川から紅葉が登り、頂上から滝が落ちてきます。川沿いに散策すると又銀河の滝があります。写真ととるにはとても良い場所でした。
凍っている滝、初めて見ました、雪と見分けが付かず、滝を見るには向かない季節かな、冬ってと思いました。
The best time to head to Ginga & Ryusei falls is just after sunrise. The falls faces east ward and as the sun rises behind the hills, it lights up the waterfalls. Furthermore, everyone else is still sleeping or having breakfast in the hotels, so you have the entire place to yourself. If you are able to climb, there is a observatory spot approximately 400m up from the back of the souvenir shops where you can take pictures of both the falls.
This place is filled with tourists and tough to get a clean shots. Not the most spectacular water fall though it's located between a valley.
今回は雨の後で行ったので天気はいまいちですが流量が抜群でした。両方の滝が見える展望台はちょっと歩く距離が多く、熊に注意ということで今回もパス。ここは駐車場、トイレ完備、売店もわりと立派でした。銀河の滝も歩いてすぐです。層雲峡の温泉から車で数分です。
Able to see water falls down from the mountain top since it's summer time. We were told by the guide that in winter time there might be only a small stream running down, or even all turn to be ice. It's not consider a gigantic fall but worth to see.
You can stop it for a while and take nice pictures, or go a bit walking with the stairs (if you are not afraid of moskitoes).
The Ryusei-no-Taki is also known as the Shooting Star Falls, and is one of the two famed waterfalls in Sounkyo Gorge. According to my tour guide, apparently if you look at the falls at an angle, the water would appear to spew out, resembling a shooting star… I couldn’t really visualise that but anyway, I thought it still looked pretty cool. The place tends to get overcrowded with tourists unfortunately, so it can be quite annoying to get a clear shot of the falls itself, and some tourists can get rather competitive when it comes to snapping shots, so that was the one thing I didn’t really like about the place.
environment is good but the waterfall not very attractive
park in car park and climb up stairs. the views from the opposite side are spectacular. the falls are dramatic but not the most beautiful in the world but well worth a look
