I visited right when the autumn leaves were at their peak. The view of the whole gorge from the suspension bridge is just the best spot to take it all in.

Gandate Gorge
Located at the confluence of the Osaka River and Nigori River, Gandate Gorge is home to the majestic Gandate Rock Wall, designated as a Natural Monument of Gifu Prefecture. This colossal rock formation stands 72 meters high and 120 meters wide, created by the lava flow from Mount Ontake's eruption about 54,000 years ago. The unique geological structure, known as "columnar jointing," gives the appearance of numerous columns standing side by side.
The towering rock walls and winding gorge really make you feel the incredible power of nature.

Odawara Castle
Odawara Castle once served as the base of the Hojo clan during the Sengoku period before becoming the Okubo clan residence during the Edo period. Today this beloved symbol of Odawara keeps a revamped castle grounds that’s redeveloped as a park centered around the reconstructed main keep.
From the top of the main keep, you get a wide, sweeping view of all of Odawara City.
