Spend quiet time at an ancient temple surrounded by the greenery of Mount Nooage
About this spot
An ancient temple nestled near the summit of Mount Nooage, the symbol of Wakuya Town. The grounds surrounded by deep green are filled with tranquility, and cool mountain breezes blow pleasantly through the valley. There are also scenic viewpoints where you can overlook Wakuya's rural landscape from the heights. Spending time away from the hustle and bustle in nature provides a good respite before the evening fireworks.
