A Forest of Illusion in Silence: The Submerged Forest of Akita's Lake Shuusen

The submerged forest of Lake Shuusen is a famous spot where trees standing in a line on the surface of a quiet lake create a fantastic landscape. The lake shows different expressions from season to season, and especially during the season of fresh green and autumn leaves, the vivid colors reflected on the surface of the water fascinate visitors.

The lake was formed by the construction of a dam, and the trees remain underwater, creating a unique landscape. Visitors can view the lake up close by canoe or SUP, and the scene enveloped in morning mist is mysterious and beautiful. The submerged forests of Lake Shuusen, which can be considered art created by nature, are a spectacular spot worth visiting.
