Sanzu River

The Sanzu River (三途の川 Sanzu-no-kawa), or River of Three Crossings, is a Japanese Buddhist tradition and religious belief similar to the River Styx. It is believed that on the way to the afterlife, the dead must cross the river, which is why a Japanese funeral includes placing six coins in the deceased's casket. The Sanzu River is popularly believed to be located in Mount Osore, a suitably desolate and remote region of northern Japan.
