Located around 150 m above sea level, Kameda Fudō Waterfall stands about 25 m tall and 10 m wide. Its water, which flows abundantly throughout the year, looks like a white cloth hanging from the rock face.
If you look closely at the rock you can see systematic cracks, giving the rock a column-like appearance. These cracks are called columnar joints. They formed when the lava that flowed here cooled and hardened slowly, shrinking and causing cracks to appear. Columnar joints are most commonly hexagonal (six-sided), but can take other shapes as well, such as square or octagonal (eight-sided).
