Nōmizo Falls, Artificial waterfall in Kimitsu, Japan

Water flows through a stone tunnel carved into the rock face, creating reflections on the surface of the circular cave opening.

The waterfall emerged during the Edo period when local farmers carved irrigation channels to supply water to their rice fields.

Photographers gather at the site during spring and autumn equinox periods to capture the sunlight reflecting on the water surface.

The walking path from the parking area to the waterfall takes 10 minutes, with the best visiting times occurring during early morning hours.

Light entering through the cave creates a heart-shaped reflection on the water surface during specific times in March and September.
