Aki River
The 883rd longest river in the world
The Aki River (the Akigawa River) is a river in Japan. The Aki River flows west of Tokyo Metropolitan Area. It is a major tributary of the Tama River, The Japanese name, means "Autumn River." The name Akigawa River may seem strange for some people as kawa/gawa in Japanese means river so people may think the name should be Aki river, but that is wrong, because the names of lakes in Japanese usually have kawa/gawa at the end of the name.
Akigawa Lake, situated in the western part of Tokyo, offers a blend of natural beauty, cultural significance, and recreational opportunities. Nestled in the mountainous region of Akiruno City, this lake serves as an escape from Tokyo.
