ภาพรวม

Kumano Nachi Taisha is dramatically positioned beside Nachi-no-Otaki, Japan's tallest single-drop waterfall at 133 meters. The waterfall itself is worshipped as a deity at the shrine's auxiliary shrine, Hirou Jinja, representing one of the most powerful expressions of nature worship in Shinto. The view of the three-story pagoda (belonging to adjacent Seiganto-ji temple) framed against the thundering waterfall is one of the most iconic and photographed scenes in Japan. The Nachi Fire Festival (Nachi-no-Hi Matsuri) on July 14 features twelve giant flaming torches carried down the ancient stone steps, creating one of Japan's most spectacular festival scenes.
