伊豆山神社と走り湯

宿の前の坂を下り切り国道を左に、少し歩くと朱塗りの欄干の「逢初橋」(あいぞめばし)があります。これを過ぎ、信号機のある横断歩道の下手が「走り湯」、上手が伊豆山神社への参道です。まずは下手へ下ってみましょう。石段を下りてゆくと伊豆山温泉郷の源泉で1300年の歴史をもつ古湯「走り湯」があり、奥行5mの洞窟から今も70度の湯が毎分170リットル湧き出ています。宿からも遠くないので、散歩がてらぜひ見ていってください。
走り湯の見学を終えたら、もと来た石段を一番上まで上り詰めると、頼朝・政子ゆかりの古社、伊豆山神社の鳥居が見えてきます。ここは源頼朝と北条政子の出会いの地でもあります。静かなお社の中ほどには二人が腰を掛けたといわれる「腰掛石」もあります。男女の縁結びを叶えてくれるという、ここの神様にすがる「一名恋祭り」という神事が古くはあり、各地から集まった若い男女の参列を得て行われていたことが伝えられています。

If you go down the slope in front of the inn and turn left and walk a little along the route 135 , you can see “Aizome-bashi” bridge which is painted in vermilion. Going over the bridge , you will see the underlying pedestrian crossing with traffic lights. The descending way is to “Hashiri yu”, and ascending way is to Izusan Shrine. First of all, let’s go down to the lower hand. When you go down the stone steps, there is an old hot spring “Hashiri yu” with a history of 1,300 years at the source of Izusan Hot Spring Village, and 170 liters 70℃ of hot water still gushes out every minute from the cave of 5 m in the depth. It is not far from the inn, so please take a walk and see it. After the tour of the Hashiri yu , you should go up the stone steps that came to the top, you will see the torii gate of Izusan Shrine, an old shrine related to Yoritomo and Masako. This is the very place where Yoritomo Minamoto and Masako Hojo have met undercover. There is a “stool stone” in the middle of a quiet shrine. They say that it is the place where the ancient lovers have told through the night .It is said that there was an old shinto ceremony that prayed to the gods the marriage between men and women may come true, and it is said that it was held with the attendance of young men and women gathered from various places of Japan.
