Shimizu-no-tateba teahouse 清水立場

There once was a rest place called Shimizu-no-tateba
just down the hill from 谷保天神社 Yaho Tenjin-no-yashiro Shrine.
This area boasts one of the best water springs in Yaho and it is said that in summer,
people treated travelers coming and going on the Kōshū Highway under the burning sun
with soba and somen noodles dipped in the cold-water spring.
