Nanadaru Waterfalls- Shizuoka

On a rainy day, we went on a hike to see the seven waterfalls called nana-daru　in Kawazu.　The river was full with water in mid summer beautifully green.

The main waterfall called Oodaru cannot be views by noraml viewers. The waterfall property is now owned by a hotpsring motel and only the motel customers can enjoy the oodaru. the rest of the seven waterfalls are captured below.

■Kamadaru

Kama means basin and the waterfall name is basin- waterfall.

■Ebi daru

Ebi means prawn and the waterfall name is prawn- waterfall.Sorry No pictures.

A little way down the lane near Kanidaru, you can capture the stream flowing down through stones beautifully creating thousands of tiny waterfalls.

■Hebidaru

Hebi means snake and the waterfall name is snake- waterfall.

■Shokeidaru

This is the main attraction along the hike. There is a statue of a man ad woman resting by the waterfall. The photo was pinned to the very top of this post to imply the main attraction.

It is great clean water, rushing and gushing as the water roots are full to the last night rain.

■Kanidaru

Kani stands for crab but the waterfall lokks nothing like a crab . It is a narrow gush of water falling from very low height to a pool below.

Sorry No pictures.

A little way down the lane another set of statues are erected along the river. The purpose , or the message is unknown but at least the hikers feel that they are not alone..

■Deaidaru

Deai means meeting and the waterfall name is meeting - waterfall.

Probably the name came in to existence as two water falls meet at this place.

Lovers come here wishing luck for their love and singles come to wish that they find their partner soon. There are heart shaped wooden leaves, so that you can write your wish and hang it by the waterfall, wishing them to come true one day.

The two joined water bodies fall over this man made wall creating another waterfall which in not accounted for.

Thank you for the PTU set for making this trip happen.

Onabe - Japanese Hot Pot

15/05/2010 It was after spending the evening at Thai Festival 2010 in Yoyogi,Shibuya. The dinner was decided on "Nabe" at a shibuya chain restaurant of Japanese hot pot. I have always loved nabe. I have had shabu shabu hotpot, sukiyaki hotpot and seafood hotpot at Japanese houses and this was the first time I am having it at a restaurant. So I thought of sharing some moments of the supreme happiness of eating Nabe - the Japanese hotpot. Beef, eggs and the vegetables The whole table of ingredients for the Nabe in one shot Shabu shabu and sukiyaki on one hotplate finally you dip the boiled slice of meat in the "tare" and eat. This chain restaurant is in Shibuya and limitless "tabehoudai" for less than 2000yen. Good service and loved the meat. All Rights Reserved.

Nishizawa Gorge - Yamanashi

2016/11/03 "The dullness around fails to hide its Full Glory ." Nishizawa Gorge is located in the very west of Yamanashi, close to the boundaries of Saitama and Nagano. Arakawa River flows through Chichibu mountains creating the Nishizawa Gorge. It is a hiking course of 4 hour walking along the river through muddy trails in the woods watching the river falling , flowing and gushing towards the city. Along the way we come across bridges and waterfalls. Too bad I could not capture any of the bridges but managed to capture the waterfalls which will be posted under a different post. . It was November and the mid Autumn. The water level was low and bearably cold. Here is Arakawa river flowing down the rocky steps through the stones. We walk up the river trail while the river flows in the opposite direction. The trails are narrow, and muddy at some parts. Some parts are safe guarded by metal chains and some parts are not. A little missed ste...
