[2] The Hayato-ike is a large pond that was originally dug in 1646 for irrigation purposes on the order of Lord Naruse of Inuyama.
The pond and park around it has turned into a recreation area and is popular during the cherry blossom season.
The area also has various shopping areas, such as the large Aeon department store, formerly JUSCO,[3] and restaurants such as the landmark Kani Dōraku next to Kōshō-ji.
