Lake Mashu First Observatory

I have long learned that Mozhou Lake is surrounded by clouds and mist all year round. Although today is a dark cloud, I didn't expect the visibility on the scene to be so good, so that we can feel the complete beauty of Mozhou Lake. It's really lucky.

The clouds are scattered, and the Mozhou Lake in Hokkaido Akan National Park is exposed to the true appearance. Summer is the rainy season in Hokkaido. Mozhou Lake is shrouded in clouds and mist most of the time, and the lake is rarely seen, so summer is not a good time for Mozhou Lake sightseeing. However, a strong wind blows, sweeping away the water mist that is shrouded in the lake, standing on the first observation deck, you can clearly see the whole view of Mozhou Lake.

Located in Disciple Qu, Mozhou Lake is the most transparent volcanic lake in Japan. Similar to the Changbai Mountain Tianchi in China, Mozhou Lake has a low visibility most of the time, and can only see the vast fog, and it will show its beautiful true appearance on sunny days. You can take the mashup bus to Mozhou Lake at Mozhou Station. The bus will stop at the first observation deck for 20 minutes and then return to Mozhou Station on the same road. There are only 4 shuttle buses in winter. If you miss a car, you have to wait for two or three hours. There is only one store nearby to visit, so remember to control the time.

A very beautiful place, the scenery is spectacular, and I heard that I love fog very much, so I only have to see the panoramic view of Mozhou Lake 10 times. Can I see the panoramic view is also very character, how is my character, I can know once. And there are squirrels that are not afraid of people, and they eat directly into your hands, which is very fun.

An important observation deck of Mozhou Lake, about 3 Kunming from the third observation deck, this observation deck facilities are relatively complete, the parking lot charges 500 yen, but the parking ticket with Sulphur Mountain is a package, you can pay it once.

25 minutes by bus from JR Mozhou Station to Mozhou Lake. It is said that Mozhou Lake is the most transparent lake in the world. But winter becomes a snowfield and is shrouded in haze. The rock in the middle of the lake, which looks like a rock, was originally called Kamishu, and it is also called the dimple of Mozhou Lake. In Ainu, it means becoming a godly old woman, and it really feels like a dreamy wonderland.
