Butsubutsu-gawa River

"A 30-minute walk from JR Shimosato Station. Located near the Konoshiro bus stop, this Class B river is believed to be the shortest river in Japan. A tributary which flows into the Konoshiro River in Konoshiro Town, the river is just one-meter-wide at its widest and is also just 13.5-meters-long. This, in turn, makes it incredibly easy to take in the entire river. ""Butsubutsu,"" which is a corruption of ""futsufutsu,"" the Japanese term for ""bubbling,"" which was how the bubbling river was originally described since the river flows from the spring."
