Okura Waterfall

Okura Waterfall [案仂の彩; おくらのふし] is a waterfall located on the southern face of Mount Okura on Shimi Island in Zōhai Prefecture. It is by far the highest waterfall in the prefecture, descending more than three-quarters of the way down the summit of Okura. 
The waterfall has often been sited as the most well-known and popular mountain waterfall in Zōhai, mostly due to its impressive height and the shrine which sits nearby. The shrine itself was constructed 350 years ago, and is dedicated to Sushiko, a local water deity. In local legend, the Okura Falls are said to be the birthplace of the benevolent spirit, whose travels across ancient Daizō created all the springs and rivers in the land.
In wintertime, access to the shrine is prohibited due to safety risks; when ice and frost form on the rocks it becomes extremely hazardous. However, in summer the waterfall sees a large number of visitors. The area has been classified as a National Treasure by the Kantonese government.
