the house is very friendly and helpful, when we stayed here our car rental place was trying to call us and they allowed us to use their phone. Lovely and rustic, would definitely stay here again.

Staying at Yuuhiken is an amazing experience in Japan. Everything is warm and cozy, traditional and genuine. Obasan and her daughter are so sweet that they helped me to put on my first kimono. Remember to try their meals during your stay. Since there is not much to do around the area at night, having a wonderful meal becomes the main highlight of the trip. Even though I didn’t get a very good view from the Tekeda Castle Ruin (not the best season), I feel so satisfied after staying at Yuuhiken. Will definitely stay again if I visit the area again.

Very nice Ryokan. Kind people and everything looked very neat and clean. Breakfast was great. There is a very nice Udon shop very close by (3 minutes walking) for lunch / dinner. For the kids they had beautiful yukata to wear in the evening.

Beautiful countryside ryokan. Well worth the detour north up a vintage train 2 hours from Himeji.
(Translated by Google) This is a valuable iron bridge made entirely of cast iron.
It seems that only a few places remain in the country.
It is said that horse-drawn carriages carrying ore used to come and go here.
Although it is a bridge that stands quietly in the middle of an empty mountain, even the handrails are extremely carefully constructed, and it still conveys the bustle of the Bashamichi area around Mikobata in the past.
It's part of the promenade, so if you have time, it might be a good idea to walk along the Bashamichi.
However, I don't think I could find any restrooms or vending machines nearby.

何もない山中にひっそりと佇む橋ですが、欄干一つ取っても非常に丁寧な作りで、往年の神子畑周辺の馬車道の賑わいを今に伝えてくれています。
遊歩道の一部となっているので、お時間のある方は馬車道を歩いてみるのも良いかもしれませんね。
ただし、お手洗いや自販機等は周辺には見当たらなかったと思います。

(Translated by Google) It is the oldest existing all-cast iron bridge in Japan.
[Explanation below]
The bridge is an arch bridge made of cast iron that spans the Mikobata River that flows through the Sasou district of Asago City, Hyogo Prefecture.The river is a tributary of the Maruyama River and flows east-west along National Route 429. In order to transport the ore extracted from the Mikobata Mine to the Ikuno Smelter in Ikuno, it took two years from 1883 to construct an approximately 16km ore transportation road. It is one of a group of iron bridges that were built as part of the construction of transportation routes for handcarts and oxcarts (in 1891, tracks for trolleys such as railway carriages were laid). It is said to be the oldest cast iron in Japan and was made at the Yokosuka Steel Works and shipped to Shikama by sea under the guidance of French engineers who were called in to develop the Ikuno Mine. It was done. This work was constructed by the Meiji government's Ministry of Works at a total cost of 40,000 yen.
There were four other bridges built, but only two remain today: Habuchi Cast Iron Bridge (a double arch bridge with a length of 18 m) and Mikobata Cast Iron Bridge. Along with Hachiman Bridge (formerly Danjo Bridge) in Tokyo, it was the first modern bridge to be designated as a national important cultural property on June 27, 1977. Due to its age, repairs were carried out over a year in 1982 with the aim of preserving it permanently. In 2007, it was designated as a Heritage of Industrial Modernization. It was also certified as a Japanese Heritage Site in 2017. This bridge is the oldest existing all-cast iron bridge in Japan. There is a parking lot near the bridge, and information boards about the bridge and mine are also available. There is also a promenade nearby where you can walk on the bridge.

日本に現存している全鋳鉄製の橋としては最も古い橋です。
【以下説明】
橋は兵庫県朝来市佐嚢(さのう)地区を流れる神子畑川(みこばた)に架かる鋳鉄でできたアーチ橋で、川は円山川の支流で国道429号沿いに東西に流れており、神子畑鉱山で採掘された鉱石を生野の生野精錬所まで輸送するため1883年から2年の歳月をかけて約16kmの鉱石運搬道路を建設。その運搬路建設の一環として手引車や牛車(1891年に鉄道馬車等のトロッコ用の線路が敷かれる)などのためにかけられた鉄橋群の一つである。鋳物で作られたものとしては日本では最古のもので横須賀製鉄所で作られ飾磨まで海輸し運ばれたとされ、生野鉱山の開発などで呼ばれたフランス人技師たちの指導のもと作られた。この工事は、明治政府の工部省が総工費4万円で建設した。
他に4箇所架けられていたが現存するのは羽淵鋳鉄橋(L=18mの2連のアーチ橋)と神子畑鋳鉄橋の2つだけとなっている。東京都の八幡橋(旧弾正橋)とともに、近代の橋梁としては初めて1977年6月27日に国の重要文化財に指定されている。老朽化のため1982年には一年かけて永久保存を目的として修繕が行われた。2007年に近代化産業遺産に認定された。また、2017年度には日本遺産にも認定されている。本橋は、日本に現存している全鋳鉄製の橋としては最も古い。橋の近くには駐車場があり、橋や鉱山の説明板も整備されている。近くには、遊歩道もあり橋の上を歩くこともできる。

(Translated by Google) I thought it was a car, but apparently it was transported by horse ^^; It was a cast iron bridge with a narrow road, but it is still beautifully preserved and spans the river. Although it is strong, it lacks elasticity and is brittle in places, causing it to break. We recommend that you visit this site together with the Mikobata Ore Sorting Plant Ruins.

(Translated by Google) It is said to be the oldest cast iron bridge in Japan.
There is a monument and a parking lot nearby, making it easy to visit.
I didn't know about its existence until I happened to be told about it by a local when I stopped by the Mikobata ore processing plant site, which has recently become famous on social media.
There was indeed a flag posted on the way from the national highway to the site of the ore processing plant, but you wouldn't notice it unless it was mentioned.
I think it should be made a little more noticeable.
Unless you are told, it is in such good condition that you would not know that such a valuable item had remained until this era, and you can even walk across it.
There's nothing wrong with crossing over, but just being able to touch an important cultural property was personally moving.
I think it is a wonderful heritage where you can feel the breath of civilization and enlightenment.

日本最古の鋳鉄橋、だそうです。

最近SNSで有名になった神子畑選鉱場跡に立ち寄った際偶然地元の方に教えてもらうまでその存在は知りませんでした。
国道から選鉱場跡に向かう途中、確かに幟があげてありましたが、言われないと気づかないですね。
もう少し目立つようにすればいいのにと思います。
言われないと、この時代までこんな貴重なものが遺っていたことはわからないくらい状態が良く、普通に歩いて渡ることも出来ます。
渡ったところでどうってこともないのですが、重要文化財に触れることが出来るだけでも個人的には感動モノでした。
文明開化の息吹を感じることの出来る素晴らしい遺産だと思います。

(Translated by Google) After the Mikobata mine was rediscovered in 1898 and fully opened in 1891, a road was needed to transport the ore, and a carriage road (mining road) was established between Mikobata and Ikuno, 16.2km long and 3.6m wide. was built and many bridges were built.
This construction was said to have been a major undertaking that began in 1896 and lasted for two years until 1888, at a total construction cost of 40,000 yen. The Mikobata Cast Iron Bridge was built when this carriage road crossed the Mikobata River.
Furthermore, all of the construction work was designed and executed by Japanese people, and this was largely due to the technical guidance provided by the French engineers who developed the Ikuno mine.
At that time, five bridges with different structures were built on the carriage road between Mikobata and Ikuno, but the existing ones are the Mikobata Cast Iron Bridge (a series of arches with a length of 16 m) and the Habuchi Cast Iron Bridge (a bridge with a length of 16 m). There are only two of them (a double arch bridge with a length of 18m), and both retain the appearance of beautiful Western-style bridges.
The Mikobata Cast Iron Bridge is said to be the third oldest existing iron bridge in Japan, but the first, Shinsaibashi in Osaka (built in 1896), was made of wrought iron, and the second, Danjo Bridge in Tokyo (built in 1891). is for mixed casting. Therefore, this cast iron bridge is the oldest bridge in Japan made entirely of cast iron.
In particular, the Mikobata Cast Iron Bridge is a transitional period in the history of Japanese bridges, where materials have evolved from wooden bridges and stone bridges to brick, and then to cast iron, wrought iron, and steel. The bridge itself is an extremely valuable cultural property with historical value as well as mechanical beauty.
(Original)
明治11年神子畑鉱山が再発見され、明治14年本格開坑以後、その鉱石運搬のために道路が必要となり、神子畑-生野間16.2Km、幅員3.6mの馬車道(鉱山道路)が建設され、多くの橋が架けられた。
この工事は明治16年に始まり、明治18年まで2年間にわたる総工事費4万円をかけた大工事であったとされる。この馬車道が神子畑川を横切るときに架けられたのが神子畑鋳鉄橋である。
また、工事すべての設計・施工はともに日本人となっているが、生野鉱山開発にあたったフランス人技師団の技術指導の結果によるところが大きい。
神子畑-生野間の馬車道には、当時それぞれ構造の異なる5つの橋が架けられていたが、現存するものは、神子畑鋳鉄橋(橋長16mの一連アーチ橋)と羽渕鋳鉄橋(橋長18mの二連アーチ橋)の二つのみであり、ともに美しい洋式橋の姿を残している。
神子畑鋳鉄橋は日本に現存する鉄橋としては三番目に古いとされるが、一番目の大阪の心斎橋(明治6年)は錬鉄製であり、二番目の東京の弾正橋(明治11年)は錬鋳混用である。したがって本鋳鉄橋は全鋳鉄製の橋としては日本最古の橋となる。
特に、木橋、石橋から煉瓦へ、さらに鋳鉄、錬鉄、鋼鉄へと発展してきた材質からみた日本橋梁史の流れのなかで神子畑鋳鉄橋は、その過渡期的なものであり鋳鉄橋発展史上最終段階のものとしての意味からも歴史的に価値があり、力学的な美しさを持った大変貴重な文化財としての橋そのものである。
