[Many waterfalls fall gracefully within a ravine that extends for more than 4 kilometers.]
Although it is named 'Shiju-Hattaki' (meaning forty-eight waterfalls), there are actually more than forty-eight waterfalls. 'Forty-eight' is a significant large number in Japan. Visitors from all over the country come to see the exquisite beauty of this natural ravine. At the entrance of Shiju-Hattaki there is also a breeding & display center of salamanders, which has a salamander collection gathered from all over the world. This species of creature has been around for more than 30 million years ago and is designated a specially protected animal.
