Todoroki Valley
|
Valley in residential Setagaya area
|
Albeit located just by Kanpachi driveway (Tokyo loop driveway
8), Todoroki valley is rich in nature attracting people all
year around as four seasons bring variety of the sceneries.
A number of water flows can be seen on ravines, of which most
famous is "Fudo no Taki" water drops in "Todoroki
Fudo" temple. The history of the temple goes back to
Heian era centuries ago. The entire area is said to be named
Todoroki (roaring sound) because of the vast water drop sound
of Fudo no Taki.
Although some people take the water at an inside park, local
hygiene authority instructs not to drink the water directly.
