Nakatsu Gorge, Mountain canyon in Niyodogawa, Japan
The Nakatsu Gorge extends for 2.3 kilometers along the Nakatsu River, featuring large rock formations and natural pools with deep blue waters.
The geological formation of Nakatsu Gorge occurred over 300 million years ago through tectonic plate movements, creating the current landscape of cliffs and boulders.
Stone statues of the Seven Gods of Good Fortune are positioned along the canyon's path, representing traditional Japanese deities that bring prosperity.
The walking trail through Nakatsu Gorge connects to Uryu Falls, with parking available for 30 vehicles and a nearby hot spring facility for visitors.
At Uryu Falls, a traditional rope hangs above the 20-meter cascade, marking the boundary between the divine realm and the mortal world.
