Photos of Mitarai Gorge

Some days, I want more than just the view of autumn leaves from the car window. I want to get out and walk beside the river, listening to the water. That’s when I head to Mitarai Gorge. In early November, I’ll pull on my coat and make my way to the suspension bridge. From there, I can see the water below and the leaves overhead all at once.
