I visited the 11 km long Sasagawa Nagare (Sasagawa Stream) in Murakami, Niigata Prefecture. It is designated as a natural monument of scenic beauty and is ideal not only for swimming but also for fishing, camping and walking. This time, I swam like a summer sea!
Unfortunately, even with cloudy skies, this is the view! Dodo!
See, this crystal clear water quality! It's as clean as a river!
Dive from the rocks! (Be careful not to hurt yourself!)
Small fish were also swimming in the clear waters.
The Sasagawa Nagare (Sasagawa Stream) has many rocky areas, where you can discover a different kind of fun just by venturing out. Keep moving forward and deeper into the rocky...
Playing cave fairies is also fun! ( ˘ω˘ )♡
On this day, we only stopped for about an hour on the drive from Niigata City to Yamagata Prefecture, but it is one of the best spots in Niigata with a spectacular view that can be fully enjoyed on its own. Even if you don't go into the sea, just walking around the surrounding rocks will give you a new stimulus. The water is really clean, so if you haven't been there yet, please do! I am sure you will be captivated by the beautiful Sasakawaryu scenery!
