Mystical Gorge Journey | Akame 48 Waterfalls | Sounds of Water & Greenery | 4K

The sound of water echoing through the ancient forest A mystical world where shades of green blend into one another I will take you all to the lush greenery of the Shikoku 48 Waterfalls. This time, we are visiting a mountainous area in Nagara City, Mie Prefecture. A valley embraced by deep forests near the border of Nara Prefecture Crimson Fourty-Eight Waterfalls The starting point of the journey is Kintetsu Railway Akameguchi Station. Then, into the mysterious valley enveloped by fresh greenery Let's set off on our journey. The train is at the border between Nara, Kyoto, and Mie Prefectures. We are racing through the Shioo Mountains. The view from the window is enveloped in the fresh, lush green of early summer. Landscape of the mountains About 1 hour and 10 minutes from Umeda Honmachi, Osaka We are soon arriving at Akameguchi Station, located on the outskirts of Iga. Here, transfer to a bus operated by Mie Transportation. We head toward the bus stop for Akabana Falls at the entrance of the canyon. The bus passed through the mountain village where rice planting had just begun. We proceed along the mountain path. About 10 minutes of being jostled on the bus We have arrived at the Akame Taki bus stop. The red-tinged 48 Waterfalls follow the flow of the Taki River, which originates in the Muroo Mountains. It is a general term for a series of waterfalls extending over approximately 4 kilometers, overlapping in multiple layers. This time, to the Western European Biwa Taki Falls We will follow a 3-kilometer walking path one way. After leaving the bus stop, pass through the row of souvenir shops lining the rooftops Let us take a step forward toward the entrance of the canyon. Beneath the sparkling young leaves, a clear stream flows gently, weaving through the shadows. Beyond the leaves' dappled sunlight, the first sight is Reisha Falls. Beyond that lies Fudō Taki, one of the five acts of the red series. Red 48 Waterfalls, a series of waterfalls of various sizes Among them, the five most renowned waterfalls are known as the "Five Falls of Akame." Five acts of Western Europe, aiming for Biwa Taki We walk along the mountain path that winds through the canyon. A world brimming with moss and greenery Unceasing sound of water It sounds as if I can hear the breathing of the deep forest. What appeared beyond the tunnel of the green peach dried fruit was One of the five famous waterfalls, Chigiri Falls. The waterfall's pool, embraced by the leafy shade of surrounding trees and deep greenery A stream cascading down the rocky surface as if spreading out a thousand hands A world where water and greenery blend together, evoking a certain nostalgic charm of an amusement park. Next, deep within the shadow of the rocks, we saw the Fubiki Falls. A 30-meter-high waterfall flowing down like a hanging piece of fabric A beautiful spectacle worthy of the name "Akame 5 acts," filled with enthusiastic applause. We continue walking deeper into the canyon. In a deep forest, rocky outcrops covered with thick moss The canyon became enveloped in a somewhat mysterious atmosphere. This is a primeval forest that remained uninhabited by humans until the middle of the Meiji period. It still strongly retains the aura of ancient times. The fantastical landscape merges with the world of Princess Mononoke. We proceed further into the depths of the canyon. Emerging within the deep green is the fourth red eye, the fifth act, the shoulder-carrying waterfall. Like being embraced by the mysterious forest, two silver streams cascade down the rocky surface, echoing as they fall. Beyond the white flow, seamlessly blending into the forest, another cascade comes into view. Beyond the waterfall, there lies the widest gorge. I keep walking as if guided by the sound of water, and now I'm finally approaching the last of the five acts, the crimson-eyed one. About 3 km from the bus stop We arrived at Iwadaki, where a single, slender stream flows beautifully through a forest. How was your trip this time?
