(3/4) I went to Aira City, Kagoshima Prefecture Prefecture "Itaide Falls" for the first time. The first is a path of trees that leads in the opposite direction to the waterfall. I didn't know if it was big by the water or the shade of the trees, but it was a strangely cool path. Thereare a short walk down to the riverside. Gari gets excited when you find a staircase like this and know that you can go down to the riverside.

(2/4) I went to Aira City, Kagoshima Prefecture Prefecture "Itaide Falls" for the first time. After crossing the Kanayama Bridge and walking in the opposite direction from the waterfall, there was a walkway and through the waterway and trees. Somehow, I like waterways, and whenever I see them, I always look into them. There was a large mossy tree stretching out its branches in the waterway here, and it was a scenery that was more exciting than the waterfall with a personal point.

(1/4) I went to Aira City, Kagoshima Prefecture Prefecture "Itaide Falls" for the first time. Unlike the waterfalls in the rough Valleys, the area around the Waterfall basin is Maintenance with good salt Ume plums, and there is a park-like atmosphere while the waterfall is worth seeing. The waterfall stream like a proper waterfall after the artificial stream at the back of the Maintenance, and I and a feeling that it might be like this Quercus serrata. Spot is strong to be able to enjoy the comfort of being surrounded by the greenery of Nature and the proper waterfall from the Car parking lot right next to it.

Between leafy vegetables such as pampas grass and knotweed It is grown with the image of blooming so that the flowers float. At this Events, I met the gardener, In addition, people who are familiar with plants participated. There is a strong response to the gardener's commentary. Feel free to ask questions. Even if you live in the Village, some people Some people don't have many opportunities to stop by the Roadside Station. Village participants also said, "I can see so many Many plants." There was an exclamation of admiration. From now until autumn, the landscape of the garden I'm looking forward to seeing how it changes. We are open until mid-October.

So many people were enjoying themselves — it was wonderful 😳✨ This time the children also had a fish-catching event where they grabbed fish by hand 😆 Surprisingly, eels were mixed in, so both kids and the adults watching were fired up 🔥🔥🔥 The vibe was “Bring one back for sure!” 🤣 haha After the excitement there was weighing and an awards ceremony 🏆✨ There were awards for highest total catch from 1st to 3rd place, plus a separate big-fish prize 🙌 The 1st-place total-catch winner landed 4.16 kg of fish 🎉👏 That’s a bit more than two 2-liter PET bottles worth of fish 😲‼ Amazing 👏 Congratulations to the champion 😆💕 The big-fish prize went to a second-year junior high student who caught a hefty 34 cm fish and placed admirably 🤩 Where could such a big fish have been hiding?! Congratulations 🥳👏 The raffle afterward featured a row of luxurious prizes 🫢 With kids and adults smiling, the fishing tournament wrapped up 🙌 Now that Obon and the fishing tournament are over, the weather is slowly starting to cool… When it’s hot you want summer to end quickly, but once you sense its end you feel a bit wistful 😌 Let’s stay well and keep going strong despite Obon fatigue and the heat 🕺✨
