Enjoy the street of koi fish swimming freely in the drains. Shimabara's spring water is so clean that the carp could live in the city's pipes. It's called Koi fish town.

I suspect the carps are not free to swim everywhere. Was still interesting to see carps leisurely cruising along the drain systems. Who is feeding them?

The Carps and Kois are a welcomed sights. Unless you have some bread crumbs to feed, they usually hide underneath the pavement covers. They seem big and well fed than wild fishes in the drains. A detour sights if you on the way to the ferry crossing but not worth a dedicated trip though.

Make sure you stop at the residence and pay to get in and rest inside while they serve you a small cup of tea!
