Former Hanada Family Banya

This is the only herring banya designated as an important cultural property! The largest of its kind in Hokkaido!

Do you know the word nishin kuki? It is a phenomenon where herring in the spawning season come to the coast in large groups, and it was seen every year until the 1945s. Today, it is no longer possible to observe this phenomenon, but you can feel the atmosphere of the period when herring fishing was active at the roadside station Obira Nishin Banya (open all year round). Why don't you sit at the entrance to the tatami room and relive the excitement of the bygone days?
