滋贺县余吴环湖骑行半日游

Lake Yogo is a northernmost mysterious attraction in Shiga prefecture, and its another name is “Mirror Lake”, since it looks like a natural mirror on a calm day, perfectly reflecting surrounding mountains. The lake was a stage of the fierce historical battle of Shizugatake in the midst of the age of Provincial Wars (1583). There are also many folklores associated with the lake.
