長野県のトップ１００温泉の調査の中で、とんでもない遠いところまで冒険しています。が、今回は我が亀清旅館の最も近い温泉施設：　湯の華銭湯 瑞祥　上山田本館。亀清旅館から歩いて１分。瑞祥は戸倉上山田温泉の７つの外湯の中で一番設備がそろっていて、一番湯船の種類が多い。料金は一番高い（６５０円/大人）ですが、それなりに設備や湯船が充実しています。
大浴場の岩風呂　←湯口のお湯は飲泉ＯＫ！
ジェットバス
薬石露天風呂　←温泉かけながし！
陶器風呂２つ
寝湯
沢山の種類のおふろ。サウナも付いている。
そして、お風呂以外はほぐし処及び食事処がある。（そば打ち道場もあるので瑞祥さんの手打ちそばがお勧め。）

今回はちょっと特別でカメラが許されたから写真を提供させて頂きます。

戸倉上山田温泉にお越しになる時、
宿泊は是非、亀清旅館に；
立ち寄り湯又は宿泊際の外湯はちょっと贅沢なお勧めかもしれませんが瑞祥さんにどうぞ、お入りになってみてください。上山田の単純硫黄泉なので、お湯もばっちり！

In my relentless research of Nagano Prefecture's Top 100 Onsens, I've been to some pretty far away places. But this time, I went to the one closest to us here at Kamesei Ryokan -- Zuisho.
Located literally just across the street from us, Zuisho is one of 7 public bathhouses in our onsen town Togura-Kamiyamada. It is the priciest at 650 yen for adults, but Zuisho is by far the most extensively appointed bathhouse and has the largest variety of baths:
"Iwa-buro" indoor bath featuring rare green and red-hued boulders, (The onsen water pouring into this bath is drinkable)
Jet-bath,
'Medicine-rock' outdoor bath whose special rocks add a milky feel to the onsen water, (This bath's onsen water is 100% free-flowing)
"Ne-Yu" outdoor bath which is enjoyed while laying down,
Two ceramic baths,
A third ceramic bath with normal water for a hot-cold treatment.
There is also sauna, too.

Besides the baths, Zuisho also has a complete massage facilities as well as cafeteria that features soba noodles hand-made on the premises.

This time I went I received special permission to take pictures, hence these photographs.

So if you come to our onsen town Togura-Kamiyamada,
for spending the night I suggest our inn Kamesei,
but for daytrippers or people who want to try multiple baths, Zuisho is a luxurious option.
