Roadside station “Taneyamagahara Poran”

Taneyamagahara, also called Mt. Mt. Mt. Miyazawa, is a plateau that Kenji Miyazawa loved very much. Kenji wrote ``Night on the Galactic Railway'' and ``Kaze no Matasaburo'', as well as many poems and tanka, based on the scenery and weather here. Roadside Station Taneyamagahara Poran is located near the entrance to Taneyamagahara, which is located at a relay point on National Route 397 that connects the southern part of the prefecture with the coast. The rest facility "Poran" is designed to resemble a star, and was built by Kesen carpenters who are proud of their traditional skills using wood sourced within the town. It is a great place to find souvenirs, with a variety of specialty products grown in the rich natural environment.

Takikan Cave

``Ama no Iwato Waterfall'' falls from a crack in the marble inside the limestone cave. With a height of 29m and a width of 1m, it is one of the largest waterfalls in Japan. The place where the waterfall is located is a cave dome with a circumference of 50 meters and a height of 60 meters, and the sound of the waterfall reverberates inside the dome. There is also a restaurant outside the limestone cave where you can eat the famous ``Taki Nagashi Soba'' that flows from a long bamboo tube. *Taki Nagashi Soba is currently closed due to demolition work being carried out due to the construction of a new facility. (Scheduled to reopen in April 2020)
