Sogi Falls, Waterfall in Isa, Japan

The water of Sendai River cascades down a 210-meter-wide rock face, forming a 12-meter-high waterfall in the Ookuchi Basin.

The area around the waterfall served as a vital water transport route for rice during the Edo period through manually dredged channels.

The Shimizu Shrine near the waterfall holds religious ceremonies for marriage and safe childbirth, drawing visitors from across the region.

The waterfall observation area maintains parking facilities for 200 vehicles and remains open throughout the year with peak seasons in spring and autumn.

The abandoned Sogi Power Station, built in 1909, stands near the falls and functions as an educational center for renewable energy.
