Oirase Keiryu is the most charming stream I have seen. This stream has a strong current and many forms, from a magnificent 20-meter waterfall, to a bubbling stony brooks, a wide river bend, to a cascade of white torrents. This stream is truly a delight to spend time with. As this stream flows down the green valley, it leaves a trail of ever-changing water impressions that mesmerizing to watch.
Majestic beeches, oaks and the palmate-leafed horsechestnut trees spread their branches to form a leafy cathedral that filters in gleams of sunlight over its ever-flowing water. When the wind blows, you can see a thousand of shade of green in its quivering leaves.
I did not know that such picturesque and postcard-perfect river really exist outside of, well, postcards!
I had taken this trip as a part of Hoshino Resort's 100-Stories trip project, and you can read a version of this blog entry in Japanese at: http://www.hoshinoresort.com/100stories/reports/079/
