Shiroyama Fudo Falls
A waterfall with a drop of Approx. 15 meters on the mountainside of Shiroyama in Sakaide City, Kagawa Prefecture, also known as a power spot. It got its name from the time Kobo Daishi carved an image of Fudo Myoo into the rock wall during his training. Fudo Myoo is enshrined right beside the falls, and it is also said that ascetic practitioners once trained under the waterfall. Around it, exposed rock surfaces containing sanukite, a mineral unique to Sanuki, create a landscape that evokes the power of ancient times.
The path isn’t hard to walk, and you can get there pretty quickly. The waterfall is small, but the water feels very clean, and it’s nice and cool standing next to it. It’s a great place to come and unwind a bit in the summer. The surrounding area feels foresty, quiet, and a little spiritual, and it’s not the kind of place packed with tourists.
The downside is that it really is on the small side, so after taking a few photos, you’re pretty much done. There also aren’t many other facilities nearby, so it may not be worth coming from far away just for this. -
Nachi Waterfall
Kumano-Nachi Taisha is the main shrine of over 4000 Kumano Shrines dotting Japan. This waterfall stands within the holy area, The grandest fall in Japan is 133m-tall, 13m-wide at the mouth, where water begins to fall, and the plunge pool is 10m-deep, and pours over 1 ton/second of water through three wedges which merges as one fall, thus called “Three Stream Fall.”
I always take part in the ritual of changing the sacred rope at Nachi Waterfall every July and December. It really brings a sense of peace to my heart. ❤️

Kumano Hongu Taisha Shrine
Ketsumi-mikono-okami is enshrined here. The shrine was built during the era of Japan’s 10th emperor, Sujin. Designated as a world cultural heritage by UNESCO in 2004.
Kumano Hongu Taisha is a place people really want to visit for worship. You can reach this majestic shrine by trekking along different mountain paths, which can be long and challenging. The journey is all about seeking spiritual comfort and really represents the spirit and culture of the Japanese people.
