You can also see the light from the inn. On a summer morning, you can see a magical view of sunlight from among the trees due to weather conditions. The water in the Enhara River is cold, but in the summer, the children are playing in the river energetically. Temperatures drop a lot in the river, so even those who escape the heat and cool off.

The water in the river shines a little deep in emerald green, the rock and moss landscape is fantastic, and it is a healing spot where the mind is purified.
