Yanagawa is referred to as Japan’s Venice because of its many canals along which gondolas travel. The boatmen offer interesting commentary and sing songs as the scenery passes by. In winter, you can enjoy a ride on a kotatsu bune, boats equipped with heaters and thick blankets to keep passengers warm. Experience a different kind of ride while admiring the winter scenery from the kotatsu bune!
