``Lake Biwa Canal Boat'' A great achievement of the Meiji era that was achieved by connecting the thoughts of our predecessors. Kyoto rapidly declined after the Meiji Restoration due to the de facto transfer of the capital to Tokyo. The key to its revival was the construction of the Lake Biwa Canal. This unprecedentedly large project, which cost approximately twice the annual budget of Kyoto Prefecture at the time, was completed in 1890 with the help of Japanese people alone, without relying on foreign engineers. Please enjoy the scenery of this Japan Heritage site, which is still loved even after about 70 years. In the spring of 2024, we will extend the route to Lake Biwa and Otsu Port and begin operations! Why not enjoy sightseeing around Lake Biwa and passing through Otsu Lock, as well as enjoy the colorful cherry blossom trees and fresh greenery along the waterway?Link KyotoLake Biwa canal boatcanalscenicLINK KYOTOautumn leavessustainableKyoto sightseeing
