[Sakura - Best Viewing] Shiborenko

Located at an altitude of 850m, this mountain lake has a circumference of 1.2km and was historically a site for dragon deities, along with the Fuji Five Lakes. Its name, Shiborenko, comes from a legend of a dragon god named Ozaki Ryūō that has four tails. In spring, the lakeside is adorned with pink flowers, beautifully contrasting with the blue lake. Enjoy the spring scenery of Shiborenko, which shows various faces throughout the four seasons.
