Jokoji Waterfall

This is a beautiful roadside waterfall. The water in the pool is extremely clear and the pool is super deep. If you are driving through this area, you should definitely stop by this waterfall and check it out.

The address is Iwato, Takachiho-cho, Nishiusuki-gun, Miyazaki Prefecture, and it is about 15 minutes by car or motorcycle from Tenyasukawara towards Yamate on Route 7. I think it's a very dangerous road, so I recommend you drive safely and don't drive too fast. A long time ago, there was a temple called Jokoji Temple (the site of which is now located nearby), and there is a legend that the chief priest lived a very long life by drinking the water from this waterfall, hence the name Jokoji Falls. It seems that it has been added. You can arrive at Takitsubo in about a 1-minute walk from Prefectural Route 7. There are no parking lots in the area, so you will have to park on the street. The road is quite narrow, but I think you can park if you pull close to the edge. It's a road with almost no cars, so the waterfall has a lot of water and is dynamic, and you can go close to the basin of the waterfall, which was good for me!

Visit Amanoiwato Shrine. It takes about 15 minutes by car, but the road is narrow and has many curves, so be careful not to drive too fast. There is no parking lot, but there is a parking space for about 4 cars in front of the bridge and 1 parking space across the bridge. Please be careful not to obstruct traffic. The waterfall is about 1 minute in front of you. I think it is a beautiful waterfall that can be seen near the basin of the waterfall due to its height and volume of water. The waterfall viewing space is a bit narrow, so please be careful where you step.

Although the waterfall is not very high, the white foaming water falling down the rocks and the green trees make it even more beautiful, soothing the eyes and the soul. Excellent negative ion effect

It's about 15 minutes after passing Amanoiwato, as mentioned in other reviews, but it may feel long because it's a winding road. The waterfall itself can be seen from the road, so it's right there! The leaves 🍂 were starting to change color 🍁 and it was a beautiful sight. From now on, the colors will become more and more colorful, so the Kunekune road will be fun.
