a tale of nature and humanity.
introduction
The story of marimo, the symbol of Lake Akan,
a green jewel that weaves together the coexistence of nature and humanity.
Marimo is a miraculous product nurtured by the cold, clear waters of Lake Akan and the abundant forests that surround it. Its round shape rolls along the lakebed as it grows, and its vitality has been preserved through the intertwining of nature's power and human intention.
The people of Lake Akan have cherished marimo not merely as a tourist attraction, but as a symbol of the exquisite relationship between the lake, the forest, and its inhabitants. Conservation efforts, festivals, and the legends passed down through generations all tell the story of the pride of those who live alongside marimo.
For travelers visiting Lake Akan, marimo is more than just a natural wonder.
