All Reviews of Lake Tazawa

At Lake Tazawa, Japan's deepest lake with its lapis-blue waters, seeing the golden flying Tatsuko statue standing beside the clear lake, backed by layers of distant mountains, creates a poetic and legendary scene. Stroll along the lakeshore and visit the elegant, historic Gozanoishi Shrine, where old stone lanterns complement the tranquil lake and mountain scenery.

You can also buy fish food near the shrine and enjoy feeding the fish, experiencing the purity and vitality of the lake up close. Whether you stop to admire the vivid blue water or immerse yourself in the mysterious atmosphere of its legends, Lake Tazawa's natural beauty is truly refreshing!

The water of Lake Tazawa is clear and beautiful, with the deep blue surface reflecting like a mirror and mountains surrounding it. Taking your time around the lakeshore to see the Statue of Tatsuko and the natural scenery is very relaxing. It's a place worth lingering to experience the charm of Akita.

Lake Tazawa is so beautiful, I couldn’t help but stay a little longer 💙

The water has a dreamy cobalt blue color and is so clear it looks like it has a filter on it. No wonder it’s known as Japan’s deepest lake. The weather was great that day, and the sunlight sparkling on the lake, with the mountains in the background, made every random photo look amazing.

There isn’t much noise or bustle here. Just quietly taking in the lake view made the trip feel extra relaxing and totally worth it.

Walking around the lake is really relaxing. It's perfect for a slow stroll, and the color of the lake looks different from every angle.

It's the deepest lake in Japan. Every visitor rushes to take a photo with the Tatsuko statue.
