Tourism (Scenic spots)


Sandan-kyo

The colorful beauty and grandeur of this scene make the spot to one of the few similar places in Japan you can count with one hand. It has been designated as one of Japan's most outstanding special scenic spots.
A canyon cutting deep through the primeval forest, with walls of stone soaring on both sides 40 m high, waterfalls, rapids and ravines, this river provides a continuous grand natural scenery that has very few equivalents.
In particular Kurobuchi, Sarutobi, Nidan-Taki, Sandan-Taki and Mitsu-Taki with their overwhelming beauty are called Japan's 5 grandiose scenes.
