群馬 諏訪峡 Gunma Suwa-kyou Suwa Gorge
|
Suwa Gorge located in Minakami Town in Gunma Prefecture is a gorge created by swift flow of the Tone River. With oddly-shaped stones and rocks such as Benten-iwa Rock continuing on both sides of the stream, it is a representative scenic spot in Minakami Town. As the promenade is finely arranged along the stream, visitors can fully enjoy its beautiful scenery in each season including tender green in summer and crimson foliage in fall.
The stone monument inscribed with a poem by Yosano Akiko is erected beside the Sasame Bridge at the entrance of the gorge. The clear flow of the Tone River and Mt. Tanigawadake viewed from the bridge is exquisite. The Tamasudare-no-taki Waterfall with a height of 30 m and the Ryugase Waterfall flow down on the stream. In the vicinity are Momiji Park and Suwakyo Hot Springs, which provide visitors with a variety of activities.
