The Sacred Lake for the indigenous people in Hokkaido Ainu !

by Kazu 

The municipality of Akan was acquired by Kushiro City and is promoted with the Marsh of Kushiro that is listed in the Ramsar Treaty as the sacred area for the migrant birds and other creatures. 

Lake Akan is also the sacred area for the indigenous people in Hokkaido Ainu as well as the various kinds of creatures. 

Lake Akan was created by the volcano activities and naturally, it has so nice hot springs and  fabulous hotels beside.
