Lake Akan origin's hand bath

Overview

In Akan Lake Hot Spring Town, there is a place that is said to be the origin of hand baths that have currently spread to various places nationwide. One of them, the hand bath next to "Kato-ri Folk Craft Shop," is a rock-built hot water basin. Also, the "Owl (fukurou) Hand Bath" located in front of the similarly folk craft shop "Kankou-dou" nearby, is one that has accumulated hot spring water in the hollow of an elm tree. The name "Owl" is derived from "Blakiston's Fish Owl," which is the guardian deity of the kotan.
