Todoro Falls (轟の滝 (高知県)) — waterfall in Kochi, Japan

Todoro Falls

轟の滝 (高知県)
Top 100 Shikoku Kochi Prefecture ↓ 82 m

Todoro Falls carries an unusually heavy load of official honors for a single cascade. The 82-meter waterfall in Kahoku, part of the city of Kami in Kochi Prefecture, is both a prefectural natural monument and a prefectural place of scenic beauty. It also holds a place among Japan's Top 100 Waterfalls and was chosen as number 25 of the Eighty-Eight Views of Shikoku, where its official designation reads "the waterfall where the Heike legend of Tamaori-hime sleeps" — a reference to a local tale linking the falls to the fugitive Taira clan and the weaver princess Tamaori-hime. The name itself, Todoro, evokes the roar of falling water.
