Nabegataki Falls is a rare waterfall located in Oguni-machi, Aso-gun, Kumamoto Prefecture, where you can see the falls from behind. Although it is small, at about 10 meters high, the water flows down over a width of about 20 meters, like a thin curtain of water, and its graceful appearance has earned it the nickname "water curtain." A promenade has been built behind the waterfall, allowing you to enjoy a rare perspective that is rarely experienced anywhere else, viewing the waterfall from the inside. This unique landscape has also been used as a location for many commercials and movies, increasing its popularity.

The area around the waterfall basin is surrounded by lush greenery, and when the sunlight shines through, the sparkling spray creates a fantastic atmosphere. The beauty of the waterfall is particularly striking when the sunlight filters through the trees or when the water volume increases after a rain. The cool air and the sound of the flowing water provide deep healing to visitors, and it is also popular as a power spot where you can feel negative ions all over your body.

Nabegataki Falls is a popular tourist spot for a wide range of people, including families, couples, and photography enthusiasts, due to its easy access and unique scenery. It is also close to Aso and Kurokawa Onsen, so it is recommended to stop by as part of a driving course. It is a place where you can experience the mystery of nature and the beauty of water with all five senses.

There is a night-time illumination event in early April, which is fantastic and popular.
