Kamogawa Delta

Local residents and students from nearby universities come to walk, relax and play in the water, and stepping stones shaped like turtles, plovers, boats and triangular rice balls cross the river. The Kamo Ōhashi bridge to the south gives a view over the whole delta. Shimogamo Shrine and the Tadasu no Mori woodland lie to the north, and the Demachi Masugata shopping street to the west. Cherry trees bloom along the banks in spring, and the Daimonji bonfire of Gozan no Okuribi can be seen in summer. The delta is also a setting for many films, dramas and anime.
