Oni no Shitaburi Gorge - Shimane - 鬼の舌震

Right in the center of Shimane Okuizumo prefectural nature park with it's amazing mountains and forests is the scenic Oni no Shitaburi Gorge. The name Oni-no-shitaburi is derived from the Izumo Fudoki ancient story: “Wani-no-shitaburu”, where a shark (Wani) fell in love with the goddess of the land Ai. He started the night after night coming out of the sea of Japan to see his beloved goddess despite her disdain for Wani. To avoid been bothered by Wani every night, Ai banked-up the river making it harder for Wani to come and visit her. Still the more difficult and perilous journey it was for Wani the stronger his love for her grew. The name Oni-no-shitaburi is said to have evolved from a corruption in pronunciation from the original Wani-no-shitaburu. Accessible via a 2km long trek along the Oni no Shitaburi Gorge you will find some ancient eroded boulders and rocks created over the centuries by a powerful and rapid stream giving more weight to the Wani-no-shitaburu ancient story.
