Ukimido Pavilion

Temple
"An unusual Buddhist temple built on Shibayama Lagoon in the Katayamazu Onsen hot spring village. Connected to the shore by a bridge, the temple is also known by its nickname, the ""Ukiuki Benten"" (""Floating Benten Temple""). Legend has it that when a huge serpent was laying waste to the lakes of Katayamazu, Bhaisajyaguru sent the goddess Benten to suppress it, and in connection with this story, the temple is dedicated to the dragon king and Benten. A large fountain system has been built out on the lack behind the temple; the fountain, along with the bridge and temple, are lit up at night, creating a magical atmosphere."

  • 片山津温泉のシンボルの一つ

    片山津温泉の柴山潟に浮かぶお堂。桟橋を渡って参拝することができる。天気が良ければきっと気持ちのいい散策が楽しめるはずだが、訪問時はあいにくの天気でちょっと残念だった。
  • 琵琶を持った娘の像が有ります

    柴山潟の沖に有るお堂です。最後の桟橋だけ可動ですが、他は固定されているので安全に行けます。この地には「竜神と娘」の伝説が有り、お堂の中には琵琶を持った娘の像が祀られていました。

    桟橋を歩いて渡るとお堂があり、温泉伝説の竜神様と弁財天様が祀られています。背後には高さ70mの大噴水があります。夜になると大噴水がライトアップされ、美しも幻想的な光景が現れます。
