Selected as one of "Japan's Top 100 Waterfalls," this 60-meter waterfall was famously depicted in ukiyo-e by Katsushika Hokusai. Walking trails allow visitors to feel the powerful spray and refreshing negative ions up close. The contrast between white water and lush greenery or autumn leaves is stunning. In summer, enjoying "Nagashi Somen" (flowing noodles) while listening to the waterfall offers a multi-sensory Japanese experience that refreshes both mind and body.

Gifu

Gujo Odori Festival

One of Japan's three major Bon Odori dances with over 400 years of history, registered as a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage. Held for about 30 nights from mid-July to early September, the "Tetsuya Odori" (all-night dance) in mid-August is the peak of excitement. The most special feature is the sense of unity, as tourists and locals join in a large circle together, clicking their wooden clogs (Geta). There are 10 types of dances, all simple yet rhythmical, allowing beginners to join easily. It is a unique opportunity to feel the summer spirit and warm heart of Japan.
