Research Abstract	The construction of sustainable society of water use is the important problem to be achieved in the near future. Geographers can make contributions to the solution of water issues through publishing survey results, recommending better water management, and performing water education, which aims to raise the water literacy level of people in the child and adult education. This study discusses the water management in the specific area, which is conducted in the Ryukyu islands, the Kumamoto area, the Ogaki area, the Mt.Fuji area and others. The conservation and wise management of hydrological environment requires the construction of water ecomuseum based on the field excursion.
