My #Japan #Tokyo Travel (Part 8) #Icicles #of #Misotsuchi
Walk out from Mitsumineguchi station, Saitama and go to Bus station is opposite of the station, take a Seibu bus to Mitsumine Shrine. The “Chichibu Free Ticket(Japan Call:秩父フリーきっぷ)” cannot use on the bus transport; you must pay 340yen (PASMO Card can use). NOTE: The bus runs every 1 hour or so. You must get off the bus at the “Sanjuba(三十場)” bus stop.
We over-looks Mount Buko which were covered in deep snow. Look and follow for the sign “Mitsotsuchi no Tsurara (三十槌の氷柱) walk a while and reach our final destination “Icicles of Mitsotsuchi”. One of the famous in winter scenes of Saitama is the icicles of Mitsotsuchi, nature brought a special gifts to us.

Wow, amazing Scenes。
Because of the extreme cold temperature during winter, the spring water on the rock surface from the mountains gets frozen as it flows down and turns into gigantic icicles. It also calls as Ice Edition of Stalactites. A height of about 8m, is a large ice of objects that also becomes a width of about 30m .It is a huge natural in the Arakawa riverbed of Otaki,Chichibu city, Saitama Prefecture.

winter time without coat and enjoy the weather

Somebody say it look like curtain but for us we think it look like stalactites.

Except icicle you can see the mountain. If at another season i think it will be another gorgeous scenery.
Enjoy your view for gorgeous and natural scenery which are change appearance in every year. You only can enjoy this spectacular view every year from the middle of January to the late February, most cold weather in one year. There is a small market outside of Icicles and they provide an old fashioned iron stove for visitor, let everyone get warm.

The icicle under the sun and take note lower right corner got rainbow.

I love the snow so much again.
The icicles of Mitsotsuchi light up at night, the light transitions into different colors. It would bring out other beautiful of scene. REMEBER if you want view the lit up, you should expect to get back by a cab or prepare your own transport because the last bus back to the station is around 5pm.
Because of we want go to another viewpoint, take the bus to the Mitsumineguchi station at the noon. To be Continue……

我的#日本 #东京 之旅 (Part 8) #三十槌の氷柱
从埼玉县三峰口站出来,车站只有一处验票口。出了车站对面就是要搭乘的公車站然后乘坐西武公共汽车到三明神社。秩父自由乘车券(日文名稱:秩父フリーきっぷ)」沒有辦法使用,所以需要购买车票下车時付费,车费是340日元(可以使用PASMO或Suica支付)。注意:巴士每一小只有一趟。您必须在“Sanjuba(三十场)”巴士站下车。
我们俯瞰被深雪覆盖 的Buko山,何等的壮观及漂亮。下巴士后请跟着“Mitsotsuchi no Tsurara(三十槌の冰柱)”的标志走,走一小段路后我们终于到达我们的目的地三十槌の氷柱。在冬季埼玉着名景点的之一就是三十槌の氷柱,那是大自然送给我们的礼物。

Wow,Spectacular scenery!!
由于冬季极端寒冷的气温,从三十槌的绝壁中涌出的流水在寒冷的气温下便会逐渐结冻,进而形成壮观的冰版的钟乳石。它高度有8公尺左右,最宽也有到50公尺左右。琦玉县秩父市泷之川的荒川河床是一个巨大的自然景观。

Haha, two sisters selfie again.
看大自然的鬼釜神功及每年都在变化的华丽自然景色让人不禁叹为观止。这个壮观的景色每年只能在一年中最寒冷的天气;1月中旬到2月下旬才能欣赏到。在冰柱外还有一个小市场,同时游客提供了一个老式的铁炉让大家取取暖。

I wish to see the light transitions into different colors at night and it will be so beautiful.
到了晚上,三十槌の氷柱就会亮起五彩缤纷的灯,那时又是另一番景色。切记如果你想看晚上的景色,你必须自备交通或者只能搭德士回去因为这儿的巴士最迟时间是到五点。

Bus station opposite Mitsumineguchi station, Saitama
因为我们想要去另一个景点,所以在中午时就乘搭巴士到Mitsumineguchi站了。未完待续……
