At Shosenkyo Gorge you can enjoy winter-only scenery. The dramatic Sengataki Waterfall is not to be missed.

Hello 😃 This is the main building of Yamanashi Wine Kingdom. Cold days continue, but the clear air here in Shosenkyo Gorge feels refreshing.
Right now, beside the main building we are trying our hand at making “ice objects” that take advantage of this cold weather!
After exploring the famous Senga Falls and the curious “Stone Gate” along the promenade further ahead — a rock that looks like it might stick together but doesn’t — be sure to take a look at the “ice objects.”
Today we saw rainbows at both Senga Falls and the ice objects!
When you visit, please dress warmly and enjoy your time♪

Hello! This is Genshosenkyo. Cold days continue, but the air is so clear that the rock faces along the promenade are fully visible, creating a breathtaking view.
Around Senga Falls and along the river, the rocks are dusted in white ice,
and the way the mountain stream rushes between those rocks is truly beautiful (sparkling).
Fewer tourists visit in this season, so you can fully enjoy the great outdoors.
If you listen closely, the sound of the wind, flowing water, and birdsong is deeply soothing.
Our shop is the closest to the power spot Senga Falls.😃
After exploring Shosenkyo Gorge, please stop by Genshosenkyo to recharge your energy.
We look forward to seeing you all❣️

Hello, this is the Shosenkyo Tourist Association. The “juhyo” I introduced the other day looked so beautiful when seen up close on a sunny day that it seemed as if crystals were being born. It truly felt like Shosenkyo.
In the first photo, I placed a crystal cluster on the juhyo.
Can you see where it is?

When the sunlight hits, they glitter and sparkle beautifully!
Garnet, the birthstone for January 💎, symbolizes friendship, passion, and fruition.
