GPS art of demons, drawn in the land of demons✨
Fuku wa uchi! This is a GPS art course where you can draw demons on places named after demons.
This GPS art depicts Kitaonie (北鬼江) in Uozu City, Toyama Prefecture.
There used to be a village called Onie Village (鬼江村). The origin of the village name is thought to be that it was located north of Onie-cho (鬼江町), which is located at the lower mouth of Uozu-cho, or that people from Oninebashi (鬼江橋) moved to the area. Oniebashi is the downstreammost bridge of the Kamo River, which flows nearby, and was called Onie (御贄) because it was used to collect and wash fish for sacrifice to the god of Suwa Shrine.
