A mysterious natural wonder in the mountains of Hagi City, where countless hexagonal columnar joints created by cooled lava from volcanic activity spread across the riverbed like "Tatami mats." This grand landscape created by Earth's volcanic activity millions of years ago is a masterpiece of natural art, and the clear water flowing over the hexagonal stones is breathtakingly beautiful. Walking on the unique geometric stones while listening to the murmur of the river, you can feel the pulse of the Earth and the mystery of nature. It is a hidden spectacular view spot away from the hustle, also known as a Geopark, perfect for those wanting to experience the dynamic scale of nature.
