Sakura Falls, Waterfall in Hita, Japan
The Sakura Falls creates a 15-meter cascade where water flows over an overhanging rock formation, producing a wide spray pattern.
The waterfall earned recognition in the Bungo kokushi historical records, a significant text dating back to the eighth century in Japan.
Japanese writers and artists from the Edo period have documented this waterfall through multiple poems, paintings, and literary works.
Visitors can reach the waterfall through a maintained walking path that extends approximately 10 minutes from Amagase Station.
Between June and August, cherry salmon display their natural behavior by leaping up the waterfall during their seasonal migration.
