Mugenkyo (perhaps you meant Mugenkyo Gorge?)
Mugenkyo is a mountain sightseeing spot in Mishima Town, Onuma District, Fukushima Prefecture. The now-abandoned village could only be reached by crossing the Tadami River by ferry. In some seasons the river is covered in mist, creating a fantastical scene as the ferry passes through it. It is about 50 minutes by car from Nanukamachi-dori in Aizuwakamatsu.
