I was not expecting much from Kegon Falls - we were there near the end of fall and much of the foliage at the top of the mountain was already gone. It was right down the road from our ryokan but we decided to drive over anyway as it was chilly and we were going to head down the mountain afterward.

When you visit other water falls, you can understand why this is male waterfall.…

These falls will definitely be on your itinerary if you are passing through. Beautiful falls with two viewing platforms. Shops have been built close by so well worth a look.

If they said this is the third most beautiful waterfall in the entire of Japan.. I cannot imagine how the first and second would look like. The view was worth the trip for and just a short walk with a couple of steps to take. But nothing too difficult in the Japanese walking standards.…
