観音滝公園

The Kannon Falls Park features a two-stream waterfall descending along a 20-meter cliff face within a forested valley in Kagoshima Prefecture.

Construction of a hydroelectric power plant began at Kannon Falls in 1898, but the project halted due to insufficient water flow capacity.

The park contains a temple dedicated to Kannon, the Buddhist deity of mercy, which draws visitors for religious ceremonies throughout the year.

The park charges entrance fees of 2,500 yen for adults and 1,300 yen for elementary school students, with free admission for younger children.

The park integrates a natural river pool system where visitors can swim during summer months while fireflies illuminate the evening landscape.
