What is a frozen waterfall? Only during the harsh winter, when the bitterly cold weather and weather conditions are just right, does Fukuroda Falls transform into a work of white ice known as a "frozen waterfall." The entire waterfall freezes over, and the sight of giant icicles forming in layers is breathtaking. The ice palace that covers the 120-meter-high rock wall is a miraculous sight created by nature.

Shiga (ice flowers) is a phenomenon that occurs when frozen ice rises to the surface of the riverbed and flows like slush on cold winter mornings when temperatures drop below -5°C. This winter spectacle, which can be seen mainly on the Kuji River that flows through Fukushima and Ibaraki prefectures from January to February, is famous for its mystical appearance as it glitters in the morning sun.

We successfully captured drone footage of the Shiga, which creates a fantastical effect on the Kuji River in winter.

A miraculous moment that can only be seen a few times a year. A two-hour scene that appears only when six conditions are met: 1. Temperature difference, 2. Sunny weather, 3. No wind, 4. Humidity, 5. Early morning, 6. Gentle flow. And the seventh is "luck"... On a morning when all three conditions are met, the river is bathed in light. The moment the morning sun touches the mist, the world is reborn in gold. When the sun rises, it disappears. That's what makes it so beautiful. But...
