4. 象瀉 Kisakata
約在200年前,海底由於地震隆起,形成了現在的陸地。到了6月,稻田佈滿水時,新綠的名峰鳥海山會倒映浮於水面,呈現只有在這個時期才能看到的美麗的景色。
Once a group of islands, the entire area became land about 200 years ago when an earthquake caused the seabed to rise. One of the best times of the year to visit is in June when the rice fields are flooded—the spectacular Mount Chokai covered in lush new growth reflecting on the water is a truly beautiful sight.
