I'm heading to Kusatsu from Tokyo and Ikaho was floating about in my head as a 'should-i-visit-or-miss-it' plan. Looks like I'll miss it and head straight to Kusatsu. Thanks. Great pics and info.

Dylan, that's the bon curry woman. She gets updated every generation to someone more modern. Karurosu, I agree. But there are lots of secret parts in the big city worth seeing too. ait.meijin, yep there are many brands of mineral water that come from the mountains. Mostly from Nagano and Yamanashi.

Is it popular among local people? I was born in a spa-area of my country and we get a lot of various drinking mineral waters but unfortunately there's a tiny amount of hot mineral baths (like onsens in Japan).

Little Towns have more special and secret places to discover than big cities i think. It really looks nice there.

I wonder if the curry advertising sign with the housewife pictured in the first photo is an original or just a retro reproduction?
