Water from Mt Hakusan crossing Gifu, Fukui, Ishikawa and Toyama joined together and formed Nagaragawa River.

Since ancient times, Mt Hakusan has been worshiped as a mountain of worship, bringing the important “water of life” for farming and living.
It is one of the Three Holy Mountains in Japan along with Mt Fuji and Mt Tateyama with a history of over 1300 years as the head temple of Hakusan Faith spreading throughout Japan.
Here, Gujo is one of the bases for Mt Hakusan worship.
