Nachi Falls |
|
|
|
These pictures are from my visit to Nachi Falls in September, 1999. About 20 or so JETs travelled all the way down to the South of Wakayama to view the largest waterfall in Japan. Even if the waterfall itself is somewhat less than spectacular, the surrounding scenery and hiking made it a great day out! |

The JET gang in front of the Falls! Shortly before the heavens opened and soaked us all! |

...that you aren`t supposed to swim in apparently! We only found this out afterwards of course. |
|
|
After the perilous hike, we finally arrive at our destination...one of the sacred pools of the area... |
