Leisurely explore an ancient temple nestled in green-covered mountains
About this spot
An ancient temple known for Jizo worship spread on the middle slope of the Yata hills. The temple grounds are enveloped by lush green trees, and even in summer you can feel the cool mountain breeze, creating a calm and peaceful atmosphere. Climbing the stone steps along the approach and visiting several halls makes the stroll itself a pleasant experience. A perfect place to take a breather in the quiet temple grounds away from the hustle and bustle before the night's fireworks.
