Banryukyo Gorge, where a secret story known as the Banryukyo Legend is passed down

The scale of the landscape is like a miniature garden of landscape beauty, but the canyon is surrounded by mountains on all sides, with cliffs several tens of meters high towering almost vertically, and three waterfalls, large and small, flowing into the cliffs. There is a sad legend in this Banryu Gorge that tells of a long time ago, when a samurai and two women were caught in a love triangle, the two women fell into the pool of the waterfall and turned into dragons, screaming and fighting as they fell. Unable to bear the horror of his crime, the samurai committed suicide.
