The gorge stretches for approximately 6 miles (10 kms) along the Okimizu River and is lined with a canopy of trees and other flora, including maple trees that turn a brilliant red in autumn. After a hike along this refreshing stream, a visit to the rhododendron forest is a must. In spring, 30,000 rhododendrons of 500 species bloom between the trees, creating a canvas of color beneath the boughs. Visitors to the area should also sample Gold Ikura Don, a dish of golden salmon roe on rice known for its rich, flavorful texture, which can only be found here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\"
