Lake Tase, created by damming the clear Sarugaishi River, is a large artificial lake with a circumference of 45 km. Not only does it have beautiful scenery in each season, but it is also a treasure trove of freshwater fish, such as carp, carp, and winter smelt fishing. Approximately 200,000 irises decorate the lakeside from mid-June to early July, and in the summer you can enjoy lake sports such as canoeing and sailing.
