Kagekiyodō, Natural monument cave in Mine, Japan
Kagekiyodō extends 1.5 kilometers through limestone formations, featuring two sections: a 700-meter tourist path and a 400-meter dark exploration route.
The cave served as a refuge for samurai general Kagekiyo approximately 800 years ago after his defeat in the battle of Dannoura.
The limestone cave contains numerous geological formations and fossils that demonstrate the natural evolution of the Akiyoshidai Karst Plateau region.
Open daily from 8:30 AM to 5:15 PM, the cave offers equipment rentals including helmets and flashlights for the exploration course at 300 yen extra.
The cave features a specialized adventure section where visitors navigate through complete darkness using only flashlights to experience natural cave conditions.
