Minoo Falls is the waterfall a quasi-national park was drawn around. The 33-meter cascade — written variously as Minoo-taki and known also as Minoo Otaki, the "Great Minoo Falls" — stands inside Meiji no Mori Mino Quasi-National Park in Minoo City, Osaka Prefecture, and holds a place among Japan's official Top 100 Waterfalls. Its significance lies partly in that address: a nationally listed waterfall within a protected forest park in the immediate orbit of Osaka, where the park designation, invoking the Meiji era in its name, ties the fall into one of Japan's formally commemorated landscapes rather than leaving it a remote mountain secret.
