Here? One of the best power spots in Tohoku is "Dewa Sanzan" in Yamagata. Dewasanzan is a general term for the three mountains in this region, Mt. Haguro, Mt. Gassan, and Mt. Yudono. There are shrines at the summits of each of the three mountains, and these are collectively called Dewasanzan Shrine. In addition, visiting these three mountains was considered a "reborn trip" in the Edo period. One of the Dewasanzan Shrines, "Dewa Shrine," is located on the summit of Mt. Haguro. There are times when you cannot climb Mt. Gassan and Mt. Yudono, but you can basically visit Mt. Haguro, where Dewa Shrine is located, all year round. In addition, Dewa Shrine is a major tourist destination because it has the "Sanjin Gosaiden", which is a festival of the three gods of Dewa Sanzan. Point The approach to the shrine is a long staircase, and there are 2,446 stone steps to climb while walking along cedar trees that are over 300 years old. It takes about 1 hour and 30 minutes from Zujinmon gate at the entrance of the approach to the summit. What's the highlight? There are many highlights because there are many historical buildings, and in addition to the long stone steps, there are "Five-storied Pagoda" designated as a national treasure, "Yasugi" which is said to be 1,000 years old, and "Sanjin Gosaiden" with a large thatched roof where the three gods of Gsan, Hagoyama, and Yudonoyama are enshrined. [There is also a goshuin-sho! ] Dewa Shrine Entrance Zujinmon Gate The entrance of dewa Shrine is located about a 2-minute walk from the 1st parking lot on the sidewalk. Point There is also a goshuin-sho near the torii gate. Pass through the vermilion-colored Zujinmon Gate and aim for the summit. [It is also photo-valid!] Suga Falls and Exogawa Kamihashi Bridge A little 5 minutes' walk from Zujinmon Gate, you will see a red bridge (Exogawa Shinbashi). The waterfall seen from the Exorcist Shinbashi bridge is Suga Falls. The waterfall is behind the shrine of Exorcagawa Shrine, and this area is also a picturesque landscape. [Tohoku's oldest! ] Five-storied pagoda It is about a 10-minute walk from Zujinmon Gate. It is the oldest five-storied pagoda in the Tohoku region, and algan to be rebuilt, it is said that it was built about 600 years ago. It is in the forest, and there is a harsh air. It is also designated as a national treasure, and you can feel the history. It is a splendid five-storied pagoda from a distance or close to each other. It seems to light up at night, so if you are interested, please refer to the homepage etc. [1,000 years old! ] Yasugi Near the five-storied pagoda, there is Jijisugi, which is said to be 1000 years old. The circumference of the tree is about 10m, and it has a different presence from the surrounding cedar trees. The picture taken with the five-storied pagoda is a picture. Jijisugi is 1000 years old, but the five-storied pagoda was rebuilt in about 600 years, so it is said to be a cedar that has existed before that. Both of them have a romance just to think that they have been around for a long time, far beyond the life of us humans. [The time to the summit is 1.5 hours!] 2446 stone steps Climb the 2446-step stone steps to Dewa Shrine. I have the impression that there are many places where each stone step of the approach is not such a big step, but there was also a place that was a little steep. There are not only places that are like stairs, but also many places that are flat. The place where it is a staircase is also difficult, but I think that it is a point that I feel that it is difficult to have a long distance to the summit. The approach was mostly shaded even in summer, but it is still hot when walking. There is "Ninosaka Chaya" in the middle of the approach, so you can take a break. On both sides of the approach, there are a total of about 600 cedar trees lined up, and it is one of the highlights of Dewa Shrine. [You can also have shojin cuisine!] Hagoyama Saikan It is a reservation system, but you can have shojin cuisine at the saikan near the summit of Mt. Hago. In addition, it is said that general guests can stay now, so please check the homepage etc. for details. Homepage Hagoyama Sandosho "Saikan" | Dewa Sanzan Shrine Official Website http://www.dewasanzan.jp/publics/index/64/ [The shrine of the large thatched roof that was combined with the three gods! ] Sanjin Gosaiden You can visit. The Sanjingo Shrine on the summit of Mt. Haguro is the largest shrine in Japan that enshrines the three gods of Mt. Gassan, Mt. Haguro, and Mt. Yudono. The shrine was rebuilt in the first year of Bunsei (1818) and has a thatched roof, but when I took the picture, it was just being re-thatched. After visiting, it is also beautiful to look over the "Kagami Pond" in front. [Bell more than 700 years ago! ] Hagoyama Bell The large bell at Dewa Shrine has a name of 1275 years old, and is the second largest bell after Todai-ji temple and Kongomine-ji Temple. It is located near the Sanjin Gosaiden. [Get to know the Three Mountains of The Three Mountains of Leave! ] Ideha Cultural Memorial Hall The Ideha Cultural Memorial Museum is located about a 3-minute walk from Zuijinmon Gate, and there is a permanent exhibition where you can enjoy learning about Dewa Sanzan culture. I think that it is also good to visit Dewa Shrine before visiting and purchase information about Dewa Sanzan. Homepage It is a cultural memorial | Hago Town Tourism Association https://hagurokanko.jp/p26/ Place [Mt. Moon in the background! ] Haguroyama Otorii The Otorii, which is about 5 minutes by car, is also a highlight.

(1) Dewa Sanzan Shrine Parking Lot ・ About 40 cars capacity ※ Close to the entrance of the approach　 (2) Ino Cultural Memorial Hall ・ About 50 cars are accommodated ※ There is a free parking lot on the premises　 (3) Parking lot in front of Zujinmon Gate ・ About 120 cars ※ Near prefectural road (Line 47) ※ Wide, but a little far from the approach How to worship without climbing long stone steps?　What is the parking lot in that case? The 2446-step stone steps are difficult, and in winter when there is snow, it is recommended that there is a toll road (Mt. Hago toll road) that can be reached to the summit of Mt. Hago by car. For details, please visit a separate page. https://dora-tabi.com/hagurosan-yuryodoro/ If you are going by toll road, you can go to sanjin goriden by walking on a flat road for about 5 minutes from the mountaintop parking lot at the end. The parking fee was free, so I think it's an image that is included in tolls on toll roads. Mt.

Here? Misaki Park is located on the outskirts of Iwaki City, and it is close to the sea, so it is a pleasant park to take a walk. Because it is a park on a high level, there are several places with a good view in the park. One of them is the Shio-ming, where you can enjoy views of the Pacific Ocean and the cliffs along the coastline. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); How do I get to the tide stand from the 1st parking lot? The 2nd and 3-minute walk from the parking lot will be reached. It is a flat road, so it is immediately. It's not enough to walk.... In that case, let's take a walk in the park! Shio-ming (Observation Deck) You can go up the stairs. View from shio-edai The view of the Pacific Ocean and the coast is superb! The observation deck itself is in a high place, so the view is quite good. I could see the city of Iwaki. Shiomidai (observation deck protruding into the sea!?) ） Point On the sea side of Shiomidai, it is an observation deck that protrudes above the cliff. However, as of December 2020, unfortunately, it was off limits. Because there is a "part damaged part" in the color cone, there was a pasted paper saying that "I requested repair", so I would like to go again when I can put it.

Here? There are several viewpoints in the middle of the Fukuyama Glee Line, but it is one of the observation decks. (The "Green Line Observatory" may not be an official name because there seems to be no name notation on the observation deck.) Point If you look at the sea on the east side, you can see Tomonoura below, and if you look at the west side on the other side, you can see the Inland Sea Bridge and the scenery of the Seto Inland Sea spreads out. It is only the head of the bridge, but in the distance is Innjima Bridge of "Shimanami Kaido"? I could see even. It is a superb view. Observation deck on the east side (Tomonoura side) The observation deck on the east side is across the road from the parking lot. Please be careful when crossing because the speed of the car running is fast and the road curves slowly. What's the view? (Observation deck on the east side) You can't see the whole view of Tomonoura, but you can enjoy beautiful scenery including the tomonoura area. If you have binoculars, you can also see Sens intoxicated island and Tomonoura. Observation deck on the west side (Shimanami Kaido side) The observation deck is next to the parking lot. As you can see from the photo above, the view was good for those who looked at it from the parking lot (right photo) because the tree was disturbing (left photo) even if it went up to the observation deck. What's the view? (from parking lot) It is a scenery that seems to have come to Setouchi and Hiroshima. In a direction, I think that the sunset viewed from here is also beautiful.

Here? The view stand is an observation deck in the middle of the Ryudo night line from Goshogawara towards Cape Ryutoi. From the observation deck, you can see not only the Sea of Japan, but also Cape Ryuto and beyond hokkaido with the naked eye. Point The scenery is very good. When you drive the Ryuya Line, it is a place you want to visit by all means. Observation deck in the parking lot It is not the main observation deck, but there is also an observation deck in the parking lot. The view from here is good, but the recommendation is the observation deck at the end of the stairs from the parking lot. Observation deck with a panoramic view Go up the stairs next to the parking lot. If you go up to the parking lot above, it will be about 3 minutes from there to the observation deck. It's not steep, but it's a little long stairs.... arrival! When you finish going up the stairs breathlessly, you will see a concrete observation deck. But regret!! It was off limits. I dropped my shoulder and looked back to see if I'd go home, It was good, it was worth going up the stairs.... The superb view is spreading out! From there, you can look around and you'll see a great panorama! Hokkaido can be seen far away, but it is a good view that seems to be closer than I thought.

It takes about 1 hour and 20 minutes from the IC. Parking at the view The parking lot is free, and it is made of two steps, top and bottom, but is the upper one for large vehicles? It is like. I think that it is a little narrow only in the parking lot below, so I feel that it is likely to be full during the busy season. (The photo is in the evening, so there are no other cars.)

Somehow, it is a mysterious pond. Where's Mr. Maruike? It is about a 4-minute walk from the parking lot to Maruike-sama. When you get to Maruike-sama, you can walk around and take pictures from a place that looks beautiful. There was also a shrine in the back. It is a sacred atmosphere. Ushido River Around here.
