Azabu Gorge is a 1.6 km gorge located in the upstream of the Hazama River, which flows out of Mt. Kurikoma in the northern part of Miyagi Prefecture. It is known as a scenic place where eroded rocks create wonderful figurative art of nature.

The varied scenery of the gorge includes two waterfalls, to both of which visitors can get near by taking the walking trails. The Fudo Waterfall flows down gently with a full river width, while the Shikan-no-taki Waterfall flows down dynamically with splashes of water from the narrow torrent.

In summer, a lot of people come to enjoy fishing, viewing fresh tender green and bathing in cool flow of water. In fall, dense foliage covering rocks turn red and yellow and add flamboyant colors to the landscape. Viewing beautiful red and yellow patterns created on rock surfaces and listening to the sounds of stream, you will be able to spend a luxurious time of refreshment and relaxation.
