This footbath was constructed when JR Ogoto Station was renamed as Ogoto-onsen Station on March 15, 2008. Tradition says that Ogoto-onsen was discovered by Denkyo Daishi Saicho, the founder of Enryaku-ji Temple on Mt. Hiei. The building is designed to recall a hexagonal hall located in Hayao Jizoson, where stone jizo statues (guardian deities of children) allegedly made by Saicho, are enshrined.
The source of the Kamo River flowing into Lake Biwa, the underground water of the Hira mountain range, and the pristine air.No vending machines, and the sounds you hear are the chirping of small birds in the morning, the buzzing of cicadas during the day, and the croaking of frogs at night.Terraced rice fields spread out in a place with an altitude difference of 100 meters.Houses are scattered as if watching over these terraced rice fields.At the very bottom of the terraced rice fields is the Tanada House.Spending time at Tanada House will make you reflect on what luxurious living truly means.
