Yoro, Mountain town in Gifu Prefecture, Japan

Yoro stretches between the eastern slopes of the Yoro Mountains and the Ibi River plains, encompassing 72 square kilometers of varied terrain.

The town received its official establishment in 1897 during the Meiji restoration reforms and merged with Takeda town in 1954 to form current Yoro.

The Legend of Koshi narrates how a son discovered a spring flowing with sake near the waterfall, which he shared with his aging father.

Visitors can reach the town via the Yoro Railway line and access multiple attractions through the network of 148 connected pathways in Yoro Park.

The Site of Reversible Destiny features nine interconnected pavilions and the Critical Resemblance House, which displays a roof shaped like Gifu Prefecture.
