When I visited Kochi Prefecture with a gathering of relatives, I rented a car and spent two days photographing the nature of Kochi.
I was driving along the mountain road toward Yasui Valley to see Niyodo Blue, but I involuntarily parked the car at the beautiful Niyodo River that stretches on and released the shutter. This scenery, which should have been only halfway to my destination, was the moment when I experienced the nature of Kochi Prefecture.

Please also see here if you like.
The Niyodo River has been ranked first in the water quality ranking of first-class rivers in Japan for consecutive years.
Of the 1,560 km² basin area and 124 km long channel, most of the basin is covered by mountainous areas, dotted with Instagrammable spots where you can enjoy clear blue streams and superb views of nature.
During the autumn foliage season, Nakatsu Valley and Yasui Valley are recommended. In Yasui Valley, there is a crystal pool that changes color to blue and green depending on the season and time of day, and the contrast between Niyodo blue and autumn leaves is beautiful, making it a popular spot for tourists.
In the midstream area, there are multipurpose dams, the Odo Dam, and flood control and power supply development facilities, supporting the lives of people living with the Niyodo River. There are plenty of campsites.
