Awamata Falls (Yoro Valley)
粟又の滝Chiba · Kanto
The largest waterfall on the Boso Peninsula, in Otaki Town's Yoro Valley — a ~30m-high, ~100m-long 'nametaki' (sloped, sliding-rock cascade) rather than a sheer drop, with a riverside promenade alongside it. One of Chiba's few genuine mountain-valley/nature landscapes, famous for autumn foliage (late Nov-early Dec).
