Anmon no Taki: scenic beauty where many tourists visit
Anmon no Taki, which literally means waterfall from a dark gate, is one of the highlights. This waterfall contains three levels including a 42-meter drop on the first level. The trekking course is 3 kilometers one way and it takes two and half hours for a round trip. Although the road to the starting point is paved, you will go up many stairs and walk on the river side, we recommend you wear comfortable shoes.
