I went to see the cormorant fishing in Arashiyama, Kyoto. 2024.07.24
We went on a houseboat to see cormorant fishing, a seasonal summer event in Arashiyama, Kyoto. Cormorant fishing has a history of about 1,300 years and is a traditional fishing method that uses tamed cormorants to catch river fish such as sweetfish. The light from the bonfire in front of the boat is reflected on the fish's scales, making it easier for the cormorants to find the fish. We will continue to spread the charm of Kyoto.
