The River Terrace in Ichinose
市ノ瀬の河岸段丘／Ichinose no Kagandankyu
Details
This flat, elevated terrain along the Tonda River was originally the riverbed or riverbank. The area was shaped by river erosion into a flat expanse, but subsequent changes in the river’s course allowed the area to emerge as dry land. These geographical features are known as river terraces. Atop the terrace, there is a reservoir utilized for rice and fruit tree cultivation. It is also known that a prominent samurai from the Muromachi era (1336-1573) once had a residence here.
