More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off the coach into cool, moss-scented air and follow a stream that chatteringly guides you toward Yoro Falls. Bridges arc over water that hurries and then drops—each plunge announcing itself with a clean, metallic voice. Cherry blossoms or maples frame the path depending on season; the landscape feels impatient to be noticed.
