#cherryblossom25 Review (Traveler using #cherryblossom25): Fukuroda Falls in cherry blossom season is nothing short of poetic. Imagine a massive waterfall crashing down in tiered layers, framed by hills just bursting with soft pink sakura. I visited during the early bloom, and mist from the falls caught the morning sun, creating tiny rainbows among the petals. The walking trails around the falls were gorgeous, with branches hanging low enough to brush against. The contrast between the raw power of the water and the delicate blossoms made it feel like nature was showing off. For my #cherryblossom25 post, I captured the falls through a frame of cherry branches, and it felt like the perfect symbol of spring’s energy. If you want a spot that combines drama and beauty — and gives you something a little different than just rows of trees — Fukuroda Falls is an absolute must.

We recommend a day trip.

| Champion Chicken & Delicious Food and Relaxing Accommodation Experience. Fukuroda Falls is one of the three most famous waterfalls in Japan. Standing in front of it, the spectacular feeling is simply beyond words. The water flows like white silk pouring down from a high place, hitting the rocks below, splashing layers of water, and making a rushing sound, as if it were a passionate movement played by nature. Standing next to it, quietly feeling its powerful force, my whole body and mind relaxed unconsciously. It is really a natural beauty that should not be missed. ♨️After enjoying the waterfall, we came to a traditional Japanese hotel with a unique charm nearby. As soon as you walk into the hotel, you can feel the full Japanese style. There are different themed decorations in different seasons. When we came, it happened to be decorated with apples. You can see the ingenious embellishment of apple elements everywhere, which is particularly fresh and unique. What's more surprising is that the hotel also provides free Costa coffee. It's so pleasant to have a cup of coffee after playing. The room we stayed in was very large, spacious, and comfortable. When we opened the window, the beautiful scenery was presented in front of us. The picture was really like a natural picture, which made people feel particularly happy. Moreover, the hotel's buffet is also very exquisite, with a wide variety of dishes, including traditional Japanese cuisine and delicious Wagyu steak. Each dish shows the chef's dedication and meets the taste needs of different people. It is also a pleasure to soak in the hot spring here. Soaking in the warm spring water, the fatigue of the day seems to dissipate with the steam, and the whole body becomes extremely relaxed and comfortable, feeling that the whole person is re-energized. 🐔The Okukuji area in the northern part of Ibaraki Prefecture has always been the production area of Okukuji chicken, and it is one of the main areas for raising Japanese chicken. This kind of chicken is very special, chewy, and has a strong taste. It has been highly praised since ancient times. We specially went to a restaurant called "Mimaki" to taste the chicken, and I really recommend it to everyone! The chicken is cooked just right, and the rich aroma spreads as soon as you put it in your mouth. The more you chew, the more fragrant it is. It is really delicious. I am still drooling when I think about it now. 💕The accommodation, food, and scenery experience in Ibaraki Prefecture this time is so great. It is really a multiple enjoyment of vision, taste, and body and mind. If you have the opportunity, you must come to Ibaraki Prefecture to experience it. I believe you will fall in love with it as much as I do.

I went there in November. The contrast between the autumn leaves and the waterfall was amazing. There are many stalls along the path to the waterfall, so you won't get bored. Fukuroda Falls is 120 meters high and 73 meters wide, and it is truly magnificent to see in person, so I definitely recommend going there. There were many people sightseeing, but everyone was willing to take turns taking photos, so it wasn't too crowded. I'd definitely like to go in the winter, as I heard you can see the frozen waterfall. #HongKongFreeAirTickets #FukurodaFalls

We went to Fukuroda Falls, famous for its frozen waterfall. This is my fifth visit here, and it shows different aspects throughout the year. The temperature rose a little after the afternoon of the 29th, and unfortunately it was only about 80% frozen, but it was still well worth seeing❄ #FukurodaFalls #AmazingView #IbarakiPrefecture
