Hideyo Noguchi (1876-1928), a guy on the current 1,000 yen banknote, was a prominent Japanese bacteriologist who in 1911 discovered the agent of Syphilis as the cause of progressive paralytic disease. He studied at Univ. of Philadelphia and Rockefeller Institute of Medical Research in the U.S.A. and was later nominated several times for the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. Noguchi, however, traveled extensively in Central America and South America working with the International Health Board to conduct research to develop a vaccine for yellow fever, and to research Oroya fever, poliomyelitis and trachoma. Then, he was suddenly infected with yellow fever and died. When he was 1.5 years old, he fell into a fireplace and suffered a severe burn injury on his left hand. Because of his story of overcoming physical handicap and later contributing to world medicine, he has become a role model in Japan. His Memorial Museum was built in Inawashiro, Fukushima Prefcture, where he was born. It covers his whole story from his childhood to his becoming the world scientist. It's a nice place to visit if you come to this area.

Even it was a very hot day, you could already feel the cool air at the parking lot, wich was about 3minutes walk away from the waterfall. Odaki(male fall) is larger and water falls down strongly.
Medaki(female fall) water falls quietly and softly.
This place must be amazingly beautiful in autumn when maple trees are burninng red!! Great photogenic spot!

雪景色が素晴らしかったです。晴れた日だったので、白く包まれた神社がきれいでした。参道の階段が雪で滑りやすくなっていて、社殿まで行くのは大変でした。

新しい道の駅ということで覗いてみました。ショップはお土産がメインで、野菜は少なめ。伝統工芸品や馬刺しなども売っており、ここに来ればこの地域の名物は一通り手に入るという印象。軽食も充実していました。

猪苗代湖畔にある、旧有栖川宮家の別邸。洋館建築で、建物内の暖炉やシャンデリアなど、当時のものが残っており、鏡や家具などは、当時のものに復元展示されています。戦前の皇室の華やかな生活の一端がうかがえます。

水族館まで行かない「猪苗代緑の村」の駐車場のすぐ横に立派な古典的な駅舎とかわいらしい機関車と客車の展示があり、鉄道ファンなら遠路からでも訪問する価値がある。
猪苗代湖畔の川桁から沼尻までを結んでいた沼尻鉄道で使われていた機関車と客車2両が保存されている。沼尻といえば・・・のあのガソリンカーは展示されていない。ディーゼル機関車は協三工業製（あのディズニーランドのウェスタンリバー鉄道の蒸気機関車を作ったメーカであり、ナローゲージの機関車製作で定評がある）。客車は2両で、車内は手を伸ばせば天井に手が届き、また両手を広げるとちょうど車体の内寸に達するほどの小さい車両である。屋根が差し掛けられているため、保存状態は比較的よい。
近くに移築されている旧翁島駅駅舎は大正時代に作られたもので貴賓室も備えた立派なつくりであり、今は蕎麦屋として営業している。こちらも一見の価値がある。
