Episode 38 - Sulphur Hill















This photo was taken at Iouzan (Sulphur Hill) of Hokkaido.

After visiting Lake Mashu, we followed the road sign and drove for about 15 minutes to reach this point of interest.

The weather was exceptionally good in the area. The temperature was however a little bit high due to the hot and active sulphur.
















As you can see from the picture below, local people make use of the hot sulphur to boil eggs and sell them to the visitors.















The site has carparking spaces for car travellers. There is also a railway station nearby (20 minutes' walk according to local guide book). A good place to visit.
