This waterfall, selected as one of Japan's 100 best waterfalls, is located in Katashina Valley, a 1.5-kilometer stretch of strangely shaped rocks in Numata City, Gunma Prefecture. The sight of the water rushing down the V-shaped valley is a spectacular sight.
Fukiware Falls is a waterfall located in Numata City, Gunma Prefecture, and is designated as a national natural monument. The huge rock face, 7 meters high and 30 meters wide, has been deeply carved into a V shape on one side, and the water rushes down into the crack, so impressive that it has been nicknamed the "Niagara of the Orient." The scenery of the water flowing down as if being sucked into the basin and the deep green surroundings attracts visitors, and it is also popular as a power spot that makes you feel the majesty of nature.

There is a promenade around the waterfall that stretches for about 1.5 km, and you can view the waterfall up close from various angles. In particular, from the "Ukishima Bridge" that spans just above the waterfall, you can see the water flowing down as if it is blowing through the rock face from directly above, and you will be overwhelmed by the dynamic sight. The promenade continues along the valley, and you can stroll while enjoying the beautiful nature of the four seasons. The fresh greenery of spring, the cool greenery of summer, and the fiery foliage of autumn all enhance the view of the waterfall.

Drive-In Karaen offers free parking. There is also a free municipal parking lot, but it has a limited number of spaces, so if it is full you will need to use a paid private parking lot.
