During the month of August, the three lakes, Izunuma, Uchinuma and Naganuma, are covered by lotus flowers, symbol flowers of Buddha.
During the Bon period, Buddhists believe that the spirits of the ancestors come back to their home.
So the descendants welcome them with a special decoration and special meals.
Admiring the lotus flowers on a boat should be the most suitable experience during these festive days of Bon.
