Michi-no-Eki Shikabe Kanketsusen Koen しかべ間歇泉公園
The star of Shikabe Geyser Park is the geyser itself, erupting without pause for nearly 100 years — and this is said to be the only place in Japan where you can watch it while soaking your feet in a footbath. Built around hot springs and seafood, the station has a restaurant, farm market and shop, with parking for 40 cars and 6 large vehicles.
