Goten River

Goten River

It is said that the Goten River was given its name because this river flows to the east side of a palatial home where Iemitsu, the third Shogun of the Edo period, stayed when on the way to Kyoto.
If you stroll along the river, you will cross the "Old Kamakura Road (Kamakura Kodo)" at a bridge called "Aka Bridge".
After that, the river goes beside the Enmyoji temple, and further following it you will arrive at Shirataki Park.
From Shirataki Park, the Sakuragawa River and Goten River flow separately.
The water from these rivers was used as a source of life water in the past, and their downstreams were used for paddy fields.
