To no Hetsuri
1 / 11

At a site where the Pleistocene epoch's glacial rivers carved through mountains whole, To no Hetsuri in Fukushima prefecture, shows many millennia of history laid bare. In the tower-like cliff face, where the rock was spared from the glacial river, each of the rock shapes has been given its name: Eagle Tower, Turret Tower, Lion Tower, just to name a few. With a connecting suspension bridge, you will be able to get up close to the cliff face. A great location for taking a picture, you may find that there is something profound about the peculiar forms carved from the rock.
