| I cycled from Yamagata to Aterazawa today. "左沢" which is a name of a location, is difficult to read. It is written as Hidari-Sawa but read as Aterazawa.  This town prospered from water transportation along the Mogami River. Small ships traveled from the upper river to the harbor here in order to transfer cargos to the larger ships. The old Mogami Bridge, built in 1940, is recognized as "engineering works heritage" by the Japanese Society of Civil Engineers. The view from the Tateyama park, Information Center told me, was distinguished. A bend in the Mogami River could be seen from the steps at the park.   29.33Km/Total 4h |
