Hagoromo Falls, Natural waterfall in Daisetsuzan National Park, Japan
The Hagoromo Falls cascade down 270 meters in multiple steps, with water flowing across an 80-meter-wide rock face in Hokkaido.
Writer Keigetsu Omachi named the falls in 1918 after observing how the flowing water resembled a celestial garment in Japanese mythology.
The waterfall forms part of Japan's Top 100 Waterfalls list and stands as the highest waterfall formation in the Hokkaido region.
Visitors can access the falls through a 2-kilometer forest path from Tenninkyo Onsen Complex between mid-May and mid-November each year.
Recent landslides have transformed the surrounding area, creating new geological formations and altering the traditional viewing locations near the falls.
