Hello everyone, this is the En'emon Folklore Museum. Shosenkyo Gorge has transformed beautifully into spring! 😃✨
The cherry blossoms in the parking lot are in full bloom! 🌸❗️
Despite the recent strong winds, they are blooming vibrantly. 😊
Although many petals have fallen near the entrance by Nagatoro Bridge, the area around Senga Falls is just reaching its peak bloom. 🌸🌸
As various flowers will soon start to bloom one after another, we invite you to come and visit Shosenkyo! 😃
We have a variety of quartz, the birthstone for April, including raw stones, polished crystals, and flower-shaped ones. ✨✨
Please feel free to stop by during your stroll.

Hello. This is Waraji, a Koshu local cuisine restaurant. The news of cherry blossoms already in full bloom arrived earlier than in many other parts of the country, and though it’s the season that makes you feel spring’s arrival, here at Shosenkyo Gorge the trees need a little more time to reach full bloom 🌸
The gorge’s towering rock faces still hold a touch of chill, yet each day brings a gentler hint of spring filling the air.
On clear mornings, the crisp air carries the bush warbler’s beautiful song, soothing the heart like a natural soundtrack 🎶
Against the grand scenery, these moments of slowly approaching spring feel like a luxurious experience unique to Shosenkyo Gorge ⛰️
If you feel a bit peckish during your stroll, please drop by our shop 😊
At this chilly time of year, we recommend Yamanashi’s specialty, houtou (thick vegetable noodle stew) 🍲
A gentle bowl brimming with pumpkin, root vegetables, mushrooms, and other plentiful vegetables warms you to the core and eases the heart ✨
Enjoy the comforting taste that soaks into a body chilled by the outdoors.
Waiting at our entrance to greet you is Houtou no Tanuchan, our beloved houtou raccoon character, who is eagerly looking forward to meeting visitors 🐻❄️ (It’s a raccoon!)
Its charming figure is sure to make you want to take a photo 📸
At Shosenkyo Gorge, where spring arrives slowly, come and enjoy a time that warms both heart and body.
We sincerely look forward to your visit 🌿

Hello! This is the Shosenkyo Tourist Association. Spring is starting to show itself little by little in Shosenkyo Gorge…🌸 The mitsuba azaleas that usually peak around this time are a bit slower this year. Many buds still dot the gorge, so the full bloom will likely be a little way off.
Meanwhile, at Tenkorin we found a tree that bloomed a little early✨ The surroundings remain quiet, but that tree seemed to be announcing the start of spring.
Shosenkyo will soon burst into color, and we’re looking forward to it. The sight of full bloom will have to wait just a bit longer🌿

Hello 😃 This is Yamanashi Wine Kingdom Main Building. March has arrived, and Shosenkyo Gorge is slowly showing signs of spring.
It’s still a bit chilly, but the mountain trees are starting to take on a hint of green, and the landscape’s expression is softening 🌿
Shosenkyo Gorge was once known as a source of quartz, and the beautiful crystals mined here helped Yamanashi become known as the City of Gems ✨
Shosenkyo Gorge is also home to Kanazakura Shrine, which enshrines quartz as its sacred object, making it a particularly recommended spot for fans of stones and power stones 💎
It’s a mystical place where you can feel nature and history ⛩️
When you visit Shosenkyo Gorge, be sure to see Senga Falls.
The view of the waterfall up close is full of power and so photogenic you’ll want to capture it on camera 📸
When touring Shosenkyo Gorge, please stop by Yamanashi Wine Kingdom Main Building.
At this time of year, we offer wines that feel bright and springlike 🍷🌸
We sincerely look forward to your visit.

Hello, this is the Shosenkyo Gorge Tourism Association. Yesterday we enjoyed a clear blue sky.
The first photo is Senga Falls. Even after mid-February it still wears ice, crashing down with a thunderous roar and an overwhelmingly powerful presence. A crisp, wintry beauty unique to the season spreads across the scene.
The second photo is Kakuen Peak. Its silhouette, emblematic of Shosenkyo Gorge, looks like a sumi-e ink painting.
Please enjoy the contrast of stillness and motion that stands out in the clear air. There are vistas you can meet only in winter. We sincerely look forward to your visit.
