雪景色は飽きない Never Tire of Snowy Scenes

February 23, 2013: 季節 Seasons

Kamesei's naka-niwa garden with snow

この冬は雪景色が続きそう。亀清旅館の中庭はまた白くなりました。この美しさを見るのは飽きない。特に我が宿はこの中庭を始め、離れ風の部屋の小庭や所々の坪庭、「100年風呂」と「しなの風呂」の2つの露天風呂の庭、雪がかぶればまた格別に綺麗になる。特に、100年風呂は屋根がないので、雪が降る時に入ると顔にちらちらと…

亀清旅館: 雪景色の合う宿!

How can one ever get tired of seeing a beautiful winter scene like this? This year has seen a lot more snow than usual, so we have been treated to these type of crystal white scenes a lot. Kamesei Ryokan, with its nakaniwa central garden (pictured), the small gardens of the hanare-fu semi-detached guestrooms, pocket gardens throughout, and the gardens for our two of our outdoor baths, all of these gardens make for a naturally beautiful setting for when it snows. And you can't beat soaking in our 100-Year Bath as the snowflakes fall on your face.

Kamesei Ryokan -- perfect for enjoying snowy scenes.



Snow Falling on Sarashina

亀清旅館の周り、この戸倉上山田温泉、千曲川、周辺の山々も雪景色で綺麗です。写真は佐良志奈神社の入口の風情です。

Not just our inn, but our onsen town Togura-Kamiyamada and the Chikuma River as well the surrounding mountains also look extra beautiful when it snows. Pictured is the entrance to Sarashina Shrine. It reminds me of the novel "Snow Falling on Cedars" whose setting is close to my hometown of Seattle.
