| GENBIKEI Gorge |
National natural monument |
|
 |
Genbikei Gorge was formed when the dacite tuff deposited by the eruption of Mt. Kurikoma was eroded by the waters of the Iwai River. It is rich in various features such as strange rocks, waterfalls, and deep abysses, but the development of potholes in the riverbed is particularly notable, and it is a valuable geological resource. The beauty of the gorge continues for a total length of 2 kilometers, changing its shape and form, and you can enjoy the magnificent scenery created by nature along with the beautiful water currents colored in emerald green and pastel blue. It is said that the first lord of the Sendai domain, Date Masamune, praised the beauty of Genbikei Gorge, which changes with the seasons, saying, "Matsushima and Genbi are my two most scenic spots." |
