Getting there is fairly convenient. It’s about a five-minute bus ride from the station, and overall the trip was pretty smooth.

Hotel Green Plaza Hamanako
Set along the calm shores of Lake Hamana, this resort hotel is renowned for its beautiful views. Guests can enjoy sweeping lake vistas not only from their rooms, but also from the open-air baths and restaurant. The scenic open-air bath offers a relaxing soak while gazing out over the tranquil lake. The hot spring is a sodium-calcium chloride spring, slightly salty in nature, known for retaining warmth and being gentle on the skin.
The lake view is really nice. The scenery of Lake Hamana from the room is super relaxing and soothing.

Kifune Shrine
Located along the Kibune River at the foot of Mt. Kibune in Sakyo Ward, Kyoto City, the shrine is the head shrine of about 2,000 water god shrines in Japan, and enshrines the deity Taka-okamino-kami, who controls water. The exact date of establishment is unknown, but there is a record of the rebuilding of the shrine in the 6th year of Hakuho (677), during the reign of Emperor Temmu, making it one of the oldest shrines in Japan with a history of over 1,300 years.
This is a really special place. Walking inside, I felt so refreshed in both body and mind. It's an amazing spot with great energy.

Zenkoji Temple
This historical large-scaled temple is about 59,000 square meters (about 5.9 ha) and was founded 1400 years ago. Many Buddhist facilities fill the compound. Some of them are; Daikanjin and Daihongan (they are also independent temples), and guests' quarters. This temple was founded at a specific time before the various subsects of Buddhism came into being. Some of the worshippers were those with power at the time, such as Minamoto no Yoritomo and Tokugawa Ieyasu , as well as the common people.
The atmosphere inside the temple is solemn and peaceful. It really calms your mind. I love how everything here feels so beautiful.
