Okazaki-shi Kaore keikoku　岡崎市かおれ渓谷 Kaore Gorge in Okazaki City
Kaore Gorge is a 0.5 km gorge along the Kaore Kaido road and the Otogawa River in the northern part of Sakuragata Town in Okazaki City, Aichi Prefecture. It is a scenic spot where you can enjoy seasonal changes in the scenery including cherry blossoms in early spring, Koinobori (carp streamers) in May, tender green in summer and crimson foliage in fall.
Especially beautiful is the cherry blossom season,
when the entire gorge is colored pale pink by about 80 Somei Yoshino cherry trees. From April through May, about 200 carp streamers are set out over the upstream of the river, which create a wonderful landscape. In summer, you can enjoy forest bathing in brilliant fresh green together with refreshing sound of clear water and fresh air.
The best hiking season is from the middle of November to early December, when the gorge is surrounded with beautiful autumn leaves.

乙川（おとがわ）を代表する「かおれ渓谷」で四季折々の美しい景観と歴史を楽しむ
かおれ渓谷を流れる乙川と、毛呂（けろ）川が合流する位置にある史跡「日近城跡（ひぢかじょうあと）」は、岡崎市の指定文化財。その麓には曹洞宗の寺院「広祥院」（こうしょういん）があり、1339年、足利氏の執事であった高氏により創立され、渓谷と城跡を合わせた一帯を「日近の里」と呼び、歴史と自然が一度に味わえるスポットです。日近城は作手奥平氏の西進の拠点でした。文明10年（1478）に貞昌が日近城を築き、次男の貞直を配しました。中世山城の典型で、本曲輪、二の曲輪、三の曲輪が一列になった連郭形を成しています。近隣の河川沿いは「かおれ渓谷」と呼ばれ、市内屈指の景勝地で、特に紅葉の時期は必見です。

Kaore Keikoku かおれけいこく / かおれ渓谷 / 川浦渓谷 Kaore Valley
岐阜県 Gifu

About 7 km long.

全長約７ｋｍに及ぶ断崖の渓谷。神秘的な秘境を高さ２０ｍの橋から覗き込むと、まるで吸い込まれてしまいそう。渓谷に響く水の音に聞き入りながら、一周４０分程度の遊歩道を散策するのも◎ 落差８０ｍもある滝は下部に虹が見えることも。「飛騨美濃紅葉三十三選」にも選出された紅葉は、色鮮やかな木々と渓谷の荒々しさのコントラストが見ものです。

kama 釜 hollows, riverpools
In the river Fuefukigawa there were two hollows and then from Mitomi the lumber was transported downriver.
If anything fell into the hollow, it was lost to the deep bottom.
To prevent things from getting lost, people made offerings of sakedaru 酒1樽 one barrel of sake rice wine and sekihan 赤飯 one dish of auspicious red rice to the Suijin 水神 Deity of Water.
The barrels and rice were bound together strongly and placed into the hollow in the evening. Next morning they would float empty on the water.

Kobo Daishi Kukai 弘法大師
Once upon a time,
弘法大師 Kobo Daishi was in 川浦地方 the Kawaura region and begged an old woman for some kayu 粥 rice gruel made with 粟 millet.
The old woman said she had kept some ヤマメ Yamame trout in the gruel and it tasted unpleasant, so she could not give it to him. Kobo Daishi said if she would let the fish back into the river, they will come back to life. When the old woman threw the boiled 山女魚 Yamame into the river, they came back to life and swam away with the rice gruel still on their bodies.
Since that time, the Yamame in the river 笛吹川 Fuefukigawa have some spots like millet grains on their body.
