    As I promised: here the next update! This one is about the rural areas east of Kawashima city, dominated by Ogawa River.

    This little historic village is called Ōshima 大島村:

    It is situated along Ogawa River banks... 802.jpg

    ...and traditionally a fishing village. 803.jpg

    Further east, the town of Kamishima 神島街 has a small river port area, next to Mikawa Bridge 美川橋: 811.jpg

    Opposite of the river port, the small town of Mikawa 美川村 has a little marina: 812.jpg

    Mikawa feels rather calm and quiet compared to Kawashima City... 813.jpg

    Another small valley is in the south-eastern corner: Komatsudani 小松谷: 821.jpg

    The village of Komatsumura 小松村 is a very historical site: 823.jpg

    ...and known nation-wide for its historic lightings: 825.jpg

    National Highway 91 crosses Ogawa River... 831.jpg

    ...and east of it is the village of Awazu 粟津村: 832.jpg

    Back to Kamishima 神島街... 841.jpg

    ...which is the commercial center in the east of Kawashima City. 842.jpg
