Suigō Prefectural Natural Park
The park consists of an Ordinary Zone to the East, in the Kiso-sansen alluvial delta, where the Ibi, Nagara, and Kiso Rivers flow down into Ise Bay, and a Special Zone (subdivided into Class 1, 2, and 3 Special Zones) to the northwest, around Mount Tado at the southern end of the Yōrō Mountains. To the northeast, the park adjoins Senbon-matsubara in Gifu Prefecture, a flood-control initiative following the 1754 Hōreki River incident, and now protected within Senbon Matsubara Prefectural Natural Park. Within the park, features of natural and cultural interest include Tado Taisha, the National Natural Monument Tado's Callery Pear Plant Communities, Japanese chinquapins, Gifu butterflies, Uga Jinja (宇賀神社), Nagashima onsen , and the remains of the landing of the Shichiri no watashi ferry crossing, between Kuwana-juku and Miya-juku, celebrated by Hiroshige in The Fifty-three Stations of the Tōkaidō, and designated a Prefectural Historic Site.
