Jōren Falls, Waterfall in Yugashima district, Izu, Japan

The water of Joren Falls descends from basalt cliffs with a height of 25 meters and width of 7 meters into the Kano River.

The Japanese Ministry of Environment added Joren Falls to the list of Japan's Top 100 Waterfalls in 1990, recognizing its natural importance.

The waterfall holds a connection to Japanese folklore through tales of the jorogumo, a spider entity that transforms into a woman.

The location offers parking facilities, souvenir stores, and bus stops at the top of the stairs leading to the observation points.

The clear water flowing from the falls creates perfect conditions for growing Amagi wasabi plants along the river banks.

Location: Izu

Part of: Kano River, Japan's Top 100 Waterfalls
