To ask what color is the water in Mo Zhou Lake, the answers are different in different seasons and different angles, and it may not be seen at all! Some official websites call it "the last sanctuary on the ground", although exaggerated, it also highlights its mystery.
This volcanic lake is 351 meters above sea level, the deepest part is 211.4 meters, and the area is larger than the Akan Lake. Surrounded by cliffs of three or four hundred meters, it is said to be the most transparent lake in the world because it does not flow in and out without impurities.
There is often fog on the lake, especially in June and July (see Figure 9). There is an old song called "Mo Zhou Lake in the fog", and there are several legends about the fog of Mo Zhou Lake. If a couple can't see the lake because of the fog, it will last for a long time. If the unmarried person sees the lake without fog, What will delay the wedding period, may be to comfort the visitors who can not see the scenery here.

There is such a legend in Lake Mashū. If a couple sees theLake Mashū under the clear sky, then the wedding period will be postponed. If you can't see the lake, then love will last for a long time. It was not too foggy when we visited at this viewpoint, good sign!

Lake Mashu is located in a lake in the Kawasaki-cho, Kawakami-gun, in the eastern part of Hokkaido, Japan. It is a volcanic lake and is the most transparent lake in Japan. It was listed as a Hokkaido heritage in 2001. When I went, it was cold, although the cold wind blew my whole person frozen, but it was amazing when I saw the quiet and sacred Lake Mashu.
It is said that there is not much time when Lake Mu Zhou can see the whole picture all year round. If you are lucky enough to see the Lake of the Week at the sunny day, this is very lucky~

Very beautiful Mashulan! When I first left, it was very foggy and I couldn't see anything, but fortunately, the sun gradually came out and the weather improved. Snow mountain white, matched with Ma Zhou blue, very comfortable. I still feel that I haven't had a lot of fun and there are too few buses. I saw the stars again at night. The weather was good and there were many stars. The moon was too bright to observe the Milky Way. There is also a trip to watch Lake Mashu every morning, but we didn't report it because we felt too tired.
Lake Mashu is also one of the many volcanic lakes in Hokkaido. Other famous ones include Lake Toya, Lake Shikotsu, etc., as they are all volcanic lakes, and the landscapes of the lakes and mountains are similar. Lake Mashu is characterized by being closer to the north, which is a thinner population in Hokkaido. In the area with low pollution and high latitude climate characteristics, the lake is the clearest among many lakes. It has the world's first name. Compared with the nearby Lake Akan, the geology is quite different. With the local legends, It is worth studying in depth.
~ Flawless Sapphire-Lake Mashu ~ Lake Mashu is also a crater lake, located in the middle of Mount Mashu, with a water depth of 212 meters. Because the lake is often surrounded by clouds and mist, it is called a mysterious lake. We are lucky, just in time for the sun to shine, the lake is blue, the mountains are ethereal, the mountains surround a pool of clear water, and in the natural jewelry box, the flawless sapphires are dazzling.
In the Mashu Station sightseeing case, we rented a 10-seater van for a 3-hour tour of the two lakes of the three East Lakes-Lake Mashu and Lake Kussharo. The still surface of Lake Mashu is like a mirror, and the blue is breathtaking. Lake Mashu is located on a volcano. Visitors reach the top of the mountain and look down. The driver said that this is the most beautiful scenery in Hokkaido. You can see the whole view of the lake only half of the year. Many times the fog obscures the scenery. Our luck is very good. Today's scenery can score 90 points~
