    Chichibu Kegon Falls is about 600 meters deeper in from Suisenji Temple, the 34th stop of the Chichibu Kannon Pilgrimage. With a fall of over 10 meters, the abrupt fall raises white water in a refreshing spray. At the head of the falls is a statue of Fudo Myo-o with eyes wide open.

  • Kuroyama-santaki Falls
    Travel / Tourism
    Saitama Pref. Irumagunogosemachi Kuroyama
    Kuroyama-santaki Falls is the collective term for Odaki, Medaki, and Tengudaki Falls on the Mitaki River which flows through Kuroyama Prefectural Nature Park. It’s a gorgeous scenic spot to take in the verdure of spring or colorful autumn leaves, and it has been selected as one of Japan’s top 100 tourist destinations. It is also known as a sacred training ground, used by Buddhist mountain ascetics since the days of old. An event is held to consecrate the waterfalls on the first Sunday of July every year. A walkway and hiking trails let visitors access all three falls.

  • Marugami Falls
    Travel / Tourism
    Saitama Pref. Chichibugunoganomachi Ryoukamikomori
    This 76-meter three-tiered waterfall is at the foot of Mt. Ryogami. There is a parking lot and a path to a lookout with a view of the falls on Prefectural Route 367 on the way to the Ryogami-Sanroku Campground. It's the only cascade in Saitama Prefecture that's counted among the 100 Elections of the Waterfall in Japan. Its beautiful color is due to its relatively small volume of quietly flowing water. The area hasn't been heavily affected by tourism development, so the natural surroundings are relatively untouched. It's a great spot for hiking, particularly in the fall when the foliage changes color.

Eclipsed by neighboring Tokyo, Saitama is often branded as the sleepy suburbs. However, look a little deeper and you’ll uncover quaint towns bursting with history and crafts from the kurazukuri Edo-period clay houses of Kawagoe to the ancient tree-enveloped temples of Chichibu.
