(Higashimatsuyama City, Saitama Prefecture) to hold “Capybara Onsen” four times from December to February, delivering the source water from Tamagawa Onsen to capybaras. At the Saitama Prefectural Children’s Zoo, which is a 15-minute drive from Tamagawa Onsen, every year during the cold season, capybara baths using warmed water are held called “Capybara Onsen.” We will carry the source water from Tamagawa Onsen there and present it to the capybaras. In addition, the regularly held “Director’s Drawing Guide” event will be held as the “Capybara Hot Spring Edition.” To give a gift from Tamagawa Onsen, have a picture of a capybara drawn on thinned cypress wood from Tamagawa Town and float it in the capybara hot spring. After seeing the capybara that looks so comfortable taking a hot spring bath, I would like you to come to Tamagawa Onsen and enjoy the natural hot springs.
