What makes it special
About Yanagawa Canal Boat Ride
- Enjoy Seasonal Scenery: We recommend viewing the changing landscapes, such as the spring irises or autumn foliage, directly from the boat.
- Observe the Boatman's Skill: Relax and enjoy the rhythmic movement of the boatman navigating with a single pole and the soothing local storytelling.
- Combine with Local Gourmet: A popular plan is to enjoy the famous 'Unagi no Seiromushi' (steamed eel) before or after your boat ride.
- Explore the Surrounding Area: After your boat experience, we recommend a walking tour of the nearby historical shrines and cultural sites.
