Japan's Three Great Valleys - Kankakei Gorge in Shodoshima

Kankakei is one of the three largest valleys in Japan, formed by volcanic activity 13 million years ago. The rocks that have been carved out over a long period of time are so varied and unique that you never get tired of looking at them. You can also overlook the Seto Inland Sea in the distance. When going to Chengli to Hongyunting Station, the most popular option is of course to take the mountain cable car from Hongyunting at the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain and then transfer to the cable car back and forth. Kanxiakei is a popular spot for viewing maple leaves. What’s special is that you can drink red maple soda water made from 100% red leaf essence. It is available at the mountaintop station and restaurants on the island.
