Flickr Pic #28: 「日光 Spring 08」 Lake Chuzenji

「日光 Spring 08」 Lake Chuzenji
Originally uploaded by scion_cho

The last of my featured Nikko series.

Lake Chuzenji is a scenic lake in Nikkō National Park in the city of Nikkō, Tochigi Prefecture, Japan. The lake has a surface area of 11.62 km² and a circumference of 25 km. Its elevation at the surface is 1,269 m, and the water reaches a depth of 163 m. Water drains through the Kegon Falls.

We came here at around 2-3pm, right after viewing Kegon Falls. Light coming from the sun was harsh for our photography. Too bad the boat cruise wasn't available during that time.
