Kasagi Sight-Seeing Navigation　No.5　（Explanation Of Sight-Seeing Spots）

◇Oketsu (Potholes)◇




You can see Oketsu, potholes, near the confluence of the Nunome and Kizu
Rivers. These holes were created by
pebbles and rock flakes that were caught in the concaves of the riverbed and
rolled inside innumerable times by whirlpools.
Since the riverbed in this area is made of granite, which is extremely
hard, experts estimate that it must have taken hundreds of thousands of years
or millions of years for these potholes to have been produced.
