This purification ritual is an important practice to prepare oneself before approaching the divine. The name 'Isuzugawa' is said to derive from the river's clear waters, which produce a sound reminiscent of bells. The river is surrounded by lush greenery, allowing visitors to enjoy the changing scenery throughout the seasons.
