What is the meaning of "Izu Hot Spring" in the song Snow?

Hot springs, seafood, local products, history and nature, Izu is a place full of various charms. In Tiancheng Mountain and inland areas, it sometimes snows in winter, but in coastal areas and southern Izu, the climate is warm and bloom gets up early, competing to tell us that spring is coming.

Izu dancer

I wonder if you have seen the movie Dancer Izu, which is starring Yamaguchi Momoe and Tomokazu Miura and has been performed by other actors many times. The original text is the short story Izu Dancer published by Yasunari Kawabata, the first Japanese Nobel Prize in Literature writer, on 1926. The novel describes a 20-year-old "I" (it seems to be Kawabata Yasunari himself), a student of an old Japanese high school, who had a first love story with a dancer of 14 years old while traveling in Ito Tiancheng Mountain. This story happened on the stage of Izu, like novels and movies, left a heavy mark on the history of Japanese literature and attracted many people to Izu.

In the novel, "I" and the dancer once walked through the "Yongzi Path", starting from the Lotus Waterfall of Tiancheng Mountain, passing through the Tiancheng Mountain Tunnel (also known as "the tunnel of Heaven") and the "Seven Dragons of Hejin" (attached: "Seven Dragons" means seven waterfalls in Japanese), and finally arrived in Tang Ye, with a total length of 2,648.

Tangdao hot spring

Tiancheng Mountain runs through the Izu Peninsula and divides Izu into two parts, namely North Izu and South Izu. Tangdao is located at the southernmost tip of the northern foothills of Tiancheng Mountain, surrounded by beautiful cedar forests. The endless Kanye River here forms a deep valley, and the river is crystal clear, with large pieces of mustard planted by the stream. This area has been loved by many literati since ancient times. Indeed, the Tangbenguan Hotel in Tangdao is also the place where Kawabata Yasunari chose to write Izu Dancer.

Jinglian Waterfall

Jinglian Waterfall is the largest waterfall in Izu, with a drop of 25 meters. There are many mustard fields nearby, and there are also many places where people can enjoy fishing. Because the water is so clean, it is most suitable for the growth of mustard and grouper.

Jiutiancheng tunnel

The tunnel was completed on 1905, with a total length of 446 meters. It is also the tunnel that Kawabata Yasunari's "I" and Izu dancers once walked together.

Hejin riding a dragon

Go through the old Tiancheng tunnel and walk for about 2 hours to reach the entrance of Hejin Qiling. There are dancers and bronze statues of me. The reason why it is called "Seven Dragons" here is that there are seven waterfalls flowing from the upstream, namely, kettle dragon, shrimp dragon, snake dragon, first Jinglong, crab dragon, Chuhelong and Dalong, which form an excellent hiking route. Dalong is the earliest waterfall among the Seven Dragons, and it is also the location of famous hot springs. There are as many as 28 hot spring baths in Tianchengzhuang Hotel, especially enjoying the 30-meter-high tower while soaking in hot springs, which is really refreshing. You can't wear clothes in hot springs in Japan, but the open-air hot springs in Tianchengzhuang allow shy guests to choose bathing suits. Qilong Hot Spring flows out along the upstream valley, which is really a magical and beautiful place.

Tang Ye Hot Springs and Futian Hotel

After a walk of 1 hour, you arrive at Tangye Hot Spring, which is located at the end of Yongzi Trail. There are many hot spring hotels along Hejinchuan, including Futian Hotel, which is the place where pure love between me and dancers germinates. The wooden structure seems to take you to the era of dancers. There are photos of Hibari Misora, Sayuri Yoshinaga, Yamaguchi Momoe and Kawabata Yasunari appearing as "dancers" in the porch corridor, while the portraits of Izu dancers are placed at the entrance of the hotel.

The bath in the hotel can be used, and many tourists prefer to walk along the path of Songchuan about 1 km to see the beautiful scenery of Donghai Pavilion on the other side.

Although Yidu Plateau is located in Yidong City, it has a completely different charm from Yidong. In the past, Yidou was a quiet retreat, with villas and retreats. Now it has become an art plateau, with art galleries and galleries. From the 580-meter-high Otsuka Mountain, you can see Izu Seven Islands and Mount Fuji. There is gas bearing on the coast, and there is a cliff on the coast of Luoshuiwan, which is about 20 kilometers long. It is a natural art formed by lava flowing into the sea when Dafang and Tiancheng Mountains are burning fire. The hiking route is clear, the facilities are complete, and the deep blue ocean with suspension bridge is quite beautiful.

Hejin, which is famous for its cherry blossoms, is also a famous hot spring area, including Hejin Qilong and Tang Ye Hot Springs. Hejin Sakura, which blooms at the end of 1, is the earliest cherry blossom in Japan.

Tufei is the oldest and largest hot spring town on the west coast of Izu, and it is also an excellent place to enjoy the sunset scenery of Mount Fuji. It is said that lovers will definitely go to the "lover's corner" and stand in the "lover's corner". If the weather is fine, you can see Mount Fuji. Walk along the romantic corridor of Suruga Bay to the top of the "Lovers' Corner", where couples line up to ring the "Love Bell". The sunset glow dyed the ocean red, the cape turned golden, and the outline of lovers floated.

A gravel road extends along the bamboo forest by the river, where people can enjoy peace and tranquility quietly.

Tian Tang Cheng Island

Tianchengtang Road is a stage for Izu dancers, and many writers have been there.

Seafood, mountain products.

Fresh seafood is one of the famous products of Izu. The Izu Peninsula is surrounded by the sea on three sides and is rich in seafood. Beautiful golden-eyed snapper, sweet and fresh abalone, squid, Yi Shi shrimp, perch, conch and bamboo? Fish etc. If you have the opportunity, you must go to the morning market to see all kinds of fresh fish and vibrant markets. The most active izu in autumn and winter is Yi Shi shrimp, eaten raw or cooked, and the cooked miso soup is also delicious. Shrimp meat is elastic and quite delicious.

Sashimi made from freshly caught fish is better than any kind of hospitality, and dried fish is almost as strong as sashimi. Because the fish caught in the morning are cut, cleaned and dried on the spot, the freshness is excellent. Dried fish is formed after the fish is dried for about 3 hours. This kind of dried fish is mostly used for breakfast in Laopu Hot Spring Hotel. After baking, it has a strong aroma and should be regarded as the best appetizer.

Speaking of mountain products, it belongs to wild boar hot pot. Tiancheng Mountain, Tangdao Island and Hejin are blessed with wild boars. The best period is 165438+ 10 to March. Pork, onions, radishes and mushrooms are cooked in miso, which is delicious.
