Genbikei Gorge/Geibikei Gorge

Enjoy the beauty of two gorges, each with its own unique atmosphere.

Ichinoseki City in southern Iwate Prefecture is home to two awe-inspiring gorges sculpted by nature over millennia that are both designated as natural monuments. The Iwai River, which has Mt. Kurikoma as its water source, has stunning rock formations, waterfalls, and other dynamic scenery along a 2-kilometer stretch, and a well-maintained promenade along the river makes Genbikei Gorge an unforgettable place for a stroll. The Geibikei Gorge is famous for boat trips down the gently flowing Satetsu River, with 100-meter cliffs soaring on both banks, while listening to boatmen sing Geibi Oiwake, a traditional Japanese folk song, while maneuvering the boat with a single pole. Each gorge reveals different expressions as the seasons change.

KAMENOI HOTEL ICHINOSEKI

Kamenoi Hotel Ichinoseki is an ideal base for sightseeing in Hiraizumi, a World Heritage site, and Genbikei Gorge, a place of breathtaking natural beauty. It is only a 5-minute drive from the Ichinoseki Interchange on the Tohoku Expressway and a 20-minute shuttle bus ride from Ichinoseki Station on the Tohoku Shinkansen Line. With guest rooms overlooking the renowned Mt. Kurikoma, soothing open-air hot spring baths, and the rich flavors of Iwate’s sea, mountains, and villages, your stay will be truly memorable.

Chichibugahama Beach

A breathtaking beach with a spectacular view known as the Sky Mirror

Chichibugahama Beach is a beach in Mitoyo City, Kagawa Prefecture, known for its stunning sunset views. The 1-kilometer-long beach features calm, shallow waters where the tide recedes up to 500 meters at low tide. Its pristine sand and clear waters attract many people of all ages each year in summer, especially families. The tide pools on the beach, especially stunning at sunset and referred to as the “Seto-no-Yunagi,” create a spectacular and photogenic scene known as the Sky Mirror on calm days, reminiscent of the Uyuni Salt Flats.
