Mone no Ike
The Nameless Pond, commonly known as "Monet's Pond," located in Itadori, Seki City, Gifu Prefecture, features highly transparent spring water and beautiful water lilies that bloom in early summer, creating a landscape reminiscent of Monet's famous painting "Water Lilies." The graceful koi swimming in the pond enhance its charm even further. Initially an unnamed agricultural reservoir, this pond gained fame through social media. From spring to autumn, the water lilies bloom, and the pond's clarity increases. Even in winter, the spring water prevents it from freezing, offering a fantastical view. The water lilies open around 9 AM and showcase their most beautiful form around 11 AM. Be sure to enjoy the stunning scenery throughout the four seasons.
