Visit Oita

Sakura Falls, located in Amagase Town, Hita City, is a beautiful waterfall cherished by both poets and painters throughout history for its elegance. The name "Sakura Falls" comes from the way the water spray, created as the flowing water hits protruding rocks, resembles cherry blossom petals. The falls are about a 10-minute walk from JR Amagase Station along a well-maintained path, making them easily accessible. Standing near the waterfall, you can fully enjoy the natural mist and the refreshing negative ions. During the autumn season, the waterfall is illuminated, creating an enchanting and dreamlike atmosphere. The area also features other waterfalls, making it an ideal spot for a waterfall-hopping adventure.
