Overview
Gongaga (ゴンガガ [gongaga] in Japanese) is a small frontier town in Final Fantasy VII. It's located at the very south of the western continent, almost directly south of the Gold Saucer and south-east of Cosmo Canyon.
Not much happens in Gongaga. Once, the Shinra Company built a mako reactor in the area, but it blew up, supposedly sabotaged by AVALANCHE. Since then, the village has languished, most the people who lived in the area having died in the explosion.
Most notably, Gongaga is the birth place of Zack Fair, whose parents still live in the area. An unnamed turk, known by the moniker Katana, is also from Gongaga.
Locations
Gongaga/Destroyed Reactor
The destroyed reactor, as it is known in the present day, is the remnants of the Gongaga reactor built by Shinra.

Quests
Crisis Core
Waterfall Chests
Fight 7 or more battles up the hill to activate this minigame. After, when you come upon the waterfall you'll notice a treasure chest floating down. Choose the option 'I bet there'll be more' to start.
In the minigame, your goal is the catch the chests and avoid the monsters. Chests will net you more treasure, monsters will stun you, making you miss chests. The monster/chest pattern is always the same, and repeats until the minigame ends.
The pattern is 1. Chest (middle), 2. Monsters (left & right), 3. Chest (far left), 4. Chest (far right).
In the prize chart below, each reward is cumulative. For example, with 8 chests you'll get an elixir, X-potion and a hi-potion.
Chests | Reward |

0 | - |
1-4 | Hi-Potion |
