Owakudani Valley


owakudani_01.jpg

Owakudani Valley, used be called Jigokudani (“the Valley of Hell”) via Hakone ropeway. It is volcanic valley, so you could see thermal volcanic pools. You have to eat Kuro-Tamago (black boiling egg) there.

The eggs are cooked in the area’s thermal heat sources. If you eat one, your life is supposed to be extended by 7 more years, so legends say anyway.

So if you eat two of them you should have 14 years more life! Obviously this is just a legend and probably not true.
