Waterfall "Shooting Star !

by Kazu

At the foot of the waterfall "Ginga" which means Galaxy in Japanese, there is a wide parking space and souvenir shops.

The parking space was used as a national route that connected my hometown Kitami City and Asahikawa until the end of twentieth century.

A variety of waterfalls are pouring tons of water in a second from the highland called "Kamuimintara"which means the garden where the deities are romping around in the language of Ainu, the indigenous people of Japan. The waterfall "Ryusei" is one of them.
