Sagami River is a sacred river that flows through Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan. This river, which supports the lives of the people of Kanagawa Prefecture, is not just a water source, but the heartbeat of the land itself, and a place where history itself flows. At the three-tiered waterfall, the sound of water scraping the rock surface makes the air tremble. Every moment is like the earth itself coming back to life.
Standing on top of Takada Bridge, the sparkle of the river flowing below fills your field of vision, and Mt. Daisen towers over you solemnly in the distance. Its majestic appearance seems to symbolize the story of blessings and faith that the river brought to this land. Sagami River is not just a river. It is a belt of life that supports people's lives, and prayer resides in its flow. I want you to feel that mysterious breath through the screen.
Sagami River is a river with a total length of 114 km that originates in the Tanzawa Mountains and crosses Kanagawa Prefecture. This river supplies approximately 40% of the tap water in the area and is the lifeblood of many people. It has been revered as a ``sacred river'' since ancient times, and its flow is imbued with people's prayers and gratitude. The three-tier waterfall is a place that symbolizes the sacredness of the Sagami River, and when you stand there, the sound of the water resonates throughout your body, as if it were the heartbeat of the earth. The water of the waterfall carves the rocks, and the traces carved into the earth tell of the eternity of time.
Furthermore, the view of the river from Takada Bridge is also special.
The large mountain on the opposite bank stands tall like a giant protecting this land, and the sight of the river water reflecting the mountain's surface captivates the hearts of those who see it. Daisen has been an object of worship since ancient times, and the Sagami River that flows at its base is a belt of life that connects the mountain and people. This river not only supports the daily lives of the people of Kanagawa Prefecture, but it is also the spiritual home of these people.
Through this virtual walk, we want you to feel the life and prayers that dwell in the flow of the Sagami River, and to become a part of that story yourself. It promises a deep impression that cannot be obtained just by watching.
