Travel on a canal boat along the dream waterway of our forefathers, and see the traces of their many great achievements that can only be seen by taking a boat ride. The Lake Biwa Canal is an artificial canal built to revive Kyoto's industry, which had declined after the capital was moved to Tokyo. The project, which overcame many difficulties, was a major project in Kyoto during the Meiji period, carried out solely by Japanese people. After 70 years, the Lake Biwa Canal has been revived.
