Lake Biwa in the morning has a refreshing and sacred atmosphere. I visited a small shrine dedicated to the dragon, which has been worshiped as the god of water since ancient times.
Approximately 20 minutes by car from Omihachiman Station. Fujigasaki Ryujin stands quietly on the shore of Lake Biwa.

清々しく神聖な気配が漂う、朝の琵琶湖。古来より水を司る神様として崇められてきた龍を祀る小さな神社を訪れた。
近江八幡駅から車で約20分。琵琶湖岸にひっそりと佇む藤ヶ崎龍神だ。

The area around this area is the birthplace of Manyo, known as “Mizuguki no Oka”. As a place of scenic beauty, its beauty has been written about in many poems since ancient times.

この周辺は「水茎の岡」と呼ばれる万葉故地。名勝としてその美しさは古来より多くの歌に詠まれてきた。

Lake Biwa in the evening is surrounded by golden light. From a certain pier, you can see the calm surface of the lake colored by the sunset.

黄金の光に包まれる、宵の琵琶湖。とある桟橋にて、夕焼けに染まる静かな湖面を眺める。

Omi is blessed with abundant mountains and water, and there are many spots where you can enjoy beautiful sunsets.

豊かな山水に恵まれる近江の地は、美しい夕日を楽しめるスポットのなんと多いことか。

Lake Biwa at night is also very tasty. A fountain with a beautiful lake in the background.
The Biwako Flower Fountain, which rises 180 meters off the coast of Otsu Port from the breakwater, is one of the longest in the world.

It changes into various shapes depending on the amount and angle of the water discharged, creating a cool landscape during the day and a fantastical landscape illuminated at night.

夜の琵琶湖もまた、味わい深い。美しい湖を背景に噴き上げられる噴水。
大津港の沖合180m防波堤上からあがる「びわこ花噴水」は、世界最大級の長さを誇る。

放水される水量や角度により様々な形に変化し、昼は涼感あふれる風景を、夜はライトアップによる幻想的な風景をつくり出す。
