夫婦岩(めおといわ) — photo spot in 1901 Mitakedō, Ueda, Nagano 386-0412, Japan
夫婦岩(めおといわ)
A pair of sacred “married” rocks joined by a shimenawa rope on the lakeshore, framed by Nagano mountains. Shoot the intimate cultural detail of the rope and torii with reflections on calm water; the site is reachable by a short walk from nearby parking and has no entry fee. Best at sunrise or sunset for warm side-light and mirror reflections; clear, windless mornings yield glassy water. Weekdays and early mornings are least crowded. Respect the religious site and avoid climbing on the rocks.
