The Biwako Canal was constructed in Kyoto during the Meiji Era for the purposes of shipping, irrigation, water supply, electrical power generation and fire prevention. In accordance with the regulations regarding its use, the canal has also been used to supply water to landscaped gardens and parks. The subject of this study is the network of water flows formed by the artificial waterways around the Biwako Canal, which incorporates the traditional Japanese design called "Yarimizu" that streams into gardens. This study clarifies that the water flow network of the Biwako Canal has a stratified structure, according to a spatial relationship between human beings and the natural environment. People who reside in urban areas enjoy having common spaces in which to gather, and they also enjoy incorporating water flow networks into their private gardens and spaces. Based on these results, we present a conceptual model to discuss landscape planning and amenity planning involving water networks.
