50 minutes of doing nothing and being in nature.
The river is clear
I was born in the downtown area of Tokyo. Rivers are very familiar to me, and they are a part of my everyday life.
The river certainly existed.
Although a river surrounded by buildings certainly makes for a beautiful landscape, it is not something to enjoy in itself. When I first saw the clear Niyodo River, I was deeply moved.
Fish and waterfowl coexist here, and because the water is so clear, even the riverbed looks clean. For those who were born and raised in the Niyodo River basin, this is a normal sight, but for me, it was a shock because I was used to seeing a muddy river.
[Spots to enjoy the Niyodo River]
The first thing that comes to mind when thinking of sightseeing spots in the Niyodo River is
Where is it?
When my friend who lives in the Kanto region came to Kochi for the first time,
"There's a place called Nikobuchi where the river looks blue, right?"
I'm sure that many of you would also recommend Nikobuchi as a tourist spot along the Niyodo River. Indeed, there are several spots where you can experience the beauty of the Niyodo River, such as Nikobuchi in Ino Town and Nakatsu Valley in Niyodogawa Town.
However, for those of you who are tired everyday
"50 minutes where you don't have to do anything."
I hope you can experience that.
Time to enjoy the Niyodo River while doing nothing.
