Jigokudani Observatory1 Reviews
Oni Hanabi (Demon's Firework) is a limited event on Thursdays and Fridays at Noboribetsu Onsen hot spring town. The demons appear from the darkness and dance for exorcism as a back ground of Jigokudani (Hell Valley). At the climax of the how, they spark the very strong fire works in hands! Together with the hot spring. it could be a great experience of your summer.◎This show is taken place on only Thursdays and Fridays, and not on weekends!

Entsu'u-in Temple2 Reviews
Entsu'u-in Temple has just started the light-up of autumn colored trees. Though the trees remains green, the lights change its colors and makes good mood. I think momiji (Japanese maple tree) reflected on the water mirror will dye in red from now and fascinate us with its beautiful autumn colors.◎Addmission fee: 500 yen

In the area of stalls, the cherry blossom was lit up in fancy colors. The reflections on the Natsui River was also beautiful! For the stalls, it was bustle with people, and I felt it like a summer festival, though it's spring.◎By car, 15 min from Ono IC of Ban'etsu Speedway. From JR Natsui Station, it takes 5 min walk.
