In the Virgo cluster, we can perform a close study of the gas injection mechanism from galaxies into the cluster space and the interaction between the injected gas and the sorrouding cluster medium. In 1996 to 1997, we carried out mapping observations of a 2.°5 × 2.°5 area in the north-west region of the cluster. There are 16 pointings in total in this region, and the observed results are briefly reported here.
