We visited the famous secluded attraction Sandan Falls in Ashibetsu, Hokkaido. As soon as you arrive, you'll see a simple and elegant wooden landmark sign at the entrance, surrounded by lush green forest. Following the trail, you can admire the unusual sight of the Sorachi River's rushing water cascading over layers of rock like a staircase. The powerful water creates a truly magnificent scene, along with plenty of negative ions and phytoncides. The scenery here is peaceful and natural, far from the crowds and noise. Whether you come in summer to escape the heat and listen to the water or in fall to see the autumn leaves, this is a great little-known photo spot for exploring the natural scenery around Furano and Ashibetsu in Hokkaido!

The scenery in the valley is absolutely stunning, and the stream is so clear you can see right to the bottom. It's like a real-life landscape painting.

The path inside isn't very easy to walk, so make sure to wear comfortable shoes. It's best to use the restroom beforehand since it's not very convenient along the way.
The canyon scenery is truly beautiful, and it feels cool and refreshing in the summer. -

Walking through Sandan-kyo really reminded me of Guilin in Guangxi, China. It's amazing to see what nature can create.
