It has been confirmed that the high-speed solar wind flows out of the coronal holes at low latitudes, where the magnetic fields open and the temperature is low (e.g., Krieger et al. 1973). But there has not been direct observation of the solar wind out of the polar regions of corona. We report here that the observations of interplanetary scintillation (IPS) show the existence of the high-speed flow of 800 km/s out of the polar coronal regions and the well-coincidence to the model of the coronal holes extending from the polar regions.
