- What to expect
-
* Yanagawa is known as the “**City of Waterways**” because there are many beautiful canals, or moats, running throughout the city. One of the best ways to experience Yanagawa is by taking a river cruise, also called a “**moat tour**.” * During the cruise, you will ride in a small boat and travel along the peaceful canals. This unique tour lets you see Yanagawa from a lower viewpoint, close to the water, which is different from walking around the city. You can relax and enjoy the charming scenery, traditional buildings, and the calm atmosphere of Yanagawa.
