Heart-shaped Light

Located in Kimitsu, Chiba Prefecture, Nomizo Falls and Kameiwa Cave offer a serene natural retreat. The cave, originally constructed over 350 years ago as an irrigation tunnel, features a small waterfall flowing through its arch. During early mornings around the spring and autumn equinoxes, sunlight streaming through the cave reflects on the water to create a heart-shaped illumination—a phenomenon that has captivated visitors and photographers alike .Surrounding Shimizu Keiryu Park enhances the experience with seasonal highlights: lush greenery in summer, vibrant foliage in autumn, and fireflies lighting up the area in early summer
