Gyoran no taki (暁嵐の滝) – Kamiura
Very close to Bungo Futamigaura is Gyoran no taki: affectionately dubbed “Kappa temple.” This waterfall is located at a temple which boasts an impressive amount of kappa lore, statues and tributes to the watery sprites including a statue of the king of a group of rampaging kappa getting defeated by a ruling lord at a sumo match, thus saving the townspeople. |
