Hot spring in mine
 |
| Hot spring It was said that the hot spring of "Toi" was first welled up from the gold mine in those days. The hot spring was the most pleasant place for miners to soothe their fatigue after a hard working day. |
The people worked outside like this.
Let's go to the gold mine museum next.
Long time ago there used to be a lot of gold mines in Izu peninsula.
There was a gold mine in the mountain on the other side of Pension Sakuraya.
During Edo period they worked to get gold from the ore like this.
12.5kg Gold It's very heavy
Look at that!
We can touch it through the hole.
There are many kinds of ore from all of the world.
Golden Maneki-neko Golden lucky cat
What does it mean "Maneki neko"?
