Ashiribetsu Falls is a waterfall upstream with TakinoXZQ245X. The difference is 26 meters. One of the the 100 Selected Waterfalls of Japans. The name comes from the Ainese Asilibeth (new river). Asyrivets are also a source of rich local names.

Overview

Tens of thousands of years ago, there was a huge volcanic eruption that formed the peripheral cinder, and the southern part was covered with pumice, pumice, and pumice deposits. Similarly, buried tributaries returned to the stream when the eruption subsided, and they resumed their eating activity, but only the weak cologne of Scothia, which covers the valley, were absorbed into the valley, and the strong solvents remained as a narrow, stylus cliff. The altitude difference turned into a waterfall. Then, by the pioneer, a water mill was built on the top of the waterfall and produced such things as a plate that was made thin. In 1886, after the conversion of Toshishishigi, the project ended at Hokkaido's policy, and only the location of the site remained until the beginning of the Great War. XXQ 130X Road 341 passes through the falls.
