70 minutes from Ikebukuro using the limited express, I took some picture of the “Ashigakubo Ice Pillar” light-up event near “Ashigakubo Station” in Yokoze Town, Chichibu District, Saitama.
Chichibu City, Saitama Prefecture, which is close to the city center and has good access. It is a popular spot where you can enjoy the appearance of nature in each of the four seasons, but do you know the “Three Great Ice Pillars of Chichibu”? It is an art of ice formed by freezing spring water that exudes from the rock surface. You can enjoy it between the beginning of January and the end of February when the temperature drops.
We will deliver the most accessible “Ashigakubo Ice Pillar” from the three locations of “30 Hammer Ice Pillar”, “Ashigakubo Ice Pillar”, and “Onouchi Valley Ice Pillar”.
There are some places that are out of reach, but there are also spots that you can appreciate up close. I think it’s fun to find each favorite shape.
The color of the light up changes at regular intervals. I think that the scenery changes as the color of the light changes.
In addition, there is an area where you can take a tripod, so you can leave your favorite photos.
