Public Bath “Matsu-no-yu” beside Railroad Crossing of Keio Line
The building beyond the railroad crossing has a chimney. It is a public bath named “Matsu-no-yu.” A pine tree exists in front of the building. Probably the name “Matsu (pine tree) no (of) Yu (hot water)” came from it.

According to the web, “Matsu-no-yu” continued operation until 2008. Then, it became “closed for some time.” The landromat shop seems to be active.
