Lake Saroma
Admire the beautiful blue lake
Lake Saroma is the third largest lake in Japan. The lake surface is a uniquely beautiful blue color, which has been described as "Saroman Blue." As the eastern coast of Lake Saroma offers a breathtaking view of the sunset, we recommend catching the views at sunset. There is an observation deck, camp site, stores selling local specialty products, and other amenities and attractions near the lake, so the area is usually bustling with many tourists.
