Located in Iwakuni City, Yamaguchi Prefecture, this scenic spot of clear streams and waterfalls has been selected as one of Japan's 100 best waterfalls. You can enjoy the clear air and water interwoven with nature.
Located in Jakuchi Goryu Falls, it is a beautiful scenic spot with five waterfalls in a row, and was selected as one of the 100 best waterfalls in Japan. As its name suggests, it is characterized by a powerful flow like a rising dragon and clear water, and it attracts visitors with its different expressions in each season, such as the fresh greenery of spring, the refreshing feeling of summer, and the autumn leaves. In particular, in summer, the area around the waterfall basin is cool, and it is crowded with people seeking coolness as a natural air conditioner.

Jakuchi Goryu Falls is a collective name for five waterfalls: Ryuzu, Ryumon, Hakuryu, Noboryu, and Ryuo, from top to bottom. While walking along the promenade, you can appreciate the unique appearance of each waterfall up close. The clear air, the roar of the waterfalls, and the pleasant chirping of birds will refresh you and help you forget the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The promenade along the stream is well maintained and is a relatively easy course to walk.

It takes about a 5-minute walk to the first waterfall and about 30 minutes to the last.

The parking lot is located at the entrance to Jakuchi Gorge.

[Trivia]
The clear stream of Jakuchi Gorge has been selected as one of the "100 Best Waters of the Heisei Era" by the Ministry of the Environment, and its water quality is guaranteed. In summer, many people cool off by dipping their feet in the water.

[Hidden Spot]
There are several small bridges and benches to rest on along the promenade around the five waterfalls. In particular, from places where you can look down on the waterfalls from above, you can enjoy the power of the waterfalls and the rich forest surrounding them at the same time.

[Concerns]
Because it is located in the mountains, it is very inconvenient to access by public transportation, so you will need to visit by car. The roads are well maintained, but there are some places with many curves, so please drive safely.
