Description

The Takahashi River originates from Akechi Pass near Hanamiyama in Tottori Prefecture, 1,188 m (3,898 ft) above sea level. It flows through the cities of Niimi, Takahashi, Sōja, and Kurashiki, eventually flowing into the Mizushimanada area of the Inland Sea. The mouth is located between the Mizushima and Tamashima areas of Kurashiki. Reconstruction and repairs in 1907 created the eastern and western branches of the Takahashi River.
