Shomyo Falls

Shomyo Falls are located in the town of Tateyama, Toyama Prefecture, Japan. Shomyo-daki is the highest waterfall in Japan at 350 m (1,148 ft). The falls have four stages: the first 70 m, the second 58 m, the third 96 m and the last 126 m high. The biggest amount of water flows through the falls in the early summer, when the snow covering the Tateyama Mountains melts.

And, its neighbor, Hannoki Falls, is usually considered the seasonable tallest, for it only has water from April to July when the snow covering the Midagahara plateau melts. Shown as the photo, Hannoki and Shōmyō falls are twin waterfalls.vvv
