(26) Ryuuma Marsh, a wide, shallow wetland located in a remote corner of Japan, is a popular spot for bass fishing and bird-watching. ..... At marshes, lakes, rivers, and also along coastal bays and straits -- in fact everywhere except the driest parts of Japan -- fishermen and farmers worship ryujin and pray to them for big catches and rich harvests; in most such places they also preserve colorful tales about them, like that of Shinoryu and the Rabbit at Ryunuma Marsh.
