In the middle of a quiet Japanese winter, where steam rises from hot springs and snow softens every sound, something extraordinary happens on **Lake Suwa**. The ice begins to heave, crack, and rise—forming jagged, frozen ridges that stretch across the lake like ancient scars. Locals call it **Omiwatari**, the “Crossing of the Gods.”

As soon as I dipped my toes into the crystal-clear pool at the base of Erawan Falls, I knew this place was something special. It wasn’t just another waterfall – it felt like stepping into a living postcard, where every tier above held a new surprise, a new shade of turquoise, a fresh splash of adventure. Welcome to Thailand’s photographic wonder, Erawan National Park.
