Kitasaga's scenic spot "Osawa no Ike" is known as a famous spot for viewing the moon. This pond, where water lilies spread, fits in the dark blue that captures the night sky, and you can enjoy the moonlight floating on the surface of the water. The moonlight shimmering on the surface of the water is painted in multiple gold colors with different luster, and the bold composition focusing only on the surface of the water represents the graceful world of dark blue paper gold paint.
