An impressive scenic spot on the clear Inami River where white rock walls stand like a "Byobu" (folding screen). The rugged yet beautiful texture of the rocks, the transparent flow of water, and the deep surrounding greenery create a perfect contrast. The sight of autumn leaves vibrantly coloring the rock face is particularly spectacular. You can descend to the riverbank to feel the power of nature, making it a hidden gem that envelops visitors in quiet emotion.
