Spectacular Scenery of Sandankyo in Aki-Ota

Sandankyo in Aki-Ota Town, Hiroshima Prefecture is one of the largest gorges in western Japan, spanning approximately 16 km, and is designated as a National Special Scenic Beauty. The contrast between the pristine stream gleaming in emerald green and the soaring cliffs towering on both banks is awe-inspiring. At Kurofuchi, you can take a ferry boat and enjoy the beauty of the gorge from the water surface. In autumn, the entire gorge is enveloped in autumn foliage, and the colors near Sarutobi and Nidannotaki are particularly breathtaking. It is a spectacular view like a work of art created by nature.
