[Wakayama] Impressive! A large waterfall you can see up close

Visited in April 2023 * Nachi Falls It is said that there are 48 waterfalls in the entire mountain, and the one with the largest drop is Nachi Otaki. ✨ This waterfall is also called Ichinotaki, and is 133m high, 13m wide at the mouth, and 10m deep at the bottom. 😊 Relatively close to the upstream of this waterfall are waterfalls called Ninotaki and Sannotaki, and the three waterfalls from Ichinotaki to Sannotaki are collectively designated as a national scenic spot. ✨ At Hiroki Shrine, the waterfall itself is worshipped as a sacred object☺️ Therefore, there is no shrine dedicated to the gods at Hiroki Shrine, and the shrine worships Nachi-Mitoki directly☺️ Hiraki Shrine has a very long history, and originally the gods of the waterfall and the gods of Kumano were worshipped at the site of Hiroki Shrine on Mount Nachi, and it is said that in the 5th year of Emperor Nintoku's reign, Kumano Nachi Taisha was built and the shrine was moved to its current location✨ #Pilgrimage#NachiWaterfall #HirakiShrine　#PilgrimageToKumano
