Nachi Falls and Three-story Pagoda

Nachi Falls, seen through the vermilion three-story pagoda, is a spectacular spot that represents Wakayama. Its composition encapsulates the beauty of Japan and is very popular with foreign tourists.

撮影のコツ

The approach to Okunoin, Mount Koya

The mystical approach to the shrine is lined with over 200,000 gravestones and memorial towers amidst a grove of cedar trees that are hundreds of years old. The scenery is particularly fantastical in the morning mist, making it perfect for capturing a spiritual atmosphere.
