(Legend of Kintaro location)
A waterfall related to Yaegiri that possesses a poetic beauty. One day, while sleeping on the top of Mt. Kintoki, Kintaro's mother Yaegiri had a dream she was married to a red dragon, and upon waking, found she was pregnant with a son. The villagers who saw Yaegiri underneath the rushing waterfall praying for the health of her newborn Kintaro were so moved by the sight that they came to call this place the Yūjo Falls. At that time, women who were involved in religion and traveled around the world were known as "Yūjo". Due to the damage from a typhoon in 2019, it is currently inaccessible.
