The Biwako Sosui, a canal built in the Meiji era to channel water from Lake Biwa from Shiga Prefecture to Kyoto City.
In 2018, the "Biwako Sosui Boat," a boat that elegantly descends the Sosui, was revived, and cruising to view someiyoshino cherry trees and mountain cherry blossoms planted along the Sosui is popular. From March 22 (Fri.), 2024, when the cherry blossoms are at their best, the "Biwako Otsu Spring Light-up Cherry Blossoms on Biwako Sosui" will be held, so if you take an evening cruise, you can see the beautiful cherry blossoms lit up.
