On the northwestern foot of Mt. Asuwayama lies Tangando, a hermitage built by a doctor named Yamamoto Zuian in the Edo Period. The building was also used as a secret meeting place by Fukui’s 16th lord, Matsudaira Yoshinaga, and his vassals. At that time, Fukui’s shakudani stone was mined here and shipped across the country via the Asuwagawa River. This same stone was lovingly used for Tangando’s scenic foot paths, lanterns, and bridges.
