Description
Japan’s mysterious Mashu-ko, or Lake Mashu, is rumoured to be one of the clearest lakes in the world. This mirror-like caldera lake sits within the Akan-Mashu National Park on the island of Hokkaido in northern Japan, and it is considered sacred by Japan’s indigenous. The lake is blanketed in fog more than 100 days a year, and at 212m deep, it is one of the deepest lakes in Japan. In addition to being known as one of Japan’s most beautiful lakes, Lake Mashu is also among the clearest lakes in the world, with a visibility of 20 to 30m.
