Taruhime Falls, Mountain waterfall in Chino, Japan
The Taruhime Falls descends through ancient forest with thick moss-covered stones, creating a water curtain against the mountain backdrop near Tateshina resort.
The waterfall bears significance in local history as part of the traditional Tateshina area, connecting generations of residents to their natural heritage.
The neighboring Taruhime Shrine maintains a strong connection to the falls, reflecting Japanese customs of honoring natural elements through religious structures.
