About 6 feet high, this water wheel is located at small cabin near Bokusui Waterfall, the origin of the water.

Bokusui Waterfall is a man-made waterfall located in Hitsujiyama Park in Chichibu City, known for its springtime lawn cherry blossoms. Named after the poet Wakayama Bokusui, who visited Chichibu several times during the Taisho era (1912-1926), there is a monument nearby.

You can enjoy nice hiking course to get here from the Seibu Train Seibu-Chichibu station.
