lakes in japan

The seventh largest lake in Japan and one of the most famous natural sights of Shimane Prefecture.

See Mount Fuji, explore a bat cave, and visit a thatched-roof village that rivals Shirakawa-go.

It's time for an... ice wedding at this annual winter wonderland in the heart of a national park.

Bathe like royalty and experience the local longtime tradition of yumomi.

Sittin' pretty on the borders of Yamagata and Miyagi.

The home of Japanese Loch Ness!

Legends accompany Japan’s deepest lake.

Perfect for a Sunday stroll.

A serene hideaway with its own special view of Mount Fuji and hiking access to a panoramic lookout.

Anyone who has ever paid for something with a ¥1,000 bill should be familiar with this lake’s view of Mount Fuji.

A hike dotted with beauty, and one of the most picturesque rowboat trips you'll ever find.
