Atera Seven Falls, Cascading waterfall system in Shinshiro, Japan

The Atera Seven Falls consists of seven distinct drops with a total height of 26 meters, formed by conglomerate fault scarps along the Atera River.

The Japanese government designated these waterfalls as both a Place of Scenic Beauty and Natural Monument in 1934, recognizing their geological significance.

The Kodaki Stone at the base of the falls attracts visitors seeking fertility blessings, following traditional Japanese beliefs about the location's spiritual powers.

Visitors can reach the falls by taking a 15-minute walk from the parking area, which accommodates 150 vehicles and offers vendor services during weekends from April to November.

The water flow has carved deep basins at the base of each tier, with the fifth fall creating a 7-meter-deep pool in the natural rock formation.
