What visitors say
Stone-paved paths and stairs continue throughout the grounds, where beautiful moss, sacred trees, and stone monuments can be seen. Considerations are made for visitors, such as routes that allow learning about history at the Mahoroba History Exploration Hall before worship, or borrowing bear bells for the visit. It is a place where one can enjoy autumn leaves and solemn worship in a quiet atmosphere.
