【国内に唯一現存する 重要文化財の湯宿】萬翠楼 福住 箱根湯本温泉 / 神奈川県 箱根町

神奈川県 箱根湯本温泉 萬翠楼 福住に投宿してきました。 箱根湯本は、箱根七湯の玄関口として古くから旅人や湯治客を迎えてきた温泉地。東海道から程近く江戸時代には多くの人々がこの地で旅の疲れを癒してきました。 その中でも萬翠楼 福住は、寛永2年(1625年)創業、箱根では数軒しかない家族経営を続ける超老舗宿です。箱根かごかき唄に「晩の泊まりは箱根か三島 ただし湯本の福住か」と唄われたほど、古くから名宿として知られてきました。 その発展を支えたのは明治初期 10代当主の・福住正兄(まさえ)。彼は二宮尊徳の門下として学び、当時の福住を再興しただけでなく箱根の発展に尽力。“箱根近代化の立役者”と言える存在でした。福沢諭吉とも親交が深く、正兄との議論を経た福沢諭吉の論説もまたの箱根の発展そのものに大きな影響を与えました。老舗旅館が多く残る箱根湯本の盟主的な旅館と言えるでしょう。 正兄は福住復興後「萬翠楼」と「金泉楼」を建設。西洋建築と数寄屋造りを融合させた先進的な擬洋風建築は、温泉宿として初めて国の重要文化財に指定されました。 高い見識と人脈から、福住には木戸孝允、伊藤博文、西郷隆盛ら明治の要人たちが数多く滞在。木戸孝允が「萬翠楼」の名を贈ったことでも知られています。また徳川慶喜が初めて宿泊した宿とも知られ、更に「旅館」という言葉は福住が初めて使用したとの話が残るほど。日本の旅館業界において最も影響を与えた旅館の一つと言えるでしょう。 明治維新と文明開化の熱気が漂う時代、政治家や文化人たちがこの宿で語り合い、交流していたことを想像するたまらない気持ちになりました。 今回宿泊したのは当館を代表する 萬翠楼15号室。 特徴的な格天井には花鳥風月など48枚の画が描かれています。また屋久杉や黒壇などの自然木を活かした柱や、柱の曲がりに合わせて微妙に曲線を描く建具など、当時の職人技術の高さが美しいです。 温泉はすべて源泉掛け流し。毎分160リットルの湯が湧出し“真綿の湯”とも称される柔らかな湯ざわりは、箱根湯本らしい優しさに満ちています。 一円の湯、扇の湯共にモダンタイルの美しい大正モダンな雰囲気と岩・木造の露天風呂の風情を楽しむ湯。 食事は箱根や相模湾の旬を取り入れた正統派の日本料理。一品一品が丁寧に調理され出汁のうまみを取った優しい味は胃に染みる料理でした。歴史ある建築と向き合いながら味わう食事の時間もまた、この宿の大切な魅力の一つだと思います。 建築、温泉、そして近代日本を形作った人々の記憶。日本の旅館文化そのものに泊まるような感覚を味わえる萬翠楼 福住。また季節を変え訪れたいと思っています。 撮影にご協力いただいた女将さん、スタッフの皆さま、ありがとうございました。 __________________________ ■ 萬翠楼 福住 https://www.2923.co.jp/ ■温泉詳細 アルカリ性単純温泉 源泉掛け流し ■日本の重要文化財宿 5軒 (重要文化財 指定空間に泊まれる宿) 萬翠楼福住 (福住旅館 萬翠楼) / 神奈川県 東京ステーションホテル (東京駅丸ノ内本屋) /東京都 THE TOWER HOTEL NAGOYA (名古屋テレビ塔) / 愛知県 旧相馬家 Kazeno Heritage (旧相馬家住宅) / 北海道 鈴木宿 (鈴木家住宅) / 秋田県 __________________________________________________________________ 動画内の一部情報はネットによる情報収集に基づいています。 温泉の撮影について許可を頂いています。 #vlog #onsen #ryokan #japan Bansuiro Fukuzumi in Hakone Yumoto Onsen, in Kanagawa. Hakone Yumoto is a hot spring resort that has long welcomed travelers and those seeking therapeutic baths, serving as the gateway to the seven hot springs of Hakone. Located close to the Tokaido road, it was a popular resting place for travelers during the Edo period. Among these, Bansuirou Fukuzumi, founded in 1625, is one of the few family-run inns in Hakone that continues to operate. It has long been known as a renowned inn, as evidenced by the Hakone palanquin bearer's song, "For the night, will you stay in Hakone or Mishima, or Fukuzumi in Yumoto?" Its development was supported by the 10th generation owner, Masae Fukuzumi, in the early Meiji era. He studied under Ninomiya Sontoku and not only revived the Fukuzumi of the time but also contributed significantly to the development of Hakone. He can be considered a key figure in the modernization of Hakone. He had a close relationship with Yukichi Fukuzawa, and Fukuzawa's theories, developed through discussions with Masanori, also had a significant influence on the development of Hakone itself. It can be said that Fukuzumi is a leading inn in Hakone Yumoto, an area with many long-established inns. After the reconstruction of Fukuzumi, Masanori built "Bansuiro" and "Kinzenro." These innovative pseudo-Western style buildings, blending Western architecture with traditional Japanese sukiya-zukuri style, were the first hot spring inns to be designated as important national cultural properties. Due to his high level of expertise and connections, many important figures of the Meiji era, such as Takayoshi Kido, Hirobumi Ito, and Takamori Saigo, stayed at Fukuzumi. It is also known that Takayoshi Kido bestowed the name "Bansuirou" upon the inn. Furthermore, it is known as the first inn where Tokugawa Yoshinobu stayed, and there is even a story that the word "ryokan" was first used at Fukuzumi. It can be said that it is one of the most influential inns in the Japanese inn industry. It was an irresistible feeling to imagine politicians and cultural figures conversing and interacting at this inn during the fervent era of the Meiji Restoration and modernization. This time, I stayed in Room 15 of the Bansuirou, the inn's signature room. The distinctive coffered ceiling is adorned with 48 paintings depicting flowers, birds, wind, and the moon. The pillars, made from natural wood such as Yakusugi cedar and ebony, and the subtly curved fittings that follow the curves of the pillars, beautifully showcase the high level of craftsmanship of the time. All the hot springs are free-flowing from the source. More than 160 liters of water gush out naturally every minute, and the soft texture, sometimes called "silk floss," is full of the gentleness characteristic of Hakone Yumoto. The meals are authentic Japanese cuisine incorporating seasonal ingredients from Hakone and Sagami Bay. Each dish is carefully prepared, and the gentle flavors, enhanced by the umami of the broth, were truly comforting. The dining experience, enjoyed while surrounded by historic architecture, is also one of the important charms of this inn. The architecture, the hot springs, and the memories of the people who shaped modern Japan—Bansuirou Fukuzumi offers a feeling of staying in the very essence of Japanese inn culture. I would like to visit again in a different season.
