Located in the town of Biei, this bright blue pond has many different faces and changes its appearance depending on the season.
In the early days of winter, before the pond freezes over, you can see the bright blue colour shining below the icy surface. During winter it is lit up at night (from 5pm to 9pm) you can enjoy the romantic scenery of the starry night sky framed by the illuminated trees and frozen pond. When it is covered in snow it becomes like a spectacular winter fairy-land.
If you have time, visit the nearby Shirahige waterfall which is also lit up at night.
