Souri Pond

Wetland / Marshland
This is a retention basin in Souri, Chita City. As a reservoir for Aichi Water, it supports the Chita Peninsula, where natural water reserves are scarce. In addition to this, over 5,400 plum trees grow around the lake, which is famous for its plum blossoms as well as its original Souri Plum products including umeboshi (pickleddried plum), which were developed in the early Meiji period. The Lake Souri Plum Festival is held here from mid-February to mid-March every year.
