Lunch and Waterfalls

After visiting  Nichiren Shoshu Shimonobo, and seeing/smelling the wisteria, we had lunch at the Lotus Land Restaurant, a whole foods vegetarian place and a favorite of ours.

Next, we visited Otedome Waterfalls and Shiraito Waterfalls. We visited this place together in August 2016, almost 10 years ago! 

Shiraito Falls are part of the Fuji-Hakone-Izu National Park and have been protected as a Japanese National Monument since 1936. In 2013 the waterfall was added to the World Heritage list as part of the Fujisan Cultural Site.

Otodome Falls are smaller and a five minute walk from Shiraito Falls.

A short walk down many steps and we could see Shiraito Waterfalls.

To the right of the main part of the falls, the waterfall stretches quite a ways.

The signs say don’t go in the water, but many people can’t help themselves.

Looking back away from the waterfalls.

I enjoy site seeing with my knowledgable friends!
