Takinohai, Natural waterfall in Kozagawa, Japan

The Takinohai waterfall flows through a 200-meter riverbed with multiple small cascades and naturally formed potholes in the rock formations.

The waterfall forms part of the Koza River system, which has served as a vital water source for local communities throughout the Kii Peninsula's development.

Local fishermen gather at the waterfall basin during summer months to catch sweetfish, maintaining traditional fishing practices in the clear waters.

The adjacent roadside station Takinohai Taro provides tourist information, local product sales, and outdoor rest areas for visitors.

The riverbed features numerous circular holes created by centuries of water movement, where small stones gradually carved into the rock surface.
