If you travel somewhere in the Tohoku region of Japan, I recommend taking a cruise on the Mogami River. The famous poet, Basho MATSUO (1644–1694) left the following haiku (Japanese seventeen-syllable poem):

Gathering seawards
The summer rains, how
swiftly flows
Mogami River.
(Translated by Donald Keene)

Why do not you feel the world of Japanese haiku at Mogami River?
