Seeking coolness this summer ✨ A hidden summer retreat for adults, where you can be healed by the tranquility and clear streams

Shasui Falls, located in Yamakita Town, Kanagawa Prefecture, is a famous waterfall that has been selected as one of Japan's 100 Best Waterfalls.
Boasting a height of 69 meters and a width of 13 meters, it stands quietly amidst the deep mountain scenery, enveloping visitors in the pure air and flowing water.

The name comes from a legend that "water as pure and delicious as sake springs forth from here," and indeed, this water has been selected as one of Japan's 100 Famous Waters. It has the healing power to refresh both body and mind.

You can reach the waterfall on a well-maintained walking trail, enjoying the lush greenery of the valley along the way. The rocks and moss around the basin are beautifully colored, creating a tranquil space where only the sound of the waterfall echoes. It's a truly relaxing time to forget the hustle and bustle and reconnect with nature.

However, playing in the river is prohibited, and access to the waterfall's basin is restricted. It's important to observe good manners and enjoy nature in peace. Don't forget to wear comfortable shoes and insect repellent.

Shasui Falls, located close to the city, offers a soothing, otherworldly experience.

Whether you're looking for a summer getaway or a relaxing weekend getaway, it's a must-visit destination.
