Naena Waterfall

Hi, everybody! This time I went to Naena Waterfall cascading in between Niigata prefecture and Nagano prefecture 🙂 This fall runs into Seki River and is selected as one of the Top 100 Waterfalls of Japan as well. The length of the fall from top to bottom is 55 meters, and it is also known as “Earthquake Waterfall” because the tumultuous sound it makes sounds as if it were an earthquake. It is pretty far from home, but I rolled up my sleeves and drove at midnight and got to the parking lot in Myōkō city, Niigata prefecture without trouble. Because it was drizzling, I was waiting about 2 hours for it to let up while watching anime. Speaking of Myōkō, it reminds me of Hikakin. Without further ado, let me move on to sharing the photos of Naena Waterfall.

Akasakayama Park and Shōun Sansō Villa

Good evening, everyone! This time I went to Akasakayama Park & Shōun Sansō Villa located in Kashiwazaki city, Niigata prefecture, Japan 😀 It was on November 12th, 2024. Cloudy, windy and a bit chilly. Parked my car at the parking lot after paying 1000 yen for the cooperation of their illuminations. I am going to share the photos of Akasakayama Park, followed by those of Shōun Sansō Villa. First off, this is called Great Pond next to the parking lot.

Mikura Bridge

Hello there! I went to Mikura Bridge located in Tsunanmachi, Nakauonuma-gun, Niigata prefecture, Japan! The date of my visit was on October 26th, 2024, cloudy and a bit chilly. This is a wooden suspension bridge selected for one of the top 50 bridges in Japan and also known as a filming location for the movie "Yureru" as well. The spectacular view of Nakatsugawa Valley seen from Mikura Bridge must be instagrammable without doubt. FYI, it is about a 10-minute-walk from Mikura Bridge Parking Lot. So, first of all, I am going to share the pictures of the bridge.

Higashi-Akatani Continuous Cave Gate

Hello there! This time I went to Higashi-Akatani Continuous Cave Gate in Shibata city, Niigata prefecture, Japan :D It was on October 12th, 2024, sunny and the weather was perfect. I was moved as if I fell into the world of Ghibli. Having said that, as it is a road, vehicles come and go on and off. You will be able to take pictures more safely on weekdays. Well then, I will share the pictures of the gate first.
