Taishakukyo runs for about eighteen kilometres through limestone in the north-east of Hiroshima and is one of the two great gorges of the prefecture. It has two halves that feel like different places. Upper Taishaku has caves, a walking route through the woods and Onbashi — a natural limestone arch ninety metres long and forty high, formed where a cave roof collapsed, and one of the largest natural bridges in the world.

The lower half is Shinryu-ko, a reservoir lake in a steep-sided valley, crossed by a red bridge and worked by a sightseeing boat that runs a forty-minute circuit with commentary. The boat operates from mid-March to early December and does not run in winter. Parking is charged at ¥500 for a car across all three car parks, which between them hold over five hundred vehicles.

인사이더 가이드

**Two halves, two visits.** Upper Taishaku for the caves and Onbashi on foot; Shinryu-ko for the lake and the boat. They are several kilometres apart and doing both takes a day. **Onbashi is a collapsed cave roof.** Ninety metres long, forty high, one of the largest natural rock bridges anywhere. It is the single thing to see if you only have time for one. **The boat stops for winter.** Mid-March to early December only, and it is cancelled in bad weather. Winter visits mean the walking side. **Parking is ¥500 everywhere.** All three car parks charge the same. There are over five hundred spaces between them, which on a November weekend still fills. **Late October to mid-November for colour.** This is upland country and the season is earlier than the coast by a fortnight.
